Business study??

Gav77

Was looking at the HL business exam papers and realised you can pretty much just study unit 1-5 and leave out 6 and 7 and still manage the 4 long questions? Besides maybe being caught in the shorts! Was pretty good at business so neglected it for the last few months, now theres loads to cover!! Any1 else have any thoughts on this?

Nope. You need units 1-5 to be anyway covered for the long questions.

Q1 is unit 1
Q2 is unit 6? (government and all that)
Q3 is Unit 7 (EU and all that jazz)

Questions 2 & 3 may need to be swapped around, but that is that anyway.

Then Q4-7 is a mixture from units 2-5.

You could manage with just 1-5.

Unit 1&2 thing is only for Biology, as Unit 1&2 makes up 80% of the paper.

yeah i didnt phrase that very well! Meant to say unit 1-5 and then leaving out 6 and 7..better edit that before people are like wtf:D

You cant really do it can you ? You have to do one question from the first question. Thats fine if the question on unit one is grand but if its not your in trouble. You cannot fluff business if you want good marks. Also if the questions in the second section dont suit you then your really going to have a hard time with the paper.

Unit 6 is the easiest Unit there is! Unit 7 is a close second..!

Don't leave them out..!

3, 4 and 5.

Management skills will be one of the questions on the ABQ I would guess.

It's true you are able to just study units 1-5 and leave out 6 & 7 but you would be severely restricting yourself + A majority of the short questions will be based on 1,2,6 & 7 , not on the units 3,4,5.

Just in case you were wondering, what came up on the mocks has no bearing on what comes up in June so don't let that affect your study!

Infracted, and given that you were infracted and warned about this behaviour just 10 minutes before you posted here, you can have a 4 day ban to cool your head as well.




As I said in that other thread, I know that everyone's nerves are on edge this close to the LC, but that does not give anyone permission to lose the run of themselves.

That is a general warning to everyone.

Anyone finished there business papers & just looking for a bit of a test revising should give these quizzes a go, there fairly easy if you know your stuff just a handy way of revising.

I'd also give a good look over the following I'd say they'll appear on the paper.

• Empowerment/TQM.
• Cash flow.
• Financial analysis.
• Business expansion.
• Business Ethics.
• Data commision act.

i think they might ask something like a business plan in the ABQ. Management skills will definitely dominate the paper. also break even charts are a possible and they're a pretty easy 40 marks once you know how to draw it.
I'm doing all units except 7 i just don't have time even though its probably the easier one but if you are doing unit 7 global marketing is on the paper nearly every year.

Do you really think a break-even chart is gonna be worth 40 marks ?
