    I believe that the exam technique for Global Law variant is the same as for the English Law variant. can you find that?

    You’re probably not writing enough or failing to state the obvious.

    Have you read the exam technique articles on this site for both F4 and General.

    Work on the principle of Identify, Define, Expand, Apply

    Sarim, I’m sorry to say that you’re probably not writing enough, you’re deviating from the question and answering a question which was not asked, you’re not planning ( 5 minutes per question ) how to score 10 points, you are planning but failing to read the question again after completing your plan to make sure your plan answers the full question, your handwriting is tending towards illegibility, or ( hopefully not! ) you simply do not have the knowledge retained in your head ready to empty out onto the page.

    Of course, it could be a combination of all of these!

    Between now and the exam, read, plan, check, read, plan, check, read, plan, check, read, pl……………………………..

    Just, at this stage, read the exam technique article on this site both for F4 in particular and for general

    Hello Mike,
    F4 GLO is my first exam on ACCA. I have read the first chapter of it and I think I have no time to read all and after that to do exercises. Do you think it is enough If I only learn from past exams? Do they cover all the topics from F4? Thank you.

    Probably – but the more you can do, the better. And how come three months is not enough time?

    Thank you Mike. I work everyday over the 6 PM and I am tired when I arrive at home. That’s why I need an advice – professional one! In your opinion(I repeat my question): do the past exams have covered “enough” study materials for F4GLO? Because I saw that in their answers are much more theory than in study book. Thank you again!

    I repeat my original answer – the more you can do, the easier it becomes. Work through the Opentuition notes and the past exam qs and as as often as you can
