Personally I found it very good. A little bit of everything in it.

The last essay was like WTF but then I understood it.

Re: Thoughts on the Business Trial 08

i thought it was pretty good paper overall not too difficult questions...we havnt finished last topic yet so the last question got replaced and was pretty straight forward...hoping for 80% aswell

Re: Thoughts on the Business Trial 08

One of the worst possible Exam wrriten in the history of CSSA ...

i found it extreamy stupid ... almost every question was based on Emploment Relations ... there was no balance ...

 

[Zippora]

i liked the financial section.. yea we havent finished global so our teacher changed the global part of question seven to like analysing how the marketing plan impacts on the success of the business which was vague in pointless but yeaa

 

[uebel]

i actually found it really good.

couple of multiple choice questions got me, but i basically breezed through the short answer.

crapped on for the last essays

Blargh...I hate it when you get questions on topics you didn't revise as much for compared to the others. I really neglected Finance but I somehow got away with it by just remembering the ratios and certain strategies.

A lot of us walked out of the exam like 'lol I bs'ed'. Especially with the last question.

We had anything on Management and Change replaced. There was stuff on management roles that we'd covered already so that remained in the paper.

Overall...I have no idea how I did. A bit fine, a bit crap.

I got distribution channels confused with market coverage. Oh well.

 

[Zippora]

is market coverage like intensive, selective, exclusive?
haha yea i sat for abuot 10 minutes trying to remember which one was distribution channels.. but i ended out right luckily

 

[Zippora]

did you get like 159%???
haha i totally forgot about that but yea that phased me when i was in there

 

[DaveYoung]

Short answers is where I fell down a bit but should still get 25-30 for that section. Multiple choice was fairly easy and I wrote 4 pages for Section 3 and 5 pages for Section 4, so I'm pretty happy with that.

Looking to get in the 70%'s and I reckon I'll make that.

 

[VicerExciser]

I failed

for distribution channels i talked about Import/Export by Sea.

lol

[FINNY69]

I'm terrible at this subject...I'll be lucky to pass.Mind you,I have a useless teacher who may as well give us a football and let us kick it around his lessons are that unrelated to business studies.

Although,my school didnt do the CSSA one,so it'd be different to all you guys....at least,I don't think we did.

 

[shais]

pissed becuase .. we didnt cover financial topic .. so our teacher swictched all the financial quuestoon with employment relation .. omggg ...

soo friken stupid ... and i found essay the easiest

 

[Zippora]

the answer was the three distribution channels

producer - consumer

producer - retailer - consumer

producer - wholesaler - retailer - consumer
