Hello there,
I have private lectures on PM. i am almost finished with lectures. I have not practiced any questions other than the ones discussed in the class till now. I had tried to do some questions from the kit, but the questions seemed too complicated.
So now could anyone suggest a way to kick start my practice sessions. Which topic to start for section C questions. And also what area are expected to be more likely for section C in the exam, so that i can practice more from that area. As of now im totally doomed here.
Any additional tips are always welcome.Thank you in advance

This is more important with the objective testing as the syllabus can be examined in a lot more breadth. Section A is comprised of 15 objective test questions. Each question will be worth two marks and questions may be either narrative or calculative in nature. This mix of questions and the nature of objective test questions mean that some questions will take longer to answer than others. Section A will include questions from the whole Performance Management syllabus. This means that, more than ever, it is important that candidates make sure that they cover the whole syllabus when preparing for the exam.
This second section of the exam contains three questions comprising five objective test items worth two marks each; therefore, each question is worth a total of 10 marks. These questions will be based around a common scenario ‘case’ and can come from any area within the five main syllabus areas. There will be a mix of calculative and narrative marks.
The third section of the exam will comprise two questions worth 20 marks each. These questions can be either one full 20 mark requirement or broken down into several requirements. These questions will come mainly from syllabus areas C, D and E but may include requirements centred on the learning outcomes in syllabus area A.
This is decision making techniques, budget and control and performance measurement and control.
Have a look at the syllabus. - AuthorPosts
