About this revision guide

Written for the new Leaving Cert Business specification, first examined in June 2027, and built on the structure of the SEC's 2027 Ordinary Level sample papers: a 90-mark case study and three 70-mark questions in 2½ hours, with tick boxes, true or false and short written answers, and questions that mix topics as the real paper does. Nine years of past Ordinary Level papers (2017 to 2026) are read topic by topic to show what comes up, with the topics that have left the course clearly marked.

It's an interactive PDF. Type your answers straight into the answer spaces on a computer, or write on the pages with a pen on a tablet: in GrindSpot's study viewer (it opens from My purchases and saves your work) or in any PDF app, such as GoodNotes, Notability, OneNote or Adobe Acrobat. Tick the checklist as you go and jump around with the clickable contents.

Every drill has a model answer, and the practice paper solutions show the marks for each part and how partial credit is given, in the style of the SEC marking schemes. Irish businesses, Irish law and current figures throughout.

The book covers the written exam (60% of the grade). The Business Alive Investigative Study (40%) is not included.

Dyslexia-friendly layout: 12 pt sans-serif text, generous line spacing and plenty of room to write.

Original GrindSpot material written in the style of the Leaving Certificate examination. Not an official SEC paper. Every question behind the topic trends is listed at grindspot.ie/exam-trends/business/.
