As many as you need to get the content stuck in your head Fizzy! And then maybe a few more ;) I did over 20 for some of my subjects, and less than 5 for another one of them, so it totally depends :) I think 5 would be a good starting point! 5 Past Papers, plus study of the concepts along the way, would be a good baseline to try and meet (and then exceed) ;D again though, totally depends on the person ;D

Hello! I was wondering for a business essay are we allowed to use subheadings or is that considered unsophisticated?
Also I wanted to ask whats the main difference between a business report and essay? Is it just the fact that you cant write case studies in a business report? or a recommendations in an essay?

Hey Emerald! Unfortunately I can't comment on Business specifically, but subheadings wouldn't normally be considered appropriate for an essay (unless there is an exception for Business?) :)

From my perspective you can write section IV in one of two ways, a business report format or an essay.
I have seen a number of band 6 responses for both of these methods. The report format consists of headings and subheadings (much like section III of the exam), however, if you choose to write an essay i would advise against subheadings. It would be better to choose the Business report format if you do not feel comfortable writing a cohesive and logical essay which can flow nicely.
