Hi Ken
Would you say it is important to read ALL the questions before going into reading / highlighting the scenario and answering the questions.
What I have found is that I would only read the first question, read scenario and then answer. I would then discover that I had answered the second question’s points due to cross over points that could be made. (Swifts attractiveness for acquisition can also be part of the porters diamond as well!)
I take it that if you mention something in part (a) you would not get additional marks for the same point in (b).
Many thanks
You should read all the requirements of a question before starting to produce any answer. Otherwise, as you identify, you might make points in the wrong part of your answer.
A kind marker might carry out a reassignment of marks, but the electronic system used by markers when marking scaned scripts can make this difficult.
