How do I score the 4 professional marks in the SBR exam?

Professional marks in SBR are awarded in Q2 Ethics (two marks) and in Q4 Investor Focus (two marks). Markers award professional marks based on the overall quality, depth, and structured nature of the answer. Having headings helps show structure and planning. Do not use bullet points.

In discussing ethical dilemmas, it is important to link the ethical pillars to the situation rather than just simply baldly state which ethical principle has been breached.

In answering investor focus questions make sure your explanations has a communication style tailored to a specific audience.
