    Application skills
     
    One of the most common reasons given by examiners for candidates failing an exam is that they have not applied their knowledge to the Case Study scenario.
     
    In a Case Study exam, you need to live and breathe the scenario - you really are that person, working for that company and providing meaningful advice and answers!
     
    To do this successfully, you need to demonstrate your application skills. Application is what gets you the marks you need in the exam.
     
    You will have seen a short video on how to demonstrate application skills in the online study guide, there is a further article on this to take a look at it if you would like a bit of a deeper understanding of this extrenely important exam skill:
