    HI All

    In Part 2 – Information gathering and accounting/business techniques

    Should I make this section quite generic just describing the sources of information and the pros and cons. Or should I discuss the actual information I have got from the sources?

    For example lets say I have used the Harvard Business Review journal. Should I say in part 2:

    1, I have sourced information from journals. The positives about using journals is XXX. The limitations are XXX.

    Or should I say

    2, I have sourced information from the Harvard Business Review about the PEST model. Its positives are XXX and limitations are XXX

    @williams1977 Try the first suggestion as otherwise you are likely to run out of words by the time you get to the All Important Part 3. Part 3 needs as much focus and detailed explanation as possible to ensure a pass
