Exactly the same, took me 2 mins to think about it, it was a trick question, a lot of people fell down the trap of 'roles'

Yesss exactly, my first thought was legit “roles of an entrepreneur” lol but yeah had to rethink

For the entrepreneur motives I wrote profit motive and motive to carry out a social objective (being ethical with the sustainable cups) is that right?

Is an A possible with no conclusions?😭

Wdym no conclusions - like poorly written ones, or none at all, for all the Qs. Bcuz if I'm real with u, probably not. Conclusions make up 26 marks (30 if you include the however pts for the 8 marker). You would have to score full/close to full marks everywhere else pretty much because its usually 65-68/100 for an A

Timing was so bad. I didn’t write conclusions for 3 questions ahh I’m so scared now 😔

I didn’t either, didn’t wanna lose out on extra marks on the other questions and I thought I’m more likely to gain more marks on other questions than lose like 4-6 on conclusion

i did the sales revenue cause they sold out, i think that ones important but that was the only thing you could realistically do, you couldnt do anything like cap utilisation
