    Hello Sukaina

    P3 is very subjective paper, it requires better understand and application of models in the question!!!

    I would suggest refer BPP text book and revision kit of your choice..
    Do practice of the questions not just reading the answers from the kit..
    Read all technical articles..

    Practicing the questions will help you to pass..

    Main thing read the examiner feedback or comments about the paper of your sitting.. find out your mistake and work on them..

    Assuming that you know the theories and models, you must then be able to apply those to question scenarios. Question practice is the key. When practising always

    1 Always read the question and at least plan your answer.
    2 Take the bother to write out a full answer for some
    3 Go through the model answers carefully seeing how they use information from the question scenario.

    There are some worked question in the P3 section of this site.
