APM** ACCA P5 June 2014 Exam Results and Genius Hunt Competition **
Plz tell me how should i prepare P5.
Brief Strategy............?????
finally passed p5 on my third attempt 55%, i am now an affiliate
Passed P2, P3, P4, P5 First attempt. Now an Affiliate. To God be the Glory
Final paper Passed 69%. Comiserations to those who weren't successful.
Those thinking of switching to P4 don't even give it a second thought, this is a much more digestable paper and the examiner is very fair and does his best to be very clear.
Every single question on the paper I'd seen in some form or other from doing passed papers over and over.
In approaching these papers you have to read at least the last 3 examiners reports and the areas where he says people are struggling is what he will test. The last 2 reports hinted that he was going to examine the Performance report format and not the Co. performance itself. My approach was also to just do loads of questions and so I did the list of must/could and should do questions supplied by my tuition provider and when I was finished with that I went through the P&R Kit following the list of must do questions for each chapter in the front of the kit, this tuition provider suggests you review the key areas of the chapter via the pass cards and then attempt the questions.
The last month before the exam I used their revision folder which has the chapters summarised but a little more detail than the passcards. then redo the must should and could do qn list. The final 2 weeks I attempted Past Paper exams each day under exam conditions, which meant I did the same questions over a few times but constantly making sure that the info sticks and reviewing the answer and marking guide to see how the marks are allocated.
The last couple of days I wind down by re-reading the technical articles... hope this approach will help some of you as it worked for me
I passed! I passed! I passed! With 56% ..I finally passed after a 3rd attempt!! Now an "Affiliate"... To think that I was sooo pessimistic after d exam for a failure..
To all those who passed like me,"Congrats!!", for all dose who fail,pls don't be disheartening,keep on trying,read d examiner's comment(dis helps me this time),do and redo d past questions and u shall pass.
@Jm84, I concur with ur advice on passing P5,it definitely works n advice dose sitting this dec to follow it
And now, after 4 years journey,I can finally say bye bye to exams and hello free weekends.
Thanks to myself(for not giving up), OT team(for your free resources), my tuition provider and most importantly MY GOD
Scored 61% in P5 at 2nd attempt. I have a grace in doing ACCA exams never failed an exam twice. Even when I did not answer a 10 mark question on VBM. Just answer the question set and practise is the key. Past questions is vital. ACCA is a fantastic professoional course. Now an affiliate.
28 failed for the 2nd time. im not going to give up. hope to make it next time and become an affiliate

Fail at 28 only. attempted 97%, the best attempt of ACCA, but happened to fail....may Allah bestow me n all of us
failed with 44% marks, my 2nd attempt. hope God will see my tru in the next sitting.
Failed with 42%. It is my 3rd attempt though first time of writing it alone. I cannot really say what was wrong. It is my first time of getting my forecast wrong. It depressed me a lot but cannot stop success for me this December diet. Thanks so far - open tuition.
