Thank you for your post and that has really motivated me, i have failed this paper lots of times but hey your post has just rejuvenated me. Thank u

[tich2010]

The most difficult exam paper i have ever set in my life . No amount of revision would have helped, i think the aim of the examiner was to fail people not examining concepts.

[tich2010]

Question 1 was a disaster , i think this is the hardest exam paper i ever sat. I failed in December but i can attribute that fail to poor time management but this time it was the difficulty of the paper.

[tich2010]

How long did you study for this paper

[tich2010]

How long can someone need to do P2 ? I am yet to start

[tich2010]

Do you really need a solid background in P2 to pass P7? Someone help

[tich2010]

I failed P4 coz i did not attempt one of the questions coz of time management. Where i have managed to be in time was when i started with questions in Section B then finish with Question 1 .

[tich2010]

I failed with 38 without even P2 background and that was for 2 weeks of listening to the exam technique without even knowing any standard . P7 i think its a more practical paper than a theoretical one . Lets not give up we will get there.

Hi may you please email me on tich2010@yahoo.co.uk and might share ideas as i am sitting for P7 as well

[tich2010]

Hi i am sorry to hear that you have failed but do not loose heart . I passed on my 4th sitting . My first sitting i got 41 , 35, 44 and then 58.

It looks like this paper was hard going by the comments . I sat for P3 in March and Q1 i did not even understand it and surprisingly i passed. Dont think much and dont get stressed just wait for the results , u will be surprised that u have actually done well.

[tich2010]

December 2015 and March 2016 were not published by ACCA maybe due to 4 sittings per year.

[tich2010]

I have sent , check your email, wish u the best

[tich2010]

The advice i got during my learning process was , the length of the case should excite you because that is where the answer is . I used to hate those long cases but my attitude changed once i realised that approach, do not be intimidated by the length of the case.

[tich2010]

Passed with 51% 2nd attempt , self study 4 more to go hopefully by september exams

[tich2010]

Call option mate .

[tich2010]

You are correct on that one , otherwise that poll is not a true representative of the actual facts.

[tich2010]

The thing with P3 is answers are not in a multiple choice format , as long as you argue your case you are bound to get marks. That is the beauty of business analysis , its about persuasion. Others on pricing strategy used focus and others etc . The issue will be is your answer supported with facts.

[tich2010]

I would suppose it is due to 4 sittings per yr now.

[tich2010]

The trick in Q1 was of the requirements .

[tich2010]

I gathered that but what were u going to say about those departments , the question was to analyse the issues?

[tich2010]

Question was difficult , was not straight forward. I did well on questions 2 and 4 and i hope i will cross the line.

[tich2010]

Can you explain what was required in part 1 of Question 1 about those departments, i got lost on the requirements
