Hi there,
Hope you are well

Sorry to hear about your exam and the struggles. It’s extremely frustrating but trust me, you have the knowledge, it’s probably application.
My advice will be read the actual past exams (try understanding the question first and make a note of what you think the answer is, small bullet points) and the answers (don’t attempt them first) but just read and see what’s there.
Then read the examiner comments. 90% of what I read was that candidates don’t understand what the question is asking.

Once I did that, when I attempted the next time, the difference was night and day.

Good luck for your next attempt and hope this helps.

@susandunbar77 I myself have passed 6 exams in first sitting. Not sure about the %age but I think it is quite common. I had a mate who passed all his 12 CIMA exams in one go while I was stuck on 1 when studying CIMA.
I did 6 exams in 18 months and they are doable. Good luck to you for your exams (if you have some left) or congratulations (if you have passed one recently or became an affiliate).

Regards,
Hardip

Hi Ciara,

Hope your exam went well. When you said you logged in early, does that mean that you started your exam early as well?
