Weve been taught to always relates stuff to our case studies, the big one being qantas.

Just flick through them so you get the idea, then you'll be able to recall them when your doing the exam :)

With the business report, just remember to do the executive summary, the body and then the conclusion (which is the same as the executive summary, just dont make it a mirror image though, and reinforce what you have wrote). Its pretty easy when you consider it lets you use bullet points lol

Had mine today....

We had two extended responses, and one of them explicitly said to refer to case studies. So Qantas got a few mentions haha

try the memory technique! i remembered it just b4 the exam and it saved my butt in the extended response hehe

if you have trouble remembering, hand write out your notes! or get someone to test you..

um..other advice i can give? well i heard that you remember stuff more easily when you TEACH that stuff to other ppl..so if you can grab someone for a few hours n just teach them business studies..ahhaa maybe that'd help
