Edexcel Business GCSE Paper 1 (1BS0/01) - 18th May 2023 [Exam Chat]

To be fair, i did think that the last 12 marker was a bit of a curve ball but I think I pretty much aced it because I think all it wanted was you to acknowledged that some potential customers might have valued the fact that the company produced green energy (product) whereas other customers might value the price more.

thats what i put as some are more enviromentally aware compared to some.

guys do you think I can get a grade 9 I skipped 10 pages of the test because I didn't think we had to answer then. I didn't realise until I had 2 mins left of the test we had to answer the whole test.

Might not be likely but you never know, it really depends on the grade boundaries

Maybe, it depends how well you do on paper 2, as your grade is an average of the two.

I found it alright - not the best case studies, but it was manageable for me.

Overall the exam was nice the last 12 marker definitely was a bit questionable but section A was extremely easy, the calculations were nice as well if you knew the equations. I’m shocked out how tight the timings were though how people did it in an hour and a half i don’t know!

How was Paper 2???

Blud thinks we are gonna give him the paper....
go revise fam
because you need to sit the exam as if you have never seen the paper before for 2 reasons
one so you know at what actual grade you are at
and to not get shocked by the real exam
BTW it is not locked :confused:
