Success at AQA Unit 4

Phil Waterhouse offers advice on how to tackle the AQA Unit 4 exam effectively

Preparation for the AQA Unit 4 exam involves a new set of challenges for students. The pre-release research tasks allow you to undertake detailed research into the chosen area — this summer, the recent recession in the UK — and to build and develop the skills that you will need for future academic studies. Given that candidates have 4 months in which to research, examiners are looking for the ‘wow’ factor and evidence of students taking both an interest in, and an analytical view of, businesses operating in the world around them. Making use of the articles that appear in BUSINESS REVIEW is an excellent way to do this, and no doubt your teacher will also be encouraging you to make wider use of newspaper and internet articles to build up a bank of knowledge and resources.

In the Unit 4 exam for AQA (BUSS4: The Business Environment and Managing Change), you are required to write two essays in 1 hour and 45 minutes. The exam counts for 50% of the A2 course and 25% of the total A-level.
