HAHAHAHAHA- SHUDDUP!

When you write a business report, it has to be to someone, from someone with a title page and date and name (a non gender specific one like.. J. Smith) My teach marks the exams and they award marks to using..'REPORT FORMAT'
4pgs isnt that much... i can do 6 easy...theres so much to business studies how can you not right more than 4??

so dont laugh at me cause your schools crap!

In my trials I spent

20 minutes on multichoice
90 on SEC II
40 on SEC III
30 on SEC IV

I found 40 way too short for III and also 30 too short for IV

Somehow I need to speed up on SEC II

yeah, its pretty hard to write 4 pages of good stuff.. u know what they say, quality not quantity.. but i dont think teachers actually believe that when they're marking.. *shrugs*

we've always got restrictions in our assessments; the maximum is about 2000 words which is not much at all and it's a real pain trying to cut words down.. grr :mad:

Our business reports have been limited to 1500 words - really really impossible.

Plus they had a strict policy and a few people lost lots of marks for going over.
