Hi Mike,
I am very much confused on how to revise for this exam. I have learnt the topics. Also gone through section a questions once from the kaplan exam kit. I know there are areas where I am weak on section so I will be going through them again.
But in terms of Section B, what is the best way to revise. Go through the sequence the questions are in or do the questions per standard
Where can i find more questions on Section A?
Your help is very much needed. As i need to come up with a timetable till the exam day
Look forward to hearing from you soon

The Kaplan questions and answers are not EXACTLY the same as the examiner’s questions and answers – only BPP have the right to copy them exactly. They’re not a whole world different but …. they are different.
For section B question 4 log on to IASplus website and start reading about current issues in accounting
PwC also have a “financial reporting update” website ( I can’t remember the exact name ) so log onto that ( if you can find it! )
You say you’ve learned the topics? Start going through the past questions 2, 3 and 4 (questions 2 and 3 tend to cover a variety of IASs and IFRSs)
For twelve and a half minutes plan what you would have written, and then check the printed suggested solution to see how well you would have scored if you had then spent the remaining thirty two and a half minutes writing out your plan
Pay great attention to the layout in the suggested solutions and, in articular, headings, underlinings ( although many texts go overboard with their underlining )
Don’t get despondent about the length of the printed solutions – these are prepared by tutors with no time constraints and ready access to reference books.
There are no more questions to section A – section A for 50 marks has existed only since December 2007
If you can get hold of any P2 equivalent ( paper 3.6 ) exams from earlier than December 2007, the questions 1 in those exam are effectively the 35 mark section of the current questions 1
