As we knw p2 is based on case studies and to get highest marks possible u need to read the case study carefully and underline every important point in the case study. Like a case study wud say a business is plc underline it or like business sells goods to industries or final consumers underline them. I assure when u relate ur answers to the case study with good to the point answers u will get good marks.

idk i guess topics which have not been covered in paper 1 might come in paper 2
dont rely on it, m just giving a guess
in p1 they gave questions on operations, HR and essay question was also on HR (i dun remember the other two essay questions)
so i guess it could be finance, marketing for the case study long questions
and maybe location decsions

Well , you cant rely on unit 5, it is true that the most questions comes from unit 5 , atleast one case study , but what i noticed that in Paper 2 it includes all the book but the focus in on UNIT 3 ( MARKETING ) AND UNIT 5 (BUSINESS FINANCE , COST , CASH FLOWS AND ACCOUNTING FUNDAMENTALS ) dont rely on this im just saying my point of view.

they like to ask marketing a lot in the last questions

yea v must be prepared with the answer structures as well
mark scheme would be helpful in this case
