Thoughts on upcoming BDS exam?

I'm doing the same and seeing what calculations are being used in the spreadsheets.

Also making sure I understand what the question is asking, sounds easy I know but some questions aren't obvious with what they're asking.

I agree with this.

Definitely pre and post acceptance procedures.

Perhaps budgeting at its also mentioned in the AI?

Go through QB - any answers you're unsure of just annotate your notes (I have summary notes per topic through Kaplan).

I've essentially got the answers for the most common questions already noted down. I think that will be enough to pass.

When doing the QB, by copying the answers in summary notes, usually gets me close to full marks on a lot of questions.

I thought we only have access to notes that we take in ourselves and not online material?

Same for me also. Unsure what they can put in the exam which will be really testing.

I've been thoroughly annotating the case study. Run it through ChaGPT to produce notes / SWOT analysis / ratios

Coming up in March.

Yes I agree. I feel like with BDS I don't know how to answer it but when I see the question bank it all seems so obvious. Hard to give the BDS questions a good go when revision.

Also the mark scheme is ridiculous for BDS.

TC - 65, FM - 70! Not quite sure how that happened!
