    Anyone ever get an A1 in Business?


    I'm looking for the highest possible grade in Business because it's my favourite subject and I find it really interesting; anyone else like it?


    What are everyones predicitions for this year's paper? The only thing I tend to have some diffuculties with is the ABQ, but I'm practising away with it.


    I wreckon something about the Marketing Mix and International Trade will come up in the ABQ and the Labour Relations Commission/Labour Court and Human Resource Management will be on the Long questions?


    What do you think of Business and what are your predictions?


    Remember - it is only 36 days till' the Business paper....

    36 days. Thats seems like ages.
    Ya some, ABQ's can be kinda bad, like it's a real struggle to find relevant quotes, but i guess its the same for everyone.
    Prediction- im hoping for a Break even chart
    Human resource management(my least fav chapter)
    nothing else comes to mind except maybe marketing mix.

    I like business except 3 hrs isnt enough to write everything you want for each question...so timing is the key

    98% in pre's made me very happy

    I got a B3 in my mocks which made me happy. Didn't do much work for it. It was my best result.

    Hope to get a B1 in the real thing.

    My teacher tipped cashflow? and most magazines are tipping HRM. unit 1 is a long question every year and so is unit 3 since 1999. The Abq units are 5,6,7 so all you have to do is learn units 1,3,5,6,7 with every teacher tipping unit 4 so 1,3,5,6,7 considering unit 2 is so short we'll chuck that in so units 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 (the entire course).
    Sorry, predictions are a gamble. would you gamble your college course?

    Same got a B3 (72%), was fairly happy with it and hope to bring that up to a B1 myself,
    I do enjoy business, in fact I intend to study commerce next year at UCC...

    As for prediction I try to stay away from it in business from the most part but obviously you should know things like people in business and business structure becuase they come up every year... and there are some things that never come up... but for the most part I learn everything,

    I find the course to be very small and nothing is all that difficult and generally common sense.

    Fair play to the guy who got 98% in his mocks though
