How did you find this section? Which question did you answer and was it what you were expecting?
What format did you use to respond to the question (eg: report, essay)?

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

fucked me over sooooo bad.

the question itself wasnt as bad as i thought (like at least i knew each part of the question well, because i had a feeling marketing would be in it)

but i didnt know how to WRITE it, and link it all together, and i had jack shit case material on it (i think i gave like 4 snippits of case material, pitiful)

plus i started to run out of time so i rushed the end bit

but yeah. FAIL.

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

The BOS will moderate the marks. My teacher is an experience marker. She said not to shit yourself, these marks will most probably be increase by a few marks because financial is usually a subject in which students struggle with. Especially in extended response. I wish I did 28 instead of 27.

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

^

i did #27 and had no idea how to link it all together

i ended up randomly linking market strategies (distribution channel, promotion and pricing strategies) with the customer and then saying that expenses should be cut and financial goals set. I don't know the financial planning cycle >.<

what the hell is 'the customer' anyway

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

Extended was all over the place, i thought it was a pretty abstract combination of topics to discuss, and a ripper to try and format it!

How many pages did we all write?

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

I thought the extended response was quite fair, well question 28 was, kinda similar to the CSSA trial. I think I would've been screwed if I attempted q.27, but luckily I didn't.

EDIT: Also, I wrote 14 pages for my response.

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

about 6 i think, cant remember

omg. seriously at the end of it, i just pretty much did a paragraph on each financial objective's characteristics and wrote "having an effective marketing plan will result in higher profits, resulting in this objective being achieved" after EACH ONE.

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

i did 28 and i dont think it was tooo bad
i did it like a business report my headings were

exec sum . . .
Market reasearch: i just did a definition

Process of market research :
1. identify informational needs
2. Research
-primary
-secondary
3. Implementation and analysis

Effects on marketing plan
how it affects
- situational analysis
- marketing objectives
- target market and strats

and then i just bullshitted about financial for a few pages and how it made it easy to predict trends and prepare for future financial stituations which will assist in acheiving financial objectives

. . . and the CS stuff i used seemed a little out of placed but i chucked some in in random places anyways

i did 6 pages . . . i wasn't unhappy with it but i wasnt happy . . . it seemed a little disjointed though, but i think thats just the question. im hoping to get at least 14

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

Did 28, was in a hurry trying 2 finish
Did 10 pages.

How did you guys go in q26

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

mine was about 6 pages for q 27, thought it was alright, but looking back it was a clusterfuck. i didn't link SHIT, just a bunch of random (made up on the spot of course) statistics, a VERY dodgy table and some suspect percentages about the local cinema where i work. hopefully its some senile old person marking it who cuts me some slack lol

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

sounds to me like theres a bit of a consensus here. i reckon we'll all get scaled up. This was harder than heaps of the past papers ive done

anyone positively shitting themselves just before reading time?

Re: Business Studies Section IV: Extended Response

I had about 3 pages left in the booklet. I found the extended responses sooo hard. I'm crushed because i did really well in business during year 12 and i stuffed up right when it counts the most..
