How do you structure a business long marker question?

As a history student, I was rarely intimidated by the thought of a big marker business question unlike the rest of my peers. However, as time progressed throughout my Alevel study I realised just how easy it was to lose marks. The biggest thing I have learned throughout this process was that critical thinking using the format PEE (point, evidence and explanation) worked wonders. Within the business studies Alevel almost everything links back with to reduce average cost, and therefore increase Potiential revenue and therefore profit. Linking back every point with why it will benefit the company was key to by success. I even gained 100% in my unit 1 paper!As a Dyslexic student I can understand how daunting long essays can be especially with all the marks lost on spelling, punctuation and grammar but by using this format I was able to do really well and this is something I hope to be able to teach to other GCSE and A level students.
