Hi,
Can we copy/paste points from exhibit for answer planning in the answer sheet and then write complete answers?
And to what extend we can copy/paste ?
May 22, 2021 at 1:13 pm #621433You get no marks for copy and paste and the danger is that your answer does not ‘move forward’ enough. For example, you might be told that the company makes luxury goods. You might also be told that the economy is heading towards recession.
These two pieces of information need to be brought together to be of use: they are of limited importance separately. You would.d need to end up saying something like:
“The forecast recession is likely to have a severe effect on the revenue and profitability of sellers of (discretionary) luxury goods.”
I’m not sure copy and paste is the best way of getting to an answer like that.
May 22, 2021 at 2:45 pm #621451Then how can we reference a point to a requiremnet duing reading time?. Because in CBE we can only highlight text in exhibit.
May 22, 2021 at 5:11 pm #621463I think you have a scratch pad.
You will have to experiment to see what works for you. Ask other students in the general forum what they do.
