    @caron 95 Concentrate on theories as well .. especially from part c, d , e.
    ie. budgeting, performance measurement and standard costing.

    Use OT notes helps you to understand easily.

    Practise questions from an approved provider. eg bpp & kaplan

    I felt calculation based problems were easy. I failed on my first attempt because I didn’t focu on theories.

    Practise extra Mcq’s from ACCA website..

    Check out others opinion about their exam experience.

    Study the whole syllabus. The examiner examines the entire syllabus. They don’t ignore anything. Study along with the syllabus from the Website !!! It helps a lot..

    @caron 95 Don’t worry you have enough time to prepare. just familiarize yourself with the topics as you prepare. Concentrate on theories as well. Its a mix of calculations and theories. Use an approved provider revision kit. Make use of open tuition resources.

    Lectures are of great help. Follow up the forums. Read other posts and their opinion about their exam experience.

    Concentrate on PART C D E.. especially for theories. I felt they were lots of theoretical questions from these topics.

    All the best !!!

    @evam I should say sajjad07 studied the syllabus and practiced well.

    On my first attempt I got 49% that was just 3 days back. I wrote it on 17.03.17 and secured 71%. All I did was listened to all the OT lectures. I failed because of theory. I studied the text again, made sure I understood the concept. Practice as many questions as you can, both calculations and theoretical.

    Passed with 71% on second attempt. Open tuition resources was of great help.
    Lectures are the best, it helped to understand better. ACCA forums is my favotite. I thank the lecturer John Moffat, who answered my queries no matter how stupid my questions was.

    Hi
    The question is that gearing reduced from 29 to 19.which if following would NOT be a reason,

    1- plant machinery revalued
    2- company issued 10m convertible bonds before yr end
    3- company undertakes 2 for 1 rights issue
    4- company began new equity settled share based payments

    From where did you get this question?
