Cyber risk notes Part D of CIMA P3 syllabus

JJ6y ago
Hi, Could a tutor clarify if the open tuition lecture notes for P3 are updated? I watched some of the cyber risk lectures and read through the cyber risk notes...but then when i attempted the Kaplan exam kit and the BPP exam kit I felt like the open tuition course notes didn't have enough of the info for me to answer the exam questions related to cyber risk and tools etc. Thanks, J

Hi, P3 lecture notes are lecture notes not text books. Undoubtedly more information will be contained in Kaplan and BPP texts and their exam kits will be geared to their texts. We emphasise that our notes and lectures are never stand-alone and you need to also learn from any relevant CIMA material on their web-site and by practising questions (which you seem to be doing). If there is a question that you feel is not adequately covered in our notes and you don't understand the kit answer I suggest you try Google before buying a text (which is only worthwhile if you actually read it and learn its contents). I've had a look at Chapter 8 in our notes and it seems pretty comprehensive to me.
