    Passed from 4th attempt with 54, I am happy. Exam questions on that session were adequate, comparing to previous exams.
    Congratulations to all who passed!

    “no frills” better suit to a cost leadership strategy, but not to Focus strategy. Focus strategy is targeted to particular customer or particular niche market.

    Part b of Q1 could be in section B (option), but not in the Q1! I didn’t find that type of question in an exam kit and past exams.

    Q1 part 1 I used PESTEL, Porter 5 forces and SWOT. I am not sure that Suitability, Acceptability and Feasibility for part 2 was OK.
