    Sir I came across a section B question in MA that asked this

    (b) A balance scorecard measures performance from four perspectives: customer satisfaction, growth, financial sucess and process efficiency

    Required:
    Briefly explain any ONE of the four perspectives above

    Sir, so far I have heard that in MA that we don’t need to type out long answers but that question seems to contradict this statement
    Is it because these types of questions are removed from the syllabus??

    This question was from your MA Revision lecture specimen paper( from June 2014)

    In other words would the exam give questions like these to briefly type or is it ‘pick the answer in a box’ type of questions???

    You cannot these days be asked to type out a written answer.

    However not all of the questions involve just picking an answer – some questions require you to type in a number (but not to type out words).

    Make sure you work through the specimen CBE exam on the ACCA website so as to see all the different ways that questions can be asked.
