I thought that this exam would really give me some respite from all the beatings I've endured from my other exams....turns out this was just the same

Will you be marked down if you didnt fill all the lines?

No lol one of the 6 mark questions had an extra 1/2 page (was the one about structures) and the other 6 mark questions had much less space

The lines are only there as a guide if you need all of them. As long as you answer all parts of the question adequately, then you should be fine. Personally, I only used 75% of the lines for the Q where you had to talk about the elements of the operations system.

Yeah friken Structures q was wayyyy too long. This is the one i didnt fill all the lines left like half of the half page. I had left it to do at the very end just managed to finish. probz left something out lost marks there.

i just though organic made sense, because you could talk about outsourcing and expanding rapidly

Yep, i thought it was good. Made better sense than functiona/divisional/matrix. As long as you explained them well etc. you should get full marks

[careyboy]

my mate did hierarchial and flatter structures instead of geographic. i think hes wrong but he argued against me quite well leading me to believe he might be right. any thoughts?

[_avO]

I was tossing up between doing either those specific structures or the more general top-down / flat structure discussion so i went with the latter.. at the time it felt 'right' since there was more you could differentiate between the two

[jayna]

=/ i used more specific structures.... I think if you justify it well enough, you should be right

[sajib_mostofa]

A lot of the questions just werent specific enough

[_avO]

maybe.. overall bad exam is bad people could have done perfectly fine last year without learning the new study design
