TCE Year 11 Business StudiesOriginal synoptic practice exam 2: Northern Larder (original practice, not an official TASC paper)
| Reading time | See the stated paper time |
| Writing time | 3 hours writing + 15 minutes preparation time (marks ≈ minutes). Original practice format modelled on the published TASC Business Studies external assessment structure (Sections A, B and C with a shared stimulus); not an official TASC examination. The TASC exam offers question choice (Section A: two of four questions on Unit 1 and two of four on Unit 2; Section B: two of three 35-mark questions, one each on Units 2, 3 and 5), but all questions here are compulsory, so the total equals the sum of question marks. The last Section C question practises Unit 6 feasibility-study thinking; TASC assesses Unit 6 internally only and does not examine it in the external exam. Use a TASC-approved calculator and the formulae on the Information Sheet; ratios to two decimal places. |
