How do I do case studies?

[GottaStudyHard]

So I've been reading a couple of case studies and I was wondering what I should actually do with them. I could analyze the situation but who's to say my analysis is correct? An SP9 marker might have a different interpretation of what's going on. This exam is niche and the people writing in April are scattered throughout the world, it's really hard to find someone who is currently studying this exam to discuss with. Any tips on this?

That's a good question and I emphasise with that, having also struggled myself!
Here's a couple of suggestions:
- Going through Lam's Lessons Learnt in relation to many of the financial case studies is useful, seeing if you can think of something that could be said under each of the 7 lessons
- Thinking about the risks and how they were / could have been mitigated could be useful (I'm thinking in particular here about the covid case study).

Any use?

Thank you, that I can definitely do.
