What the chief examiners keep reporting
The examiners' recurring conclusion on Paper 3.4 is inadequate preparation. Candidates handle the familiar frameworks, such as value chain analysis, PESTLE, Porter's Five Forces and Ghana's corporate governance codes, but struggle with less practised models such as the BCG Matrix, the GE/McKinsey matrix and Bowman's Strategy Clock, and with the financial calculations inside the case.
Drawn from ICAG's chief examiner's reports for the 2024 to 2029 syllabus, November 2024 to July 2026. Read every Paper 3.4 report in MSL's examiner insights.
