Average
September 2, 2025 at 6:44 pm #719768It was okay but I couldn’t manage my time. ?
September 2, 2025 at 7:21 pm #719771I was stretched on time too.
There was an overlap between data analytics and cloud based service. Did anyone make same points for both?
What did people say for KPIs and financial data question? Wasn’t much to go off for a 16 marker.
September 2, 2025 at 7:47 pm #719775Didn’t use any models.
September 2, 2025 at 9:20 pm #719779We were to critically appraise the results of the financial data and kpis? There was a lot to talk about if u did variances and further analysis
September 2, 2025 at 10:11 pm #719781Yeah financial data and KPIs gave loads of potential for analysis looking at the variances, feeding nicely into the cost control point.
Rest of the exam was fine.
September 2, 2025 at 10:22 pm #719782Did anyone use porters 5 forces?
September 2, 2025 at 10:58 pm #719783mine was question one on a partnership with a supermarket and then an assesment of stakeholders.
task 2 was on AI and data analytics and task 3 was on internal controls and risk management.
September 2, 2025 at 11:06 pm #719784I thought it was okay. Struggled on time tho. So surprising how 3 hrs 15 mins flies in there. My answers definitely could have had more depth and a bit more broad though. I did also struggle to talk much about the financial and KPIs. There wasn’t much to go off to suggest what resulted in the 20×5 figures to make an analysis imo. All I could see was that there was growth in revenue but below budget and revenue growth did fall again (instead of increasing which is what Menu craft expected based on the revenue budget figure). Costs went up YoY which is expected since revenue increased. Yet it was below budget which shows potential cost control and good management of resources etc. All the various KPI’s were also a positive and showed growth YoY. But wasn’t sure what else to go off. Did anyone include anything different?
September 2, 2025 at 11:16 pm #719785Do different countries get different exam questions? I feel like it might also be based on time? Everyone that sits the exam at the same time gets the same questions but when satat a different time, get another set of questions?
