Ask the Tutor ACCA MA

F2 MA exam

DDivyesh3y ago
Hey John, I’ve done the ma exam yesterday and got 37% and 31% few Months ago. I’ve watched lectures done revision questions and done Acca mock exams. I’ve also got bpp revision kit and would you advise me to reuse it or buy kaplans one so different questions come?

I am sorry that you failed the exam again. I assumed that you have already worked all of the questions in your BPP Revision Kit. However did you attempt them all without looking at the answers, and did you attempt them under time pressure (especially the mock exams in the Revision Kit?). The two main reasons for failing are partly not fully understanding all of the topics (which is why it is so important to attempt questions before looking at the answer, and then learning from your mistakes and looking back at the relevant lectures if needed), and making silly mistakes or not finishing the exam because of the time pressure (which is why it is so important to attempt the mock exams under time pressure to get used to it). I would work through your BPP Kit again in the way that I have written above. If you do find that you remember all of the answers from having worked through the questions before, then it is worth maybe buying a Kaplan Exam Kit because you will then have different questions to attempt. Any questions that you get wrong and are not clear why having looked at the answers and watched again the relevant lectures, then ask in this forum and I will explain.

Can i pass the MA and FA exam with high marks by only using OT resources and a revision kit and not using the study text ?

Yes you can :-) There are many posts here from students who have passed the exams with high marks having used only our resources!
