    Hey there,

    I want to know to what extent six sigma is examined in p5 paper, any numerical calculations and history details explaining the deviations concept and all that should be done or not?

    No numerical calculations. Just know DMAIC and the concept of gradual improvement.

    Gradual improvement means make and improvement, see how that does, then make another etc. so that bit by bit you achieve very significant improvement.

    Yes the format is now 1 50 mark question for Part A then 2 from 3 at 25 marks each. If not changed yet, our P5 material will soon be changed to reflect that.
