Syllabus Confusion

“There are a few additions but there have been no single deletions”

So what makes you think that a 2014 text will cover everything??!!!

It won’t cover the additions

However, the opentuition course notes and lectures are up to date and should be a good basis for you from which to study

However (again!), I suggest that you keep your study text from 2014 closed and that you MUST invest in an up-to-date revision kit / exam kit from one of the reputable publishers (note the 20% discount on BPP material available when you buy through opentuition!)

And then, on arrival of that kit, having watched the lectures and repeatedly read through the course notes, get stuck straightaway into attempting answers from the revision kit

Don’t lose heart when you find that you’re scoring only 20% or so on your first time through – that will improve to 35% – 40% on your second effort and then 55% – 60% on the third time through those same questions

And then the sky’s the limit! How high a score do you want to achieve? High 80s? Mid 90s? The more often you go through those questions in a revision kit, the higher will be your score

Use a study text only when there is something that you fail to understand or where there’s a topic that you would like to know more about

And, even then, as an alternative to opening the study text, you can post your question on this Ask ACCA Forum and I shall get back to you

Hint: do NOT write your answer attempts in the revision kit itself – use a separate piece of paper to write out your answers. In that way, subsequent attempts at those same questions will not be influenced by your earlier efforts

OK?
