    Hello,

    I am planning to resit PM in March. What are some good advice for retaking and passing on the second try?

    Hello. Here is some advice/tips for passing F5::
    1. Practice past paper questions as much as possible.

    2. PM is more than just calculations. Don’t solely focus on calculations. Pay attention towards more theoretical concepts (e.g. balanced scorecard) as these are highly likely to be tested. Cover all topics.

    3. Learn how to analyze
    Arguably the largest obstacle students face towards passing the exam is the inability to analyze. Saying that “the variance is adverse, indicating a poor performance” is not enough. Why the variance is adverse. Give your opinion and justify it , that would be valid

    4. Attempt ALL Questions in exam and ensure time management, keep track of time.

    Hope you find these tips useful.
