Now, what case studies do we have to know? What do you think they will ask by looking at the past papers? lol. How many of them will they ask for the test? thank you very much.

They can ask anything. Know at least one case really well, know all aspects of it, meaning know all topics for it, and have one back up case as well, because it's always good to discuss more than one. Globalisation most of time is about a business. Business reports are based on stimulus, and the extended responses are usually case studies.

When you say learn ONE case study really well, you mean for just globilisation etc, or do i have to know a case study for each of them, marketing, globisation etc etc.

There are 4 sections right. First multiple, second short answer, third is a business plan and fourth is extended response. So, where will we have to use these case studies? IN the fourth section, we will have to discuss one? right? and in the third section? Will we have to refer to afew case studies there?

The Case Study..which as ~SeXcSuM~ said is only needed for section IV...section III is stimulus material...the case study/ies that you use in Section IV can be made up or a real business and as long as u cover all aspects of the question referring 2 it thats fine...

Also the 3rd section isnt really a business plan. Its a report.

Ive been readying the sylabbus and i realised something that i kept overlooking. Before it actually says what the content is, it states what the case study focus's on for each section. I figure a slyabbus cant say something is the focus if it isnt, it can only question you on another focus theyve given you. If that logic is true, we only need to apply our case study to the parts it says....which on topics like change and financial cuts out ALOT of other content from needing a case study to go with it..... was this obvious to you, or am i mistaken in my readying??? also if what im saying is right, i reckon globablisation will remain there, because it has the most focus's for the case study of all the topics.

I'm going to take a risk and learn the globilisation and the changes in business case studies only. Anyone else taking any risks or yous going to learn them all?
