You will need to master the skills from finding

1. purpose PAMOV (problem, audience, messgae, intended outcome of speaker and verd)

2. tone (bias, objective, one sided, negative etctec)

3. Reliability enhanced (highest level!)

you can ask your teacher about these skills and i am sure she will help you. i am taking my Os this year too and this format seems to work for me! in my recent SS midyears, i got 78 (: heh.

if you wish to know more, just PM me (:

PRO! :D *clap claps.

EHHHHS~ can we like form one study group? :s

Hmm, my teacher gives notes on how to answer source based questions. There are skills on how to answer CERTAIN type of questions. At one sight you will have to spot what kind of question it is and answer using the skills.
