    Passed with 90% to my surprise. Now I’m wondering if that could be a potential global prizewinner score

    And also congratulations to all those who got through as well!!

    Hello Sir,

    This was my first attempt writing an ACCA paper (I had 9 out of 13 exemptions). I honestly felt pretty lost during the last 6 months ( I started preparing in March) because I did not know how ACCA papers work.

    However, I started preparing for all the 4 professional exams on my own and using your YouTube videos (SBL, SBR, APM and AFM) and the required texts and workbook. I cleared 3 out of the 4 papers in September 2021 my very first attempt of any ACCA exam.

    My Marks –

    SBL – 58
    SBR – 58
    AFM – 56
    APM – 49

    could you please tell me if I should put it for revaluation.. Like I said before I am new to ACCA.. This is the first time I wrote any paper so I need some guidance on what is to be done. I would appreciate it if you could help me..

    Cleared 70% on my second attempt and this is my last paper! In my first attempt on June 2021, I got 49. This time I prepared in 2 weeks’ time.

    1. I printed notes from here and studied only this (targeted to study around 25/30 pages every day so I can complete in 6-7 days)
    I didn’t memorize any Model but I understood the concept of each model and imagined the possible scenarios in which I could use and made short notes.

    2. Gave a quick read of most SBL technical articles.

    3. Started attempting Mock from Day 3. Attempted 6 papers in total each one every alternate day in CBE Platform. None of the exam I finished on time, but I completed the paper to evaluate myself on the quality of the answer. I scored between 42-53% max.

    4. Just gave a reading of the mock papers on BPP text to understand what type of answers is expected to get maximum score.

    5. I watched Hassan Dossani video all 5 day webinar (I suggest skip day 1 first one hour and watch the rest it at 1.50/1.75X playback speed). I learnt the formats, number of valid points to make and how to answer questions with weaknesses and recommendations.

    6. While practicing on the CBE Platform, after reading the overview, for each task I started writing on the word processer this way, so my answers are structured (Which took 15 min- 20min in proper bold and font size):
    1(a)
    Report
    To : Board of Directors
    From : Alex Larsen
    Subject : Tender for the contract for the construction of the new road in Betal
    Date: XX/XX/XXXX
    This report evaluates “copy paste the content mentioned in the Task”
    Make 7 Points ; scepticism – Question why?! -18 min (all in bold) (later when I start my answer I write my finish time here)

    And then I would read all the exhibits. (My aim was to finish this within 30 minutes) and then start the answers. (I would suggest please do not use pen and paper in this exam cos in my first attempt I invested 15 min planning on paper but ran short of time and left 15 marks) But please keep attempting papers on CBE to find your own comfortable way of approaching the scenario.

    7. To make one point / write one para I try to write 3 lines:
    a. What is happening in the scenario first
    b. Why it is happening or happened or why it is important or significant?
    c. So what? What will happen in the future? Its consequences?

    Sorry about the lengthy post. For those who weren’t lucky this time, please don’t give up. All the very best!!

    0 bHi….cleared the SBL exam (on 2nd attempt) which was my final paper. Congrats for those who passed and those who did not get through,,, Don’t give up.

    For those who will be giving the exam, would recommend the excellent tips mentioned by Nisha2020 above,

    In my first attempt I got 47 and when I analysed what I needed to improve they were:

    1) Time management – so kept practicising on CBE platform – as a thumb rule: divided the total marks (tech + prof) by 2 to arrive at the number of points required, one para for each point and 3 lines for each para.

    2)

    2) contn

    For each point I ensured that it included the consequences/ impact of the point in relation to the scenario.

    Regards
