    Passed second attempt with 56%. It is a tough paper, I’m so grateful that I make it.

    Officially an ACCA Affiliate. Alhamdulillah.

    What I notice in AFM question is that the question will always evolve around investment appraisal question (NPV, APV, IRR etc), hedging question (currency hedging, interest rate hedging), and business valuation question.

    Make sure you are well prepared for this type of question.

    My tips is practice, practice and practice ! Attempt all past papers and make sure you understand the element from scratch, so that when ACCA twist the question a bit, you can still answer the question.

    The most important thing is try to attempt ALL question in the exam. Do not leave any question blank, especially fact question.

    All the best and good luck !

    I personally recommend taking SBL. Do read the textbook once (or twice if you have the time) and jump straight to questions.

    Take note on the five elements of professional marks. 20 marks is a lot. Make sure you make the most of it.

    Make sure you understand the requirement carefully and answer according to the question.

    Do not too focus on the element in the textbook when answering the question. Most of my friends who did not constraint their answer to the concept and theory from the textbook did pass !

    ACCA do not want us to knowledge-dumping, it is testing our ability to be flexible and answering based on the scenario given. It is a business scenario question. Answer it like you are in a real-life business.

    Good luck and all the best !

    Congrats for those who passed, and for who don’t, don’t give up ! Success is awaiting you. I know you can do it, believe in yourself.

    Do not deep-reading the textbook, but instead jump straight to question after finishing a chapter.

    Read technical articles, examiner’s report and do pass paper.

    All the best my fellow friends.
