Haha, I was the exact same, but I decided I should make a definite choice, and picked global and marketing! :p

I got a mark of 95 on my trial report :( And I knew I had to work today, because the rest of my class doesn't... and I'm pretty sure I did preeetty terribly... wah :( :( I'll be lucky if I got the same raw mark as I did on my CSSA trials.

Just curious to see how much of a psychic group we all are. :) So, were you right or wrong in your predictions for the extended response?

:( I had two hours and did 8 pages each. How do you write so fast and make it legibly at the same time???

^ bahaha, that's a great way of putting it :D I'm really disappointed. I got 18/20 for trials (CSSA) and now I think I've majorly stuffed up... like, I put A for q.4 :( But I still don't think it's interpersonal. I think it's informational :)

I thought the questions were fairly good. And I thought I had big writing, until I looked at some past responses and they wrote like, 4 words a line, if they squeezed it ... I wrote 8 for each. But I'm satisfied that I covered ALL the content thoroughly. I also found, this exam block, I seem...

Oh yay, that means we won't get any questions vaguely to do with workchoices. :) Haha, '07 probably will then.

Ok, thankee :)

Yes, I'm trying to open the exemplar responses, but my computer is doing weird things and it won't open up :( Ah well, I'll just wait a bit longer. :) Ok, so in a situational analysis, what exactly do we put then? Do we need one? And is it only necessary for marketing (like SWOT), or can it...

Yes... perhaps I should stop making predictions and start studying... nah, more fun this way. + reduces the amount I feel I have to study :) :) (I'm only kidding, I'm only kidding... please don't give me "you shouldn't base your study on predictions" speeches)

Argh, after all this time, I've been doing business reports MY way, but then I go and look at the marking guidelines from the BOS, and I'm confused. :( Ok, take the 2002 business report question... Inside the stimulus box, it gives the normal business background information, and a list of...

^ mm good question, I was just wondering that. Because I'm doing Billabong, but if they ask a question which I have covered with Billabong then I'm just going to make it up... but what if that point that doesn't cover my case study, is not under the case study dot-point list ... will I lose...

From some book in the library.

I'm only doing Billabong :o

After detailed study last night (drew up a table :D ) I've come to the conclusion that the extended response will be global, and marketing or financial. But most likely marketing.

I'm hoping the extended response WON'T be on financial planning. Bet it will be on global. Change would be alright, as would marketing. I also have good case studies for ER. As long as it isn't finance!! (we'll see if Loz_metalhead is right about global)

I'm learning a little of a case study tomorrow (the day before the exam! Eek!) and I'm going to make one up in there. I did it for my trial, and pulled it off successfully. It's much easier to mold to a question and you don't have to worry about remembering stupid financial ratios. :) Plus, I...

Ahh right thanks :)

Ok, thank you! Also, the extended response is made up of two topics, yeah? So what if we only use a case study for one of the topics (e.g. the question is on employment relations and global business, and someone only does a case study on employment relations) How many marks are you likely...

Well, I'm not using those ones, but you do as many as follow those syllabus dot-points at the top of each topic. I don't know why some people are looking for case studies that cover EVERY SINGLE DOT-POINT. I have a question also - can we use more than one case study in the extended response...
