I loved it! Wrote 18 pages which is the most I've written this entire HSC period. Hopefully that'll make up for the three multiple choices I fucked up.. :(

yeh mate dont worry thats right. the question didnt ask for 'global marketing strategies'. Of course u could of just used the four p's if you linked it back to how the company can differentiate their product in Japan. Global marketing strategies involve standardisation/differentiation.....so it was more better to do the 4p's

I talked about the use of key financial indicators in developing a strategic plan for the business. All in all I think this was my best section, I did 12 pages and liked what I wrote. :D

This section was alright, didn't discuss any other strategies apart from the 3 they gave us and TOLD us to write about. Thus basically i just discussed the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy the firm was going to do and evaluated that with regard to its two objectives. Was alrite, wrote about 14 and a bit pages.

FOr the role of financial management... i wrote about the key indicators and said that financial management is about setting objectives and finding the resources needed to achieve those objectives.

true i used stuff liek this in it + a lot of other concepts in the question...

apparently at marking they just give like random high marks all over the place like a ok response gets 15/20 :cool:

i thought q26 was really really crapo n to specific but i spose thats how they destinquish between the good n the excellent students, I only wrote about what they told me to, evaluating each of the three things, the next extended response i thought was much better maybe because i new what exactly i was doing but i dont think i did enough in this question on teh causes of industrial conflict, i mainly just discussed how to resolve it and the use of rewards and training and development. What did everyone else do 4 this q?
