ABSTRACT

One special skill you should have developed is that of being able to think on your feet, especially when you are confronted with media products that you are not familiar with but which you need to assimilate quickly. You will find some useful tips in this book to help you develop this skill but it is worth keeping in mind how important this ability will be at both AS and A2 levels. Spending a few minutes every day getting used to focusing deeply on a media product or a media issue you happen to come across will significantly enhance your abilities to tackle both the MEST1 and MEST3 exams. Do bear this in mind. There are a number of tips throughout this book which should help you do it.
