Abu Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 If you're talking about B&M, it's pretty much all common sense as long as you understand the main foundations. For the exams, make sure you know all the terminologies, and know how to incorporate them into the answers. They expect a lot of writing from you as well, so make sure you give them that. You need to make sure that you can come up with answers and reasons on the spot. The questions this year asked for a lot, but the syllabus is changing so I'm not sure what it'll be like next year. The ability to bull **** is imperative so that you come off as someone who knows what you're talking about. Go through your book, and learn all the key points. Don't waste your time making notes. Also make sure you have a copy of the syllabus at hand so that you can make sure that you know every single detail, and nothing unexpected comes up in the exam.

hamani Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 What I usually do for the business exam review is go through possible questions by just looking over my notes. Once I do this, I write up model answers and check them over with the teacher. This really helped me a lot during my junior year business mock exam. Additionally, if you are using the light blue book for the business course, its case studies really help. you can also use this site [url="http://www.bized.co.uk/learn/ib.htm"]http://www.bized.co.uk/learn/ib.htm[/url] it has learning materials that helped me as well Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rentle Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Business a kind of a natural instinct. First of all, learn the fundamentals and after that all the knowledge should flow in eventually. p.s. Always keep an open ear in your lessons . ;] Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indita Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 I think the best way to learn business (since the materials are a lot!) is to make revisions or summary papers. I usually do this before any term tests or semester tests (because I'm too lazy to do this on regular basis), and they really work! U should ask for the business syllabus paper from your teacher, and make your summaries from that guideline. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquarius Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Knowing your key terms should help you a lot in the long run! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
talktome Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 I think first of all, its best to denote the key terms to layman terms so you get a better grasp of the concept.. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loser123726 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 if you paid alot of attention during classes, you can try reading through markschemes whenever you see operations questions associated with graphs and maths, stop and do them you will benefit from this way very much within a day i tried this way for my mock, i rocked in paper 2 Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
