Hi Mei
The best way to see the things that have changed under FA 2018 is to work through the ACCA technical article Finance Act 2018 published on the ACCA website.
If you do need to resit the exam in June (let’s hope not) then you will need to purchase and work through a new FA 2018 revision / exam kit.
The fact that you are concerned about your performance in the recent March exam would suggest that you still have gaps in your knowledge where you will need to use the study materials again to improve that knowledge.
Only use the revision kit after you have fully studied the OT material for each tax.Dear Sir,
Thanks you so much for pointing out that I can use the ACCA technical article Financial Act 2018 to have a better understanding of what have been changed between the FA17 and FA18. I checked the current syllabus of TX-UK previously, but could not really see what have been changed from the short description of the “Summary of changes to Taxation” in the syllabus. Now I know that I had looked at the wrong place.:)
You are very right, Sir, that order a new set of study kit is the right thing to do if it turns out that I do need to take the re-sit. I am already starting watching the lecture videos to review the subjects. Thank you for your valuable advise, Sir! Wish you a lovely day!
Best regards,
MeiDear Sir,
Thank you for your great effort uploading those wonderful notes and lectures for students!
I was wondering if you can point out the main differences between FA2017 and FA2018 for the TX-UK exam preparation. I attended the March 2019 exam but did not do very well. I think I might have to retake the exam. As I am not sure what have been changed between the FA2017 and FA2018, I don’t know how I can better utilized the OT FA2018 notes and lectures. Is it necessary to start from ground zero and re-study everything again?
Also, I used Kaplan exam kit for the March 2019 exam and wrote a lot of notes on the exam kit itself. If I have to purchase the new exam kit for the June 2019 sitting, It will take lot of time to do revision on the new exam kit. Can I reuse the old exam kit I used for the March 2019 exam but keep in mind for the changes (for example, personal allowance in FA2018 has become GBP 11,850.). Do you think this would work?
Your advice and suggestions are highly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Best regards,
Mei
