Students must know How to write in Business Studies Paper properly. They should follow some basic guidelines for attempting Paper in Business Studies.
Basic guidelines for attempting Paper in Business Studies:
1. During the first fifteen minutes given specially for this purpose, Read the question paper thoroughly, to understand what is required to be written. You can also plan the strategy of answering the questions.
2. Read the instructions properly, regarding the parts, word limit for the answers etc.
3. Try to attempt the questions in serial order. Space can be reserved for the answers to be written later on.
4. Word limit for the answers to different questions must be adhered to. Rather than counting the words in the answer make a rough estimate of your words in a line and then count the number of lines to be used.
For questions carrying 1 mark: Write answer in one word or one sentence.
                        3 marks: three points, with their explanation in brief.
                        4 marks: four points along with their brief explanation.
                        5 marks: five points, with their explanation in brief and
                        6 marks: Write six points, with their explanation in brief.
Explanation of each point should be 2 - 3 sentences, depending on individual expression of the students.
But if the number of points to be given are specifically mentioned in the question, there is no need of giving extra points in your answer.
5. Answers must be precise and to the point. Write what is relevant to the question. Don't try to impress the examiner by writing the material not asked in the question directly or indirectly.
6. In case of long answers, you must underline the main headings with dark blue ink. Colour ink other than blue is strictly prohibited in the examination.
7. Answer to questions involving difference must be written in columns.
8. Questions involving process must be answered in steps in serial order. If that sequence is broken you should not expect marks for the answer. Must give a diagram clearly labelled, showing the process.
9. In case of internal choice in the questions, try to attempt direct questions, to get maximum marks.
10. While starting to write the answer to the question, once again read the question thoroughly to decide the answer required by the examiner.
11. Answers must be written as per the marks allotted and the budgeted time.
12. You can use small cartoons, mindmaps and diagrams to support your answers.
13. While answering the questions involving case studies, try to read the question properly.
14. All answers requiring points, must be started with an introductory sentence.
15. Above all, you must make it sure to follow the Golden Principle "Make the examiner happy by writing what he wants, he will make you happy by giving the marks that you want".
