The document discusses three types of exam questions: easy questions, hard questions, and nearly impossible questions. It advises students to slow down during exams to avoid careless mistakes, as rushing due to nerves can cause errors even on easy questions where full marks are needed. While students worry about running out of time, the document notes that difficult questions where a student guesses won't earn many marks anyway, so it's better to be careful than careless and lose more potential marks.
