Any predictions as to what type of Club Account is coming up?

Oozamine

I heard the one with the balance sheet but im not 100% sure

IloveConverse

If you're good at the accounts, do them!

Can't understand why people won't learn them off, and focus on them as guaranteed questions?

Half of paper two, in the bag.

My daughter juts texted that is was easy ... She was delighted with it

Long questions were so easy. I mean did anyone else notice that they practically copied word for word the 2008 paper 1 Q3 National Budget question??
I did Q1,2,3 and 4 and I think I got most of them right.

Short q's weren't that bad but they through in a few tricky ones.
All in all it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be... :D:D:):)

Hannah_2012

It was easy enough! I did questions 1,4,5 & 6.

DaleHyland

I have a felling that they'll make a very tough marking scheme. 1089 for the budget,anyone?

I agree, the long questions were simple for the most part, while the short questions were kind of in the middle for me.

Now for paper 2...

You added on the car costs for July didn't you? I think it starts in August.

Hannah_2012
