    1) Before exam day revise Consolidation , Cash flow and Company Financial Statements.
    2) Start your exam by attempting section B first.
    3) Don’t waste too much time on single question calculations. Didn’t get the the right answer? Chose option C and move on .

    Best Of Luck For Your Exam.

    Since shazadsah has not replied yet, them I will on his behalf 🙂

    It doesn’t matter which option you choose – A, B,C or D – the important thing is that if you don’t know the answer or if you are running out of time, then you must guess. You must give an answer to every question because even if it is just a guess then there is chance you will have guessed right and got the two marks.

    Two marks is nothing, but it is everything if you would have otherwise have failed on 48% 🙂

    Thanks Sir John for your kind consideration, well I mentioned option C just because its a physiological research that mostly option C is the right option but it is not the fact therefore when u are blank and do not know any option then only choose the option C.

    That may be the case if someone is manually ordering the answers but I would be very surprised if ACCA did this, seeing as the F3 exam is computer based and it is easy for them to randomly distribute the answers between A, B, C and D.

    They key thing is to pick an answer – if there are any that you feel are obviously wrong then discount those and pick between the rest, otherwise just pick randomly.
