    Have people learned the updated acts?

    Like The Data Protection (Amendment) Act 2003, Unfair Dismissals Act 2007, Consumer Protection Act 2007 etc.

    Guys - why would you give tips to someone who hasn't bothered studying? Let them sink, they deserve it. And yes, I'm a teacher!

    Id say you're a right c*nt of a teacher! I thought teachers are supposed to be encouraging and help students?

    hey the taxation calculation that can be asked just

    like your given wages and say it says get the first 26,000 at 20% and the next 14,000 at 41% and then you get the two taxes and minus the tax credit and then just tax the final tax from the whole wage?

  • Registered Users Posts: 220 ✭✭smithy77


    I only studied EU from unit 7 just incase something comes up on it in the short questions:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 113 ✭✭Kelix


    Where can I study the updated acts online? their not in my book and I did business without a teacher this year


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,323 ✭✭✭Cruel Sun


    Okay guys, little help. How much do you intend on writing for each long question. Say 4 points, a 20 marker. Would 2 sentences be enough and an example if possible.

    What's the difference between Illustrate, Discuss and state? Thanks.

    illustrate means explain giving an example
    discuss means show the positive and negative
    state is just state really :L

    Good luck to everyone in the business exam tomorrow!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,545 ✭✭✭Geo10


    Panicking now. Didn't do unit 7 and barely know any of 6. The SQs better be based on the first five units!... at least 8 of them!! :eek::confused:
    I'm going to have to waffle for the part of ABQ based on u6 and I should be ok for LQs with first five units!!

    Well your an idiot of a teacher then. I'm sure ALL of your students have been studying for months now. Seriously, if someone can try to do a bit better, even at the last minute, then let them.

    There were 7As in my class last year, and 4 the previous year- I've a list as long as my arm of students who fight to get into my class. Good luck to all those who have put the effort in

    Far from a c**t of a teacher. As I said in an earlier post - results prove that I encourage my hard-working students, not many teachers have 7As in their Business class most years. There are two in this year's group who did nothing...so, I won't be wishing them luck, only the students who have worked their socks off and learned all their notes.

    c'mon business plan!


  • Registered Users Posts: 113 ✭✭Kelix


    It's impossible to give A1 answers and complete the paper in 3 hours. The timing got me. Should get a B but I wanted an A1 and knew all the questions and deserved it, but the crappy timing rules come into play again. They should do one exam a day and give us all the time between 9:30 to 5 to get it done rather than trying to save money by doing 2 exams a day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,576 ✭✭✭Coeurdepirate


    Lovely paper! Kept loling throughout the exam at the ABQ, RIMjob Ltd.!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 244 ✭✭leavingcert.


    Thought that paper was horrible! All the nitty gritty stuff came up in the questions i planned on doing :/ ..the ABQ and short questions weren't bad though!


  • Registered Users Posts: 89 ✭✭waiting4
