    Hello,Sir John. You helped me a lot getting through F9, with some 15 days remaining i seem confused and worried about P4. I have gone through all lectures and most of the theory junks but P4 is still getting better of me, any idea what do i do from here? Regards

    Practice! That is the only way of getting fully prepared. You must work through every question in your Revision Kit.

    By practice do you mean write answers or go through them if I’m struggling with them?

    Yes – you should attempt the questions yourself first and then look at the answer and learn from your mistakes.

    Thanks, i’ll try. One more question what’s the theory weight age in average P4 exam. Is it 50/50?

    Approximately, yes (although it does depend a lot on which of the choice questions in section B that you select).

    Well after looking out what i do with numbers i will most probably take a shot at theory junks.

    You need to be comfortable with both to be sure of passing.
