I got 45 in MA
And i have put my exam on next Wednesday
Could you please tell me if its okay and why i have failedJanuary 21, 2021 at 8:50 am #607394If you mean retaking your MA exam on Wednesday, then if you have booked the exam then that is OK.
It is impossible for me to know why you failed because I cannot see what answers you gave.
January 21, 2021 at 11:41 am #607429No i meant is that because of poor exam technique
If so how can i improve itJanuary 21, 2021 at 4:42 pm #607460The best way is to attempt the mock exams in your Revision Kit and the specimen exam on the ACCA website under strict exam conditions and the time limit.
Also, in Section A of the exam, on the first run through jump over any questions that will obviously take a long time to read or are on topics that you know you have problems with. When you have got to the end of Section A you can then go back and spend more time on the questions that you jumped over.
Allocate your time. For Section A you must stop after 84 minutes and then move on to Section B. Do not spend more than 12 minutes on each of the Section B questions.
If you have time remaining then you can go back and spend more time on the questions that you have not finished.
When there is 5 minutes left in the exam then go back and guess all the questions that you have not been able to do – it only needs some of the guesses to be correct to turn a fail mark into a pass mark 🙂
