    I failed the March F6 exam at 49 marks.. I have a strong realisation that the Part C Section of the exam that addressed “Higher Skills” illustrated in ACCA’s technical article caused this.

    Is there any video lectures that addresses this area of the exam? It was my greatest weakness in the exam (worth 10 marks) and I believe is responsible for me failing -_-

    If there aren’t any videos, how do you suggest I tackle this area? Thank you.

    There are no video lectures but you should carefully work through chapter 26 which deals with this type of problem. That said you must realise that this will only be a 10 mark question which always contains 4 or 5 basic marks upon which the planning issue is then added and therefore this is not the only reason for failing the exam as you should be able to score higher marks in the remaining 90% of the paper!
