You may scrape a C or B depending on the boundaries. I only had 10 mins for the 20 marker so didnt do too well I expect. Just aim for an A on Tuesday to secure a better grade. :smile:

I can try and make some sort of a mark scheme later if you guys want

unoffical mark scheme i made, not sure if all are right, but its not bad.
I am just worried about the question on social trend, for first social trend i wrote about online and how more people ahve acess to it and then said it will force them to set up website and blah blha
For other trend i couldnt really think so i wrote about how people now days are concerned about renewable source and environment friendly so i talk about that business could use distribution thta involve less use of transport :frown: i think i lost it

that was my worst question/answer by far too! although your answer seems way better than what i made up!
there was a question asking for 2 non-price things on the car question and i chose some that were non money but to evaluate and asses it i did talk about price, would this be wrong? only such as people may therefore choose cheaper cars, not anything too much in depth.

Yep, when they said non-price it meant that you cant use price as a factor which if you raise or lower affetc the demand but if you picked up factor and evaulauted and loterally discus about its cost and affect, it doesnt matter

That is well too complicated. You'd never finish the exam. A simple

(K) What? - adv/disav/factor
(AP) How? - evidence in the stimulus
(AN) Why? - show an effect or consequence using you Business knowledge
(E) Why not? - what's a problem with this (counterbalance)

These address the 4 skills you get marked for.

I dont know where you have got that from but that is a far too complicated way to construct a paragraph.


I think he meant that as a structure for a 20 mark question, and not just for one paragraph.

For a 20 mark paragraph you do what's below

(K) What? - adv/disav/factor
(AP) How? - evidence in the stimulus
(AN) Why? - show an effect or consequence using you Business knowledge
(E) Why not? - what's a problem with this (counterbalance)

(K) What? - adv/disav/factor
(AP) How? - evidence in the stimulus
(AN) Why? - show an effect or consequence using you Business knowledge
(E) Why not? - what's a problem with this (counterbalance)

Then a heavy evaluation

-Decision
-Evidence and Why
-Why is your option chosen better than the other one and why
-How do you address the counterbalance of the your chosen option and why
