HSC Business Studies exam-day checklist
Prepare for the case-study report and the extended response as separate tasks, and verify the exam instructions.

What should you check before the exam?
NESA lists an approved calculator for Business Studies. Review the paper structure and where each response belongs. Rehearse the change from short answers to the business report and then to the extended response.
How can you approach the paper?
In the report, organise recommendations around the supplied business and its objectives. Explain how each recommendation addresses a detail from the scenario. For the extended-response choice, select the question for which you can provide the most relevant evidence and reasoning.
What should you check before you finish?
Look for a recommendation that could apply to any business and tie it to a specific condition in the case. Check that your extended response addresses its command word and that you attempted the required number of questions.
