    Hello. This was my 3rd attempt at P5 and I failed at 45 again. Now if the marks were fluctuating, I would have an idea where I was going wrong (maybe it is my knowledge or exam technique)
    So my question is to those who are/were in a similar situation, what do you guys think you’re lacking in? (exam technique, knowledge or lack of practice?)
    I was in a similar situation with P7 but when I changed my technique, I passed.

    Anyways, good day to everyone.

    I also failed with 45 and I think it’s all down to exam technique. Here’s what I’ve been advised
    Go through opentuition lectures all of them
    Read all technical articles
    Go through any revision kit I will be using Kaplan at least twice, before reading answers, try to note important answers in bullet form.
    Practice the last 5 past exam questions on the Acca website under exam conditions if you can
    Hopefully this will help us both get through this paper next time.
    Best wishes and don’t give up, I am also in the same situation, I will be sitting this paper in December for the 3rd time and hoping for the best.
    Will you be sitting it in December as well?

    yes I will be giving this in December. I will start off with basics spending a maximum of 10 days, and then the PP. Needless to say I will be using this website as well.. (since I am on it lol)

    Goodluck to you too.
