Which businesses have you done? And what information do you search. Like the CEO, Market Share, Profits???

you research the information on the bullet points.

The EU referendum is the day after our exam, we've had theory on it it is incredibly topical

I was also wondering why Business students doing this exam aren't active but maybe most students haven't started it yet.... If you see previous year threads they began from May/June.... But that's too late tbh.

And I was told by my teacher that for Section B in BUSS4 the EU or Retrenchment could come up as they haven't come up since this course began. But not too sure...

Hey guys, there isnt a clear thread for A2 AQA Business so I thought Id make one for us. So lets just share techniques and help each other out as much as we can.

At what point is everyone at? We have just started going through the pre-release theme for this year.

is there one for university students doing business management? cant find and help anywhere in terms of past papers etc

Hi,
Struggling to revise for BUSS4, for BUSS I have done mind maps around the syllabus but its the exam technique that will get you all the marks i.e. clear lines of analysis and use of business examples and business models. not looking forward to either of the exams to be honest. Also resitting both BUSS1 and BUSS2, but they are much easier to revise for as the exam technique is easier to understand.

What type of theory have you been given? I've been given little details on the EU but not enough the create a full essay question on, unless your supposed to include PESTLE analysis as it could be classed as a political factor, could it?

I don't think a full blown essay could ever come up about the EU for you to need to know a lot about it.

Hows the prerelease questions going tho?

Uh we've been given a lot of data and different types of questions for the EU I mean we can use the data we collect no matter which because it relates to everything... It will impact the stakeholders and it will impact mission aims and objectives, the pound is weakening which means imports are expensive and exports are cheap which is the economic environment, etc

I have made notes on all chp's for BUSS3, probably too late to do that now, but then just getting pass papers and doing 2 a week, 1 open book and then one closed book. With the closed book, time yourself and stick to the timings. If you dont finish - thats fine! Change color when the time is up, and with practice you will get better and better.

Closer to the exam I will go through my notes and make quick flash cards for gentle reminders of the content.
