    Is it better If I give more consideration to numericals compared to theory . because the course is too lengthy. If you guys have experience in taking this paper before then plz tell me. whats the percentage of numerical type questions in f3 paper compared to theoritical.
    any help would be really appreciated.
    thanks

    Hi,

    yes you can pass F3 if u leave or almost leave that theory. in Knowledge level what you actually need is to practice as many tests as you can. To the point that you see that you need similar tests in different books and past papers, to the point that you just memorize even things that you don’t understand well (in case if there are any).
    I strongly suggest you to check examiner’s reports at ACCA global and work out those again and again and again.
    there are ALWAYS some tests in exam which are almost same as those. Plus that will give you a feel of how exam level tests look like.
    How i usually did is , i see a debrief of any test in examiner report. I work it out, then i start studying that topic that was tested. Then work out all possible tests on this topic in kit.
    then i see next debrief / solution and study that topic. And next portion of tests , inlduing those from pilot paper of course 🙂

    With all that , no matter you want or not but some concepts will stick in your head 🙂
    I tried to check about percentages of computational vs theory for you , but didn’t find it.
    I guess you can feel that percentage yourself by working out pilot paper , mock exams and CBE demo.

    @cuteleo110,

    just checked,
    it’s working fine.

    As long as YOU post it, why would it be fake i wonder.
    According to your words, i’m the only one who doesn’t check links before posting as well as all the other information that i provide 😉
