    Could you please help me understand what i should do to pass my RR and SLS!

    Technical and Professional Skills
    1. Understanding of accountancy/business models Pass

    2. Application of accountancy/business models Pass

    3. Evaluation of information, analysis and conclusions Fail

    Reasons for fail and advice for improvement:
    Even though you have put good effort in the project, there is still work to be done to achieve the pass standard in the following areas: Your profitability ratios are good enough to pass but other accounting ratios were often just largely descriptive, rather than analytical., by this I mean that you often described the changes without too much analysis to explain the changes. What is expected from the RAP for analysis is an exploration of the business decisions and strategies that have led to the change in ratios over the period under review and how these have been affected by competitors, the market, the economy and government policies. You need to focus on ratios that are specific to banking i.e. CAMELS.

    4. Presentation of project findings Pass

    Overall Technical and Professional Skills Fail

    Graduate Skills
    5. Communication Pass

    6. Information gathering and Referencing Fail

    Reasons for fail and advice for improvement:
    You have made a good start but you are let down somewhat by the tendency to patch together materials from other sources – when resubmitting make sure that you write the project in your own words rather than relying on cutting and pasting text from the internet: whilst I have interpreted this as very poor referencing in the current submission please be mindful that it could be likened to plagiarism which is a serious academic conduct issue. You must also make sure that the most up to date financial statements are used when resubmitting your work. You will need to undertake more information research in order to be in a position to undertake more in-depth analysis of the company. You need to expand your information sources and make sure that you reference these sources.

    7. Information Technology Pass

    Overall Graduate Skills Fail

    Overall
    Research Report Assessment F

    Skills & Learning Statement
    Graduate Skills

    8. Self Reflection Fail

    Reasons for fail and advice for improvement:
    Q3 is particularly weak on self-reflection: consider all the types of communication used- verbal, written, non-verbal and the different media, interpersonal opportunities and any setbacks.

    9. Communication Skills (inc Presentation) Fail

    Reasons for fail and advice for improvement:
    I really need to see more information in the presentation that clearly illustrates the key issues that you are going to address in the RAP. The presentation should provide the audience with an understanding of the outcomes and key findings of the investigation, it is not sufficient to merely present the graphs and charts with no commentary. On the slides for the SWOT you have too much information for the audience to digest effectively. You need to find a balance with graphs and bullet points to convey the main points and then you can expand on this verbally when you deliver the presentation.

    Skills and Learning Statement assessment Fail

    Would appreciate your help on this. I’m planning on resubmitting for the May 2015 session.

    Hello,

    I failed my project and one of the reasons given was the ratios and business models used.

    Please I will like to know financial ratios and business models that are good for analysing BANKs.

    Thank you.
