what type of culture would you describe zaposs's


In terms of Handy's classifications probably people culture, but i think it would be better to describe Zappos as having a family-like culture. I mean they refer to their employees as family members as opposed to workers, just like how John Lewis refers to its employees as partners

Other way around for me... what exam board did you do?

Edexcel! I'm not saying C4 was nice, but almost every question in C3 was tricky, it was the hardest paper I've ever done and I've done all the past papers and solomon papers lol

So do you also to Business, Maths and Economics?

is recession worth revising?
Original post by nadster
the good thing about setting low expectations is that you can only do better than you thought :smile:


Haha you are so right my friend. I have low expectations so therefore low pressure on me but I doubt il be able to get any higher than a C/D. Ive done my research and revision but barely none if any exam practise :rolleyes:
Given the length of the exam, how long should our essays be? Serious question. I understand exam technique etc, but just wondering what's a good amount.

Don't get me started on c3! It was a nightmare! C4 wasn't too bad though

You're being too harsh on yourself, as long as you've done your research and know your content, you're sorted mate:smile:

I know a friend who got the A* in January who told me he wrote around 3-4 sides per question, which is good because I can't possibly write anything more than that!

3/4 pages hand written should be plenty
