Dear sir after watching the lectures of topic pricing or some other topics and after reading the notes i am unable to correct the theoretical MCQs present in BPP kit for that i must have to study the whole book that has text in bulk quantity time is really short and it takes so much to cover the theory of even a single chapter so what should i do now?
September 23, 2014 at 7:14 am #196004The thing to do is to go through all of the lectures and all of the chapters in the Course Notes.
Then practice on the Section B type questions.
When you have done this, then you should be able to answer most, if not all, of the MCQ’s. Any that you can’t answer, then learn from the printed answer, and if it is still not clear then ask in the Ask the Tutor forum and I will explain.
Most of what you call ‘theoretical’ questions (although there is not really any theory involved) are checking that you understand what is happening rather than just having learned the ‘rules’. So when you go through the lectures, obviously follow the arithmetic but make sure you really do understand what you are doing – if not then again, ask in the Ask the Tutor forums.
September 23, 2014 at 1:19 pm #196047first of all sir thank you very much for your quick and great response and sir you are absolutely right but what if examiner gives in the exam isolated theory question for example yesterday i learned the factors that influence on price other than cost those were like Quality intermediaries price perception price sensitivity and so on so what will we do how we will give the ans to such kind of questions when we would not have learned such kind of isolated theory from the book and if we do learn then again the same question rises that how we will cover the whole theory of book there are lots of lots of theory in the book its impossible to cover everything and keep remember each point and almost everything has some advantages and disadvantages and for calculation its not a big problem for me i can handle it… but for theory what should i do now for this…please guide me
September 23, 2014 at 1:29 pm #196050Our Course Notes are not meant to be a Study Text. They go with the lectures, and what we cover in the lectures (which is what we cover on the courses) is enough to pass the exam well.
If you want to get 100% in the exam, then you will need to read and learn the whole Study Text.September 23, 2014 at 8:17 pm #196089no no sir i did not mean 100% actually i am really very risk averser and i do not wanna waste my attempt thats why i was asking but now i got my ans thank you very much 🙂 may God Bless you 🙂
