@ funshine99… i dont think ull lose 10 marks fr dis…as only 4 professional marks were in place for identifying relevant model(s)…..
Plus i think the examiner played a trick here….d question meant only to b analysed using PESTEL cus in PESTEL u discuss marketplace aspects also in all d relevent factors…..
had dere been required more dan two models…he would have clearly written MODELS instead of model(s)……
n wt else do u xpect from a 16 mark qustion….PESTEL analysis z way too long fr 16 marks……i used pestel and porter’s diamond. is diamond rule completely irrelevant in this case?? time was a limiting factor. lol

In Q 1 I think the examiner ideally wanted PESTEL and 5 Forces but any relevant models could score well if applied well. PESTEL on it’s own would not be ideal as it only deals with macro environmental analysis, not industry specific which was also asked for.
