the cima student

The final set of CIMA pre-seen materials were released last week and the case study in question is so good they named the company twice – welcome to AutoAuto!

You can find the official pre-seen materials from CIMA on the SCS August 2017 case study here.

The SCS exam has surprisingly good pass rates with around 2 out of 3 students passing the exam each sitting. These numbers should bode well for students taking the exam next month.

AutoAuto: What we know?

Based on the pre-seen materials released by CIMA here are some key highlights on what we already know:

• AutoAuto is an electronics design company which specialises in modern computer technology for cars and other vehicles.
• Their business model is based on producing “ground breaking” technology.
• The company is 15 years old and was founded by 3 people who previously worked together in research dept for an electronics company.
• The company was floated on the Upload stock exchange 5 years ago with the 3 original owners retaining 10%, 8% and 7% share of the company respectively.
• AutoAuto’s mission statement is “Making Vehicles Drive Themselves”

AutoAuto: Pre-Seen Analysis

Here is where you should be beginning your pre-seen analysis, firstly by reading through the materials yourself. Secondly, re read them again and make your own notes.

Then I would suggest to watch the below video to get the insight of a CIMA qualified tutor on the AutoAuto case study.
