Thank you Opentuition

Pass, Thank you John for your wise support!

Two words of advice I will give anyone planning to take the exam are:

1. Get the knowledge
2. Practice

1. Get the knowledge:
This involves making sure you are using the most effective method of studying, e.g. self-study or getting a good tuition provider. The lectures on OpenTuition is very good. I will highly recommend getting a study text and a revision kit from an ACCA approved content provider e.g. Kaplan or BPP.
Also, think about how many papers you are sitting in an exam. Depending on other current commitments, would it be good to do maybe just one paper at a time rather than two? I find it better to focus on one paper and pass than do multiple papers and fail them. By passing the papers one at a time, it helps keep the momentum.
I heard a quote in a movie that says:

“The steps you take don’t need to be big. They just need to take you in the right direction.”

2. Practice:
When you study, make sure you have got the knowledge and understand what you have studied. One way to ensure this is to practice exam standard questions.
Practice is very important for many reasons: you intensify your understanding, detect any weaknesses, and enhance exam technique. All of these are very important not just to your exam success, but also to your whole studying experience and also at the workplace.

One thing I realised from my early papers was that I fail not because I don’t have the knowledge, but because I have not practiced enough.
So I say: Practice, practice, practice!

I will say one thing to those who failed their papers:

Failure is not final, failure is a part of our journeys and sometimes a vital part of our successes. Some of us who passed have failed once or several times before.
In all things, it is the courage to continue that counts. So don’t give up, press on, and enjoy the journey. You are already a success when you decided to sit the exam. Keep putting one step in front of the other. You can do this!

All the best of luck to everyone!

Don’t give up.

passed it on my 5th try.

I would suggest buying the kaplan study text to go along with opentution videos.

got 56% only but i am not complaining. passed both the PM and FM exams on my first attempt with barely 3 weeks of study time for both papers. i just relied solely on OT’s notes.

Passed 55% 😀

You need to practice a lot, both the BPP Revision Kit and time management skill. I don’t know why but PM made me kinda nervous, I felt that I was doing okay but my mark is just enough to pass. I guess I misunderstood some parts as I didn’t have enough time to attempt all the question in BPP Revision Kit.

Passed with 61%, thank you Opentuiton.com

Passed 53% first attempt. I thought I was going to fail because I made a hell of mistake in the exam.

hi did you only use open tuition? and what was the time phase you used to study for exam.
I am thinking of attempting this paper for June exam I wanted to do it March but I feel i won have enough time.
I am doing Law in March and want to do another exam with it so I think PM will be good.

Fail again so sad this is my 3rd attempt but no giving up insha Allah
