What strategy you followed to score high marks or world rank?
We couldn’t care less about high marks or world rank. We are only interested in helping students achieve a pass so that they can progress. General advice for all candidates is:
1 Focus carefully on the requirements.
2 Pay attention to the professional marks instruction for each question. The professional marks guidance gives important clues as to how to ‘angle’ your answer. Focus on writing professionally, eg a memorandum for your boss rather than an exam answer
3 Thoroughly read the information in the case study and use that when writing your answer.
4 Don’t describe models: apply them. Approach questions first from a common sense view then see if you can give your ideas a solid foundation by using models to support your points.
5 Allocate your time strictly. Write for the full time available. One or two point bullet points are useless: write one or two sentences for each point you want to make s that you fully explain your reasoning.
