    It would be more useful to ask the posters what level they sat, or compare to other posts, to find out if they are OL.

    Do you remember any of the short questions for business? And long questions if possible?

    Yeah I do, only remember bits and pieces..
    Wide selection of short questions, but they are actually really easy for a change! ABQ is about a global business, the benefits it gives to the local and national economy, it's use of the marketing mix and how ICT benefits a business. Long Questions, question One was tricky enough, stuff about Data Commissioner, and sale of goods and supply of services act, don't remember much on it! Q2 had stuff about franchising the uses of a feasability study and prototype development, Q3 I didn't look at! Then Q4,5,7 were a mixture of stock control, credit control, risk management, democratic leadership, theory X approach.
    And there was a question in there somewhere about the benefits and drawbacks of a commerical state-owned company changing to private owned?
    Note: Nothing on EU, and no question that includes figures or graphs in the long questions.
    Sorry I cant remember it all

    Stop derailing the thread. If you have a problem with mod actions, take it to PM with the mod and NOT on thread, as detailed in the first post.

    The request was deleted, it being quoted in my post does not mean it is still on thread and does not corrupt the searches.

    Hi, any help with the music paper?

    Music DEB:

    We got the DEBS paper, I think, this is what came up for the listening (note to mods, these are definite questions that we know come up):

    Bach:
    Easy enough, on the Bass Aria (one with oboe), very doable question

    Queen:
    This was on the "Nothing really matters, anyone can see", the Outro, we found out it was called afterwards :L Bit of dictation involved, I think, but it was easy enough

    Romeo and Juliet:
    This was q.1, it was on the Love theme the second time round/Exposition. Can't remember what exactly was asked, sorry

    Barry:
    Absolutely horrible question. Know stuff about "compositional techniques", and the answer to the tick the box q. is C6 (the excerpt was the part where the violin sounds tuneless and more like a dying cat

    Irish music:
    For the 10 mark question, céilí band tradition, harping tradition and ornamentation in either singing or instruments came up. Can't remember the 4th option, sorry

    Hope this helps you a bit :)

    Most schools order their mocks from one particular company, so all their mock papers are from the one company. However I have seen on this that one school distributed papers from 2 companies, it is rare enough though.
