    well i picked it up in november of 6th year,did it previously at JC and got a b2 in it

    i found the course was the easiest of any of the subjects that i did and did the least study for that exam than anything else


    so basically if you put in the time then yes its very do-able

    I've the opposite story. Picked it up last year, thought it was the easiest subject ever and was sure I'd gotten an A turned out to be a C3.

    It is definitely do-able!
    You only have to learn the sections you like best as you can avoid questions on sections you don't like in the exam!
    by far the easiest subject for lc, imo!

    It was the easiest but people shouldn't be fooled into thinking it's so easy that they can't go wrong. The subject and the exam paper are two different things. I believe some people have the same impression of business as a lot of people used to have of Home Ec that it would be an easy A. It's not.

    My opinion is that is is the most do-able subject!

    It's just a matter of understanding a definition and then working on advantages, disadvantages etc. Its just all common sense i promise.
