First AEA students this year

Good luck to Reema Khosla, Leon Beressi and Keane Yarish as they enter their final preparations for the BSP's first sitting of OCR's AEA Business paper. These students have all been producing excellent work on the A Level course and have been selected for this extension paper, which aims to stretch students above and beyond the syllabus taken by the rest of their cohort. The exam is three hours long and the students have to study an in-depth report on a real business (in previous years this has included Shell and GlaxoSmithKline) and answer two questions relating to elements within the report. The nature of the questions forces the students to think on a strategic basis, considering issues that affect the whole corporation and not just one of its functional areas.

Keep your fingers crossed on the 25th June!
