    I did the same thing again…hahaha…but I thought about it carefully after the exam, I believe the examiner intended to address balanced scorecard in (c)…it makes more sense as it’s very hard to apply building blocks to the case….but there is nothing wrong if you used building blocks, you can still get marks if you applied it to the case well…

    The examiner could have just specified which model to use in (c), that would have made requirements clear… this is absolutely his problem…

    For Q4, I feel it’s the easiest question in the whole paper….the company has only compared with unis of similiar size.. it may consider using other benchmarking such as industry, internal, best-in-class etc…

    I did some calculations in Q4(b) and explained each, hoping to gain 3-4 marks…

    I did fairly poor in Q1…T_T

    How to apply balance scorecard in that scenario.. it didn’t had anything on internal processes or innovation :S
    I said its a service industry, so Building block would be best for the company.

    What Alex Watt wants from the students?

    Hoping for a pass 🙂

    Same here, I am also dis hearted with Q1

    What you guys did in the following question:

    Q4(a) Assess the progress of the benchmarking exercise to date, explaining the actions that have been undertaken and those that are still required.

    Hello,

    Can anyone please explain me question 1(a)
    Critically assess the existing performance report
    What i did, i assessed the performance of the Metis.

    Then The question continuation was: suggest improvements to its content and presentation;
    Here, I provided few improvements (not many)

    Please clear me, I did anything wrong 🙁

    Worried

    I am also IN for the petition against Mr. Watt.
