IMPORTANT! Examiner’s feedback from marking the current RAP submissions

OBU is currently in process of marking the November 2022 RAP submissions. Instead of waiting to publish their insights in the Examiner’s Report, they have decided to release them early so the current students can benefit from the findings.

OBU has created YouTube videos to address these findings. I strongly recommend that you watch them to ensure you don’t repeat the same mistakes.

PPT Presentation – although some might consider this to be an easy part of the RAP project, there are some students that don’t reach a pass. In most cases, the presentation lack details of the research. To find out more, check out this video.

Topic 8 – a certain percentage of students have failed to pass this topic because they presented the old-style Topic 8 research. You must follow the latest topic 8 requirements. More information in the following video:

Topics 4 & 5 – in some cases, the students simply fail to make a connection between financial and business performance. You need to ensure that you make a critical analysis as to why the company had an exceptionally good or poor performance. Here are YouTube videos with the insights for Topic 4 and Topic 5.


I hope you find these videos helpful and that by understanding what is required of you, you will maximise your chances of passing your Research and Analysis Project.

Good luck!
