    Congratulations – that’s a fantastic result. Would you mind sharing some of your tips? This is the only exam I have failed so not sure exactly how to approach it. Any advice on how you tackled the exam would be very much appreciated! I only managed to completed Q1 and 2.

    Thank you! I can’t believe myself too because this is the highest mark I have ever gotten in ACCA.
    My tip is in the comments!
    I think it is important to complete all the questions! At least attempt 85% of the question to be safe.
    Be sure to move on if you are stuck because, in every question, there is always some easy marks to earn.

    I would advise you to
    spend 1 hr 30 mins in Q1
    45 mins each in Q2.
    I remember spending about an extra 10 mins in Q1 so I only had less than 5 mins to check everything.

    I think the best way is to practice the full set of PYP in real life conditions to make sure you can finish in time.

    Hope this helps!

    ashleeeyc – did you read the article “How to tackle the AAA Exam”? (Available at https://opentuition.com/acca/aaa/) and/or watch the accompanying video? If you did – it would be great if you could leave a comment below the lecture that might encourage others to watch it/read the article.

    Passed 2nd attempt with 54%.1st attempt got 48%.Am left with APM.The paper was really fair but time is always a challenge.My tips are:
    1) Question practice – I did the whole kit
    2) Have your standards on your fingetips and apply them in the exam
    3) Try to allocate the time as advised in the exam.Dont ever use more time than prescribed, you will never recover it in the exam
    4) If it will work for you….Start with number 3, always the easiest of all and grab all the marks…..I started with number 3, then 2 and lastly qn1 coz when i failed 1st attempt ,I almost spend 2 hrs on qn 1 only to realise that the last one was the easiest
    5) Know your theory and then link it with your standards
    6)Dont panic in the exam, 1st attempt I spent good 20 minutes flipping the paper without even a plan,

    When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.Eventually we will reach our destination.Congrats to all Affiliates.Hoping to be one after my June APM Exam.

    Ah this is so helpful, thank you!

    I’ve got 6 weeks from today so will plan properly now and will definitely use your detailed study plan. Has certainly given me a boost for studying tonight!

    Congratulations again, such a great result.
