If I just concentrate on Exams from December 2010 to June 2014 (i.e. current examiner, Alex Watt’s exams only) Do I stand chances of passing? What is your opinion? I intend to go through these even 10 times!!!!!! Please advise.

Well, you might need some theoretical basis as well. For example, going through a question and answer on Economic Value Added might not explain what’s going on in teh calculations or why the adjustments are there.
However, you are correct to concentrate on the exams as the questions are often a bit unexpected and are applications of techniques rather than describing a technique.

Thanks Gromit,
My issue though is to concentrate on Alex Watt’s exams (current examiner ACCA P5 and forget about Shane J’s exams. Will this provide sufficient practice??? I am trying to beat time!!

Well, I would certainly start with Alex Watt’s exams; that will give you about 8 I think. Then, if time, go further back, but I would suggest avoiding to old intensely number-crunching Q1s.
