What if I get a question in the exam that I don't know how to answer?

First off, don't panic. What can seem like a scary question at first will usually turn out to be more simple than imagined and is simply worded oddly or different than you'd imagine. Take a minute to properly read the question and if necessary, break down the contents or simplify it to make the question easier to understand.
