How to approach Business Studies 319

Business Studies 319 is a theory subject with clear, definition-led answers. The 14 exam lessons cover management, finance, marketing and trade. The TMA lessons include the introductory chapters and the employment-related ones near the end. It pairs naturally with Accountancy 320 and Economics 318.

Combining Business Studies 319 with other subjects

It is in Group B, so it combines freely with other Group B subjects. Groups C, D, E and F allow one subject each. Transfer of Credit may apply if you passed it elsewhere in 2022 or later. Related: Accountancy 320, Economics 318, English 302.
