Hi,
I myself study A2 Business Studies at home so I have some questions about the exam skills, anyone please help me clear these points:
I see that in the mark scheme for questions 10-15 marks there are points for Evaluation and Analysis. And I see that they occupy for the most of points in the questions.
So what's exactly the meaning of these 2 points Evaluation and Analysis.

As what I understand is:
Analysis is discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the given points in the context
Evaluation is judgement good or bad way and giving advice, for better ways/solutions related to the context.

am I rite?

Yeah you are rit o...
the tip for p3 is that, support ur point wid the case study it should not go out of it discuss everything for the case study point of view..
and yeah in EVERY question of p3 you have to give flip side as well not only support ur point but also discuss likely outcome of it...even if the que say what wil be the advantages of such strategic decision to a business....u still have to give disadvantages..

Wish you Goood Luck..
may ALLAH succeed all the candidates :)

My only hope is that they repeat many questions.....and they give us too many graphs and calculations....
