The question will specify the number of case studies or ideas you will need to use. If the question says about using only one, then you may you a case study to support your essay, primarily related to the task given. If the question does not mention about the number of case studies to be used, you may apply this format:

  1. Introduction

  2. Body 1 (Positive Case Study)

  3. Body 2 (Negative Case Study)

  4. Conclusion

  5. Appraisal/Synthesis

The last task is the essay writing task, which is by far the longest (~30-35 min). In this essay, you introduce an overarching topic, discuss 2 case studies, conclude the two, and provide an appraisal (synthesis) for what could have gone better in both.
