I am afraid that there is no easy answer :-( The best (apart from listening carefully to the discussion parts of the lectures on here - I talk a lot, but it is because the written parts are so important) is to read the examiners answers. There is no point in just learning what he writes, but really make sure you understand what he is writing. As soon as you come to something that just does not make sense to you, obviously try and think it through, but then ask on the 'Ask the Tutor' forum and I will try my best to make it clear. With regard to which topics need more focus - it is all of them :-( Although again - if you go through all the past papers on the ACCA website, by now he has asked just about everything he is ever likely to ask. But you must make sure you understand because he is clever - he often asks the same thing, but he words the question differently to make sure you have understood and have not just learned an answer.
