Hello sir!
I gave my exam on thursday and i failed.i got 43 marks.my CBE was too unusual as in there were no formulas questions or any questions from other chapters,the whole ppr was based on budgeting,abosrption and marginal costing and variances mixed all together,by mixed i mean 1 question having all of these with 2 marks questions and one 7 marks question in section B..very complicated questions and too much confusion as well.The thing is i didnt have any question which has mix of the above mentioned chptrs questions,which has all the 3 elements.i have to prepare again for f2 so any advice on what i should do as im too much confused.how should i study now.i read the book twice and finished revision kit as well.ur advice will help me to deal with f2.Best Regards,

I do not think that there is much point in reading the Study Text again.
Have you watched our free lectures? If not, then they might be useful to you for revision.
Otherwise it is simply keep practicing. You say that you have finished the revision kit, but I would still go through it again (doing the questions under time pressure also).
If you are able, then maybe get the Kaplan Kit (if you have been using BPP’s, or get BPP’s if you have been using Kaplan) because then you will have different questions to practice.Do not concentrate only on marginal, absorption and variances (although you can always expect a large number of questions on these areas). As I said, the questions are chosen at random and so next time you will likely get some questions on the other areas.
