I always struggle with timing I never finish a paper I always end up leaving a 10 or 12 marker and half way finishing a 20 marker so annoying


and thinking of a good chain takes time but i think i write fast thats why i finish on time but ideas take time to generate

omg same. i don’t even know how it happens…


you guys aren;t the only ones loadss of people do it.. one girl in my class left out a 20 marker and the other both the 12 markers in paper 1 ... why hasen;t edexcel realised this as a problem and changed the times i would be happy to sit their for 2 hr 45 mins but they do say "a mark a minute"

I mean if you are taught well you won't run out of time. Like paper 1 and 2 no one at my school ran out of time because we practice a lot of mock papers and have got good at pacing ourselves

omg literally same, he just makes slides and stands infront of the class just blabbing about things, and then he expects us to understand. we have 2 different classes for business and the second class always ace their exams because their teacher is so good and were just there like wut??

any predictions? Isn’t it kind of limited because it’s on the car market specifically.


How do you know it's the car market?

bro havent u seen the pre- release😅😅 it's on the car market but you don't have to do tons of research they could ask about manufacturers, service providers or even a car wash but the thing is that the pre - release gives an ish of an hint to the topics as you can guess which topics relate to cars ....
this guy gives some predictions but the videos really long so i could sum it up but i've only watched 23 mins - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeH3wmxHyHM&t=1387s

for what i've watched he says

tarrifs and imports
design mix

others are saying

lean production
kaizen
capacity utilisation
quality control / circles
resource managment
managing people
entrepreneur to leader
external influence
the market
competitive environment

just to make you feel better, for paper 1 i missed out 2 10 markers and a 12 marker; for paper 2 i missed out 1 10 and one 12. what makes it worse is these papers have been so nice i think but its just the timings that get me

Maybe one of the liquidity ratios or an interpretation of decision trees or CPA, btw would it be given to us on a diagram or would we have to draw the whole thing out for both

just fill them out or add any changes no need to draw anything

You may have to "construct" a decision tree, however I would say that this is very unlikely
