@Acca 2018
Same here… work, husband, one year old son… studing at nights… and passed!!! 77% 🙂
And 3 more in such mode…bifg challenge!!Magalena
Which resources you have used and please explain how do you studied or practiceHi Viyanna, BPP study kit + Open Tuition notes + ask the tutor seccion…
I studied systematically, each day apart from fridays and saturdays.
I had no time for practice (to do 4hours exam with a one year-old baby is absolutely impossible :)) and this was not good, during the exam i run out of time, and wrote the answer to further questoons completely without plan. But anyway I passed.
Anyway doing the exercises or at least reading the answers should helpCongrats to those who succeeded and for those who missed the way, try to refresh, rebuild and take confidence again because ACCA is not just a test of skills but it’s also a test of perseverance. So for me nobody here should abandon the papers, let’s try again and find a strategy that fits our personality and really spend maximum time to practice because practice makes permanent.

Passed SBL with 58% without any preparation no kidding!!! ( First attempt). I can’t believe it.I felt the question was general and I attempted all the question and gave anecdotes while writing the answer.
I was not prepared enough so stopped preparing thinking I don’t have enough time, but I prayed to GOD and gave it a try and attempted the exam. Very happy at the moment, Got motivation to finish off with the remaining papers.hey can you please explain what sort of anecdotes did you write, did you connect different part of question with anecdotes, or explain different standards in the anecdotes
Hello.
Congrats you passed. Could you please share with me some kinds of study documents. Gonna take SBL Mar19 and starting studying now 🙁1st Attempt: September 2018 (Failed – 46 marks)
I took chances by taking P3 and P1 when the syllabus was about to change. Unfortunately, did not pass P1 so had to re-sit for SBL. Since the syllabus content was like a combined of P1 and P3, did not take any classes for SBL. Went in for the exam and failed. Reason being-too much model/theory application rather than case application and lack of exam techniques.
2nd Attempt: December 2018 (Passed – 63 marks)
This time I joined revision classes just to get the proper exam techniques. Here’re few tips that I can share with you guys:
1. Don’t focus too much on theory/models. Sometimes, simple common sense goes along the way.
2. Allocate marks per page strategy. Eg: Q1a has 8 marks, allocate two pages and immediately labelled on top the Qs no.
3. Set up formats for “ALL” Qs first (after allocating pages)
4. Read requirements, identify key words and use sub-headings
5. Once everything set up, just read through the exhibits and write answers directly to spaces provided. Read…write…read…write… If you plan to finish reading ALL exhibits first, by the time you plan to write, you may forget certain facts already and waste time flipping the exhibits again.
6. Pluck facts from case>Match with relevant requirements>Elaborate a bit more eg: why it’s good or bad?
7. Be generous with spacings and page allocationThe techniques require practice. At first, it may feels a bit uncomfortable because we have to spread out answers rather than focusing on one particular question but as we read along the exhibits, the empty spaces will be filled up. It’s all about matching up facts in case with the requirements.
Note: Just for disclaimer, this is not 100% guarantee pass techniques. It may work for some but it may not work for others. Best to evaluate what suits your style and plan accordingly.
Hope this helps!! All the best fellow ACCA students ^^
