From this question i need to add theories into my answer and use more media terminology. Also i need to expand on my points and go into more detail. 

Representation question

I need to come up with specific examples and go into a more detail with them. I need to make sure I don't just speak general about the example and talk specific about it. I also need to use different uses of language, to explain my points a lot more. 

Revision and study

I need to do more revision before the exam and not do it the day before. I also need to make sure i plan when i am going to revise, and do it.
