*** ACCA P4 June 2018 Exam Results ***

Passed and done with ACCA.

P4 is the only paper that I need resit….
Didn’t practice for March, which I attempted 70 marks in total and got about 35…
Practiced for Jun, which I attempted 86 marks and got 60.

The only tips for ACCA is 1) practice, practice and practice, 2) read technical articals in student accountant magazine.

Good luck to everyone!

Thank you OT, I listened to John over and over again.
I attempted about 72% of the paper and got 50.

Passed with 58% on 1st attempt even though completed only 80% of the requirements. So over the moon 🙂 I am an affiliate now.

There is still a 4th chance, a 5th if not the 4th. So it’s too early to abandon. I could see that in March exam you got 44% and now it’s 45%, it means that you’re getting there. For me, it’s my first attempt and failed with 40%, I passed no P paper but not looking forward to giving up at all.
Stay perseverant
Good luck

50% now an affiliate-l do not know my next step now .

28 1st attempt

Mar – 29%
Jun – 38%

Not disappointed, just tired of it now. It’s my last exam and it’s showing me flames. I was not using OT on both occasions. I will give OT a try for the Sep sitting.

How should I use OT now that it’s a resit?

I got 31 marks on my first attempt (self study ).did not use Opentuition thoroughly even though every person here said how awesome the lectures were…on my second attempt I decided to give in completely..watched each & every lecture here on P4 even some from F9 (my base is really weak because of self studying) practiced a lot..attempt each question at least twice..and practice the last 5 years of past papers.
And even though I managed to attempt only 75% of the paper I got a Pass …so its all about handwork and giving in completely ..best of luck!

I failed UK P 6 three times with 35, 33, 27 in Dec 17, Mar 18, Jun 18. Giving up , so please advise which optional to take P 4 or P 5 ? Those who have taken both of these papers which should I go ?

I have easily cleared P 7 as I am a wordy person rather that numbers one. I hated F 5 and barely passed on 3rd attemtp. Enjoyed F 9 and understood concepts much better that in F 5. Passed on 2nd attempt with higher mark than in F 5. However, I’ve red somewhere that P 4 is a too technical and quite specilised area syllabus (like P 6). You have to know many things than in P 5 where you do not have to have the special knowledge but common sense. But I did not F 5 concepts well . Do you think that good knowledge of F 5 is a key to pass P 5 ? I did not like P 3 but passed it easily with no preparation even with marginal score.

Failed 3rd attempt with 44%. TBH it’s more than I expected – I found the paper very tough. I just can’t seem to pass this paper. It’s my last one – aaarrrggghhh!!!

for those that fail….courage is going from failing to failing without losing enthusiasm,you don’t have to be great to get started but you have to start to be great… lets get back to the books to get the pass!

@Sheelagh

Don’t give up. This is a very challenging paper. I have just passed on my 4th attempt, at 45% it is purely exam technique. The only advice I can offer is exam practice, exam practice, exam practice and answer everything. The time pressure is your biggest enemy in this paper, the more experience you have of answering questions within time the better.

Good luck.

First attempt: 33% fail
