Hi,
I am going to sit for June 2018 P4 exam.
I heard that past papers older than 2010 is not really useful as it is written by the previous examiners.
I am asking this because I don’t want to practise all the past papers. Can anyone share their opinion about how many past year`s papers should I study to be fully prepared?
Appreciate your response.
Thanks
Yes, you are right. The exams from 2010 onwards are more relevant for practice.
The exam questions before 2010 can be useful, but I found that some of them contain features that are not relevant in the current P4 syllabus. For example, vesting of employee shares in a valuation question, or a 15 mark question requiring to produce a cash flow statement.
So yes, focus on exam questions from 2010 onwards. If practising questions pre 2010, don’t get stressed out like I did when a strange feature comes up.
mmm… I didnt know that. That’s why I found past papers in my Revision Kit from 04 to 2009 so complicated and so differente compared with 2015, 2016…
Thanks
