What is Exam Technique?

I chatted to Gareth Olivier CA(SA) from Milpark – CA Connect about exam technique

Gareth's definition

“Can you communicate your knowledge? Does your work represent your potential? “

Yvonne's Definition

“Can you USE your knowledge to DO the task within the given parameters? “
