    Hi

    Do you think just studying the pass papaers is enough? without going through the notes. Im just running out of time and dont know whats the best approach in order to pass.

    I don’t think you will learn enough theory just going through past papers. The model answers will apply the theories, but you will not necessarily understand that without understanding the theory. When you see a theory mentioned and used in an answer, go to the notes to learn how the theory can be used.

    Do that if you want, but that’s was not my suggestion. I had suggested: try a question and use that as a reason to go to the notes to learn the theory. That way you see both the theory and its application to a question.

    It’s up to you.
