Well guys, I have just booked&paid for my f4 exam in December so there’s no turning back now! I’m nervous already & scared that after having my children& having been a long time since I last studied that my brain cells aren’t gonna cope!!
Please keep yr fingers crossed for me 🙂 xxGood luck for December and well done on managing to book your exam had nothing but misery myself trying to use the online payment system for the last couple of days so P7 still not booked yet.
Good luck to you!!!
Just try to go through as much past exam question as possible, and try your best to score them, then you’ll have NO problem passing the real exam! ;DFingers crossed~
Oh, concentration is the most important thing, don’t loss it!
I Hv printed all the PAST QUESTIONS and am hoping that to finish it before the D DAY.
It did take 3 attempts shaun but got there eventually! Think everyone is having the same idea!
Thats a good plan syn213 & davohene. Think I will print off some now if I can get the kids off the laptop!
XxHi Eackary,
started to get very frustrated with the booking system after three days of trying.
Today even lost the left hand pane of the home screen but after much pulling of hair and gnashing of teeth all sorted now and I’m signed up for P7 Int in Brum.
Fingers (and every other part of the anatomy) crossed for December.I booked it yesterday and I am already stressed and thinking how on earth I will study a book of 400 pages which makes me feel like I need to know every single thing in there. :)))
Good luck all.
Don’t think of it as 400 pages. think of it as 30, then another 30, then another.
One doesn’t eat a sandwich in a single mouthful but rather breaks it down into a series of bites that aree much easier to swallow.
I travel a lot with work, often doing the same journeys several times a week and very quickly you stop thinking of it as (say) being Birmingham to Edinburgh but rather Birmingham to the bit of the M6 when the lights disappear, then there to Scotland (where M6 becomes the A74M), then to the A702, then to Edinburgh.
The key is that one does not look at it as a single journey but rather a series of smaller ones and in the same way one should look at study texts in a similar fashion.
All that matters is one chapter… Or even one page.
When you’ve finished that its gone and then all that matters is one chapter / page.
And so on.
Think of it that way and you will get through the books in no time.
And its an awful lot less stressful thinking that you have to understand the contents of 30 pages than 400.
Good luck for December Marla, sure that you’ll get through that book a lot faster and remember a lot more than you think that you will at the moment.
kind regards,
Shaun.You really are an inspiration shaun 🙂
Good luck for December too marla! & u shaun 🙂Thanks Eackary, I figure that we’re all in this together so whatever help, advice and support I can give I’m always happy to share.
My fingers will be crossed for you on the 9th.
good luck,
Shaun.Im also booked on for F4 in Dec 2013 (gutted over my last exam F4 -45%)
But ill pass it this time im booked onto BPP course but i use this more often for my last past exams so im confident this time
Just found this forum by accident – so I thought Id give people my experience.
F4 was the first ACCA exam I sat back in June 2011. (I was exempt from F1,2&3)
I had some law experience back in my AAT days in the 1990’s and I failed it miserably.
However, this time I was a mature student – and self studied at home, and passed with a respectable 64%.At the time I didnt know Opentuition existed.
I made notes purely from the text books and read and read and read them until my eyes bled!!
But what I found the most useful;Make yourself a spreadsheet table for the cases and simply learn it: e.g.
CASE NAME AREA BRIEF DETAILS OUTCOME
Carlil V Carbolic Offer & Acceptance Advert for smokeballs…. etc Contract UpheldI found this invaluable.
I have done similar things for other subjects and am now into my P papers with 4 remaining.
I wish you all the best of luck.
