Justice done in second part. Job well done. Conclusion is impressive. However not able to understand relevance of first part of your answer. Looks like you were short of words so scribbled something from Weber for the sake of it. When you have so much to write for this answer then why to waste words on something irrelevant to thr question asked.

This is how I like my answers to be... TO THE POINT- no deviations. As it was a ‘Comment’ question so you’ve aptly not attempted any analysis. However more explanation is required. Mujhe do baar padhna padha to understand whether you’ve covered the demands of the question- examiner nahi padhega.. katai!!

Could have explained your diagram more. Your diagram is just a diagram. No explanations given in answer. It can turn out to be a blunder.

Some good content in answer but where’s the explanation for your diagram. Believe me it’s not self understood and more pain you’ll give to examiner to understand your answer more ‘majdoori’ he’ll deduct from your marks.

Here is my answer..

Sorry I was unable to directly add photos

Okkk... so first things first. In a 150 words answer you’ve mentioned other thinkers and Weber got sidelined. Examiner har baar poora answer nhi padhta . I’v read 6 answers and now I’m searching for keywords, explanations n diagrams (explanation for diagrams) ... you attempted the graphic presentation Very Well but invested the time for explanation in Simon despite it being a ‘comment’ question only .@Bhagat-singhto pls take note.
PSU example was a smart move. Kudos to that!!

And I was wondering abhi tak ye kyu ni poocha kisine?

After practising around 350 diagrams... it takes not more than 1 minute to draw a diagram for me . One nicely explained diagram channelise your thought process and cuts down time to attempt the explanation as well. You just have to see the diagram and explain. So little effort in practice and you getting good marks....not a bad deal I guess.?
