    Hi

    I am studying PM & FM for September 2020. I gained an exemption from MA for an exam I sat many years ago.

    I understand there is an expectation of assumed knowledge brought forward from MA for both papers. What subject areas in PM are these/what am I expected to know without any coverage in the PM syllabus?

    How would you recommend I go about refreshing myself with the assumed material?

    I posted this in FM Ask a tutor forum also for FM advice.

    Thank you

    In theory anything from Paper MA can be asked (apart from interest, investment appraisal, and statistics (which only came into the MA syllabus very recently).

    However the only topics ever likely to be asked are variance analysis and performance measurement. Both of these I revise in full (and then do more) in my free Paper PM lectures.
