Exam Tips for ACCA Paper F6 “Taxation” (UK)

• F6 is very predictable so no tips as such.
• Practise as many exam standard questions as you can.
• Make sure you do to time. After the 15 minute reading time you have 1.8 minutes per mark. If a question is split between part (a) 10 marks and part (b) 10 marks then only spend 18 minutes on part (a) and then move on to part (b).
• Look at all the requirements of the question, can you answer an easy parts first, for example one part maybe standalone and on something very straightforward, so do this part first
• You do not have to answer the questions in the order they are set, if question 5 is the easiest do this one first.
• Question 3 will be the hardest so leave this until last but make sure you leave 36 minutes to answer it.
• Do not panic if you can’t remember something in a question, don’t spend too much time trying to remember it, have a go or even guess. Then you can move on to other parts of the question.
• Above all you need 50% to pass, so find the marks you can do. There will always be more than 50% of the question which is examining core areas of the syllabus, only a few marks will be fringe areas, but you do not have to worry about these as you can find the 50 marks you need to pass.
