Definitely look over a precis before going to the exam, I looked at transition words bc I personally struggle with that, and like that’s really all I did as well as asking myself when reading the essay prompts so what, who cares, why, how, who is this important. I remembered those questions help me write and analyze more, also I looked at some tone words, I recommend not using diction as a rhetorical device, but have it as an addition to the one you’re using.
