Re: Not hard?

what would be classed as an opportunity? I went (d) appreciation of Australian dollar.
Same.

Guys what did you say for the financial influences on global businesses.

I said currency fluctuations and interest range changes (Higher AUD means cheaper to expand globally and invest overseas) , (Higher I/R mean it cost more to borrow for investment and expansion and i said higher i/r leads to more savings).

Re: Not hard?

Multiple choice- probably 18 or 19 / 20. Short answer- probably 35/40. 26- probably 13/20. I didn't know what communication systems were. 27- probably 14/20 wrote about apple. It was poortly structured, and i forgot a few of the syllabus points relating to that question. I honestly don't know how people write so much in the extended responses in business. Mine were 3 and a quarter for 26 and 4 and a quarter for 27.

Re: Not hard?

but im not sure if this was sufficient or what they were looking for it. i think it was too 'economics' oriented. Im not sure but yeah i hope those markers are kind.

How did you find q 27 or 28?

I did question 27. Didn't think it was that difficult, luckily i studied exactly what the question was last night. The case study part though, I completely made up, including fake percentages and revenue figures. Hopefully they won't notice.

Re: Not hard?

What was the answer to Question 18, everyone thought it was Common Law, but from doing Eco I thought it was the FWA?

Thoughts: Nice Short Answer section, a few tricky MC, report was good, Case study was... a bit disappointed there wasn't a large section on Marketing anywhere in the test.
Wrote 12 pages for each ext. response :/
