    Edexcel International Business Unit 3 retake
    Hi all,

    I took the retake of this exam yesterday and think it went fine, but just worried about the amount of points I raised and if anyone could shed some light on whether or not I will lose marks.

    Last time I took it (got a mid B) I raised about 2 points on either side and did a conclusion, but found that because I was trying to raise each point, analyse and evaluate it, it was hard to make sure I answered all of the questions (and I often ended up not explaining properly so not actually answering the question directly or correctly)

    This time round, I took more time out to answer the question directly and ensure I got knowledge, analysis, application and evaluation into each point I raised, but because of this only managed to raise 1 point for and 1 point against in the time allocated for evaluate questions (along with a conclusion of course.) Most of these were for 8 or 10 mark questions, so I am just wondering if one point on each side will be enough to get the full 8/10 marks or if I didn't include enough different points (the points I did raise were well analysed though.)

    Thanks in advance to someone who can help,

    Matt
