    Lol anyone?

    Well the one I have is called " business a dynamic world" it is fairly descent has all the main points. If you learn all that book you will get an A1!!!!

    "The Business" by John O sullivan is good, but demands a serious amount of learning. But if you do learn it its an A1 :)

    I had 21st Century Business and thought it was brillant and really helpful.

    Global Business is really student friendly and probably the best book available

    Relax. Its a pretty easy subject. I did it by self study and got an A1 and I have come to accept I might not be Einstein reincarnated.

    Hi quiz. Can I ask what did you do studywise to get your A1? Did you work off exam papers or what?. Where did u get your notes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 427 ✭✭RebelScorned


    I can't remember the name of my book but there was a japanese woman on the front though I did my LC in 2005. I got an A1 in business and honestly you are overly fretting, just put loads of headings in your answers, have really good structured responses and don't waffle.

    Bear in mind that simply regurgitating the material in the book does not an A1 make. Read the papers, commercial awareness is a big advantage. :) Hope that helps!

    21st Century Business is written by one of the Business teachers in the Institute. Laid out perfectly and is very concise, all you need for the exam. Used it for my LC and got an A2, with not a whole lot of study.

    The best 'book' and the one the exam will be based on, is the syllabus.
