ohh yeah ok i get it lol. god im still soo scared. i think im gonna get worse than an E this time round lol.

[Tipitman]

I doubt that lol, as long as you flllow that structure and just put in some keywords for anaylsis and evaluation you should be fine.

[lilsi]

I think i'm goin to follow that sort of structure Tipitman.
I'll do 4 headings for Plan
-Problem
-Context
-My Objectives
-Assumptions

Report

Simply do a paragraph on Terms of reference and the background underneath the Report Title.

Then then the headings.

Option X
Option Y
Recommendation.

Do you think thats too little, possibly break up options X and Y into fruther sub-headings?

You could do it that way, I'm not sure how it would be recived by examiner but it does say there is no deffinate structure so yeh why not give it ago, but if your doing it that way maybe try putting sub headings on each disscusion point in option x and y.

[storminaDcup]

yes, ok i'm quoting directly from the paper; just follow what it says and you won't go wrong.

PLAN:
problem
context
objectives i.e examine cost and benefits of option 1 & 2 & recommend.
assumptions

REPORT
-terms of ref..i am writing this report for blabla..
-select appropriate info for the task. evidence from the case must be used, theory, own research etc
-analyse the evidence in line with the objectives (i.e. link to the options, because that as one of your objectives)
-recommend the best option in your view

so basically, yeah yours is fine

only recommended to spend about 50 mins writing the report btw x

[Tipitman]

I wouldnt spend 50 mins but I guess if it reccomends it lol, I mean it doesn't take that long to look at data, and you want to make sure it is actually laided out as a report and the subheads on paper dont help with that.

Still I was so close to A on mine guess why I didnt get it, not enough lvl 4 words lol.

[sachin4u]

lol such as?

just so we don't make the same mistake

[Tipitman]

lol, things like overall, taking the above into account, weighing in the positive and the negitive blah blah blah

[storminaDcup]

how much more revision are u guys going to do on this

[Tipitman]

Well I know background stuff off back of my head anyway so just some stuff on boston matrix and ansof matrix maybe a business plan finace not massive amounts tho not like I would for biology lol.

[Honeypepper]

wat about investment appraisels? payback and stuff?

[Tipitman]

Guess you could do but I know some of that stuff anyway so in my case it would be pointless lol.

[Honeypepper]

yeah yeah, well for me its got to the point that ive done so many resits, i practically kno everything! lol.i just dnt kno how to use any of it which is my problem.

[Tipitman]

Well why not do any practise questions?

[Honeypepper]

hmm yeah i cld do, right now im revising for my exam tomorrow. its in the afternoon, then im meeting up with my teach for some last minute research and help. i guess il have to do some tonight then.

i mean its basicallylike any other case study isnt it. the analysis part that so u will be saying things like "it is expensive but will be worth it in the long run because...." that sort of thing.

[Tipitman]

Yeh it is but you just have to make sure that you put it in the right layout.

[storminaDcup]

i have an english exam tomorrow afternoon so i only have 4pm-10pm tomorrow night and then the next morning 6am - 1pm revision left..

[Honeypepper]

hey what english exam do u have? i have the edexcel unit 4 varieties one

[Tipitman]

Unlucky, just memorise a layout and you will be fine

[Honeypepper]
