They are all essay questions. The exam paper I have in front of me is June 2003 (Royal Supermarkets Ltd)
The allocation of marks per question is as follows

1) 14 marks
2) 16 marks
3) 16 marks
4) 16 marks
5) 18 marks

Oh yes, I'm looking forward to this exam already :eek:

What parts of the unit do you are most likely to come up? I think there will be stuff about the Euro, being thats its a current affair. What are the best bits to revise?

All of it

Objectives and Strategy is easy (common sense, like most of bus studs) so for the external influences I think you should know what the macro and micro environments are, how exchange rates and interest rates work and the opportunities and constrataints of a business, social audits etc. I don't have the exam til Thurs and the afternoon :smile:

I've looked through all my notes and can't find ANY on how to draw decision trees!! I've never been able to do them :frown:

Can someone scan me their notes for this area, please? Or is there anywhere I can get some quick help on the net?

I've never seen a paper where you've had to actually draw one though??

PS, if anyone has any notes, could you please post them here so I can get them in the morning before the exam :smile:

Ta.

It pisses me off when people say it is, simply because it has 'studies' in its title, people immediately assume that its linked to softer subjects like 'media studies' and 'general studies'. I worked hard to get my 'A' grade. Thank You bery much!
