How would you go about answering an exam question?

Firstly, you would start by stating or introducing a point. Secondly, you must provide evidence to support this point. A common way of doing this is by using research to support or challenge this point. Thirdly, you must link this evidence back to the question, to prove that you are actually answering what the question has asked.
