how to approach case studies

Hi

What is a good way to approach business studies case study questions so that when answering questions on it I'm not just looking for the relevant section?

I'm trying to make notes on the different themes, but I struggle to bring it all together in the answers.

No, sorry. It's actually university level, but I've been out of education for a bit. I vaguely remember doing a case study at A level, but the teacher nornally takes you through it.

Hey guys I've little question regarding the unit 4a paper. Since the case study is released earlier does edexcel post it individual candidates or what? I have the case study with the past papers (jan 2011). Am I suppose to get it mailed to me or do they give it at the exam?
