Question

Analyze in 2 different sentences with 2 different reasons and qualifiers with outcomes, how researching appropriate funding options may help a matric learner to plan financially for further studies (make sure each sentence is worth 3 marks each according to the nsc marking guidelines for LO)

Answer 1

By researching scholarships and bursaries early and thoroughly, a matric learner can identify awards they qualify for and reduce or eliminate tuition costs, enabling a realistic savings plan and on-time enrolment (3 marks).

By comparing student loans and part‑time work options while taking interest rates and repayment terms into account, the learner can forecast total study costs and design a sustainable repayment schedule to avoid unmanageable debt after graduation (3 marks).
