Title: Do you need to do Units 1 and 2 BM in order to understand Units 3 and 4?
Post by: oliverk94 on January 25, 2012, 02:17:51 am
Hey guys,

I changed my subject from Biology to Business Management at the end of the year and I got into Business Management, i was just wondering if I will find Units 3 and 4 difficult since I didn't do Units 1 and 2.. because some people have told me that you don't need to do Units 1 and 2 in order to understand the material..


- thanks

The stuff that you'll need from Units 1&2 is covered pretty well in 3&4. You should be able to manage just fine without Units 1&2, but I'm not 100% sure since I did Units 1&2.

No need to do Unit 1 & 2 to understand 3 & 4. I got 46 in BM without 1 & 2.

I got 46 without 1/2 as well. Didn't even know there was a 1/2 of BM until you mentioned actually (school only offered 3/4) , so you have nothing to worry about.

There is one Cambridge BM and CPAP studyguide for BM? Business management is actually very easy as most of my friends got 40 above without putting really much effort.

Brilliant, that's a great role model for me right there :)


I'll probably think about buying a study guide, but should I buy it now.. or maybe a few months before the exam just to give me that extra boost?

Maybe you should buy a study guide now. Prepare early is better.
