Thank you for this! Really appreciate it. I found your paper 1 video very helpful too… 👍

[harriet]

I just finished paper 2 and it went well thanks for your help on the posters five factors 🙏🏾 can’t wait for paper3🥰

[kbndz]

Life saver on the 5 factors and pestle, they also put ma as a math question which was interesting

[Hamza-ezmy]

Banger, smashed it!
What advice wud u give me, I'm struggling with time. Often I only manage to do half the question, so usually missing out on counterbalance and conclusion in the 10, 12 and 20 markers

[yarikkrasnov]

I've put down for break-even analysis disadvantages that:
- Variable costs change, break-even analysis doesn't take this into account
- Break-even assumes the business will sell all of its stock, which is unrealistic

Would this be right?

[BG-lbjn]

Thank you! your video helped a lot for the exam today.

[kbndz]

Top man I'm gonna save this vid for later

[temper]

Absolute life saver. I watched your videos before paper 1 however it didn’t go too well as I started to run out of time on the last question. I tried to do 2 peach paragraphs for each 10 and 12 marker. Wondering what you mean by a developed however, is this a whole new paragraph or just a slightly longer explanation of the however?

[Freya-uf]

if you get asked to assess the usefulness of swot analysis or porters 5 forces, what benefits or drawbacks would you give?

[dannypitcherenterprises]

what are the benefits and drawbacks of quantitative sales forecast?

[sarunoso]

Is it okay if I answer questions like this for example- a ten marker would have 3 chains of analysis for the 3 analysis marks and a 12 marker would have perhaps a couple chains of analysis in the first PEACH paragraph and 2 more in the PEAC (for the 4 analysis marks). I have watched your videos on answering questions but I always think I'm doing too many analysis chains which takes time, how many would you recommend normally, would you say I should just do more chains depending on how many marks there are?

[sophieevans]

For a SWOT analysis essay, will they specify which areas of SWOT as it may be difficult to reach proper detail if you try and cram in a point for all 4 parts.

[lylah]

What kind of question could they ask for SWOT analysis.

[ERROROVERK]

For captial employed, isn't the calculation total asset - non current liabilities? Or am I wrong?

[claudiareda]

If there where to be an essay question on sales forecasting why did they not include 2.2.1 sales forecasting in the advanced Information ?

[zico_-]

Hiya, can i just confirm, for 10 and 12 markers is it best to do 2 Points with 2 howevers

[danielwerner]

Do you know whether I will be able to abbreviate the formulas when calculating? Like you have done in the video such as Break even output = BEO

[rifathkhan]

what kind of questions do you not need to provide a counterbalance for

[declanoshaughnessy]

Any chance you could sort of do a run through 20 marker - struggled abit for timing on paper 1 and spent too long on the 20 markers

[farjadanjum]

Does anyone have a good benefit and limitation of ratio analysis that you can easily expand on?
