General ACCAACCA Options - NEW MOCK EXAMS and "Read the Mind of the Marker" articles

Access to FM mock

@accastudentem2021 - if you are looking for an FM mock you need to go the CBE practice platform https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/exam-support-resources/fundamentals-exams-study-resources/f9/cbe-question-practice.html My post is only about new mocks for the option exams because there are changes to how they are examined from September 2022.

Hi Kim,As long as I could remember their was always a mock exam for Most of the exams. I have done the 2 Practice Exams and Specimen Exam 3 times but am finding it repetitive. Will their be a Mock exam for FM and also where on earth could you get more Mock exams they are so hard to find!! I would love to do so much more for prep before the real thing

There are also "sample Qs" for 4 exams also in the practice platform for Section C. The Sample Qs for M/J19 available here also include a section B https://www.accaglobal.com/lk/en/student/exam-support-resources/fundamentals-exams-study-resources/f9/past-exam-papers.html There are also some Qs here https://opentuition.com/acca/fm/fm-revision-mock-exam OpenTuition does recommend that you purchase a revision kit - which would also include two mocks with answers and marking schemes. ACCA provides more free resources for students than any other professional accounting body.

want to know about mock exam

@hasantarekboss - what do you want to know about mock exam?

Hi, I received an email from ACCA "By now you should be practising exam questions to time – make sure you complete the new pre-June a mock exam on the practice platform" I think they mean "pre-SEPTEMBER", but if I check on the platform I find only the mock 1, mock 2 and specimen. Last quarter a new mock appeared few days before the exam and it was useful to practice on something new. Do you know if they will add one? (I don t think so at this point in time...) thanks

@hotteto - I cannot guess what it means "new pre-June a" makes no sense. I see that the M/J 2022 sample exams have been added for the skills exams - but if you are enrolled for an options exam you should find "Pre-September 2022 Mock Exam" as well as specimen and practice exams 1 & 2 in the section "Practice exams - valid from September 2022 session onwards"

Hi Kim, Yeah I did the couse way back in June and was supposed to do the exam in June but never did. So I rang my provider which is Accounting School and they put me on for the Mock Exam so I now have the Mock Exam in ACCA platform. But my question is they use to give mock exams every 3 months without having a provider so if I didnt have a provider like accounting school how would I get them??? Second question is is it the same mock for everyone or are they different??? Thanks

@deftoneseire07 - I have identified in my responses above (August 23, 2022 at 7:34 am and August 24, 2022 at 5:02 pm) the Q practice that can be used as mocks and freely available to all students. A tuition provider may offer their own additional mocks (but are not required to) or may simply provide a marking service of any of ACCA's mocks/practice exams (but are not required to).

I purchased practice test of MA today but I am not able choose any syllabus version due to which I have not started my test yet. What should I do now?

@sq123 - welcome to the forum but your query is completely unrelated to this thread. As you say you "purchase practice test" I presume you mean ACCA's and that you purchased just one. I've watched the video here (have you?) www.accaglobal.com/sg/en/student/exam-support-resources/practice-tests.html and since August 2022 ended yesterday there will be only one syllabus available - Sep2022-Aug-2023 - so I don't think there will be versions. If you still have a query and it is not answered by the FAQs www.accaglobal.com/us/en/help/faq-practice-tests.html I suggest you contact ACCA directly www.accaglobal.com/uk/en/footer-toolbar/contact-us.html

Hi guys I am sitting my first applied skills exam at a centre, what colour is the scrap paper they usually provide? I only ask this question as I am colour blind and not able to write on certain coloured paper.

@yertoh22 – welcome to the forum but your query is completely unrelated to this thread. I have only every seen white paper provided as scrap in the exam. If you have any further questions please select a more appropriate post or start a new thread.

Thanks for sharing, are the answers available anywhere in PDF format?

@tmavfc - please see this post for instructions how to access answers in the CBE platform. They are not separately available as pdfs (unlike past sample exams).
