hey guys,

if anyone please has any tips regarding business reports and how to score a 20/20 in them, please, please let me know.

ALSO i've gotten Bs in all my business reports so far and have consistently been provided with the feedback of dividing into subheadings. while I do this, i'm still confused about it slightly - is it just syllabus points we make the subheadings or are we allowed to make the main points of our argument into subheadings too?

thank you in advance, any help would be appreciated guysss!

Yeah, business reports have a pretty specific structure, best way for me to explain is an example, so ill just type up what my business report for marketing looked like (including the numbers!):
1. Executive Summary
*executive summary here* "This report was commissioned by..." "This report will..." (ect..)
2. main heading, broad topic of the next paragraphs.
2.1 Specific topic within the broader topic, write a paragraph under this.
*paragraph content*
2.2 The next specific topic with paragraph, ect...
*Paragraph*
2.3... 2.4... Ect...
3. second major topic
3.1 sub topic paragraph
*Paragraph*
3.2 subtopic two..
*Paragraph*
3.3.... 3.4.... ect...
do this as many times as needed then a conclusion.
Business paragraphs shouldn't be too long, but you should have a few, For my recent report, i did executive summary, 6 body paragraphs under 3 main headings, and a conclusion. Each paragraph was around 2/3-1 of an exam booklet page (This report was done in 55 minutes instead of the average 45 minutes, so you may do less writing per paragraph or less paragraphs). It does't necessarily have to be under syllabus point headings unless its relevant to the question or if it's something your school encourages.
