- Questions first: always read all the questions before you read the text
- Text order: AQA questions follow the passage — use them to navigate section by section
- NOT GIVEN: only choose this when the text does not address the topic at all — not when you are uncertain
- Opinion signals: à mon avis, je pense que, il me semble que — mark a personal view, not a fact
- Inference: look for contrast markers (pourtant, cependant), evaluative adjectives, and intensifiers
- Attitude evidence: always give both the attitude AND the text evidence in your answer
- Tense check: always verify whether the verb is past, present or future before writing your answer
