Please find attached our attempts at the Mod 1 2007 paper Questions 1 - 3. [Q2 and Q3 filed now separately PJW]
This was done under time pressure and therefore may be lacking in content!
Cheers,

ps: thanks for your comments on our previous attempts. They are very helpful! We hope to keep practising until the exam.
Like the attempts at this question earlier in this thread, you struggled a bit with this one. Many of the same comments apply particularly to HP's answer; you need to be clear what you consider to be a risk and choose carefully with a thought to the mitigations related in the second part of the question. The majority of the marks were for this second portion and whereas there the bare bones of the answer it was really just a skeleton.
I much preferred LO's answer; again there was not enough there but that which was included was good. The tabular presentation worked well and the risks were generally true risks, adequately explained and covered a fair range; similarly the mitigations were suitable and described in a sensible level of detail. If only the answer had been twice as long and had carried on in the same vein, then we might well have had the first good answer to this question.
Actually if you'd done this question together in a study group session and Hitesh's skeleton had been given the Laura treatment then I think you'd have submitted a very worthy attempt; in the exam of course you are time limited and on your own. For now though, take advantage of being able to look at the various attempts posted here and reflect how you could have done better and hopefully some of this will stick with you when confronting the exam.
