I got a kaplan book to work questions but i found that many questions are not covered by the note. So it makes me wonder if either my book is beyond this level or the notes are not sufficient. Please clear this out.
September 1, 2019 at 4:33 pm #544080Kaplan amd BPP texts cover the syllabus in great detail. That’s fine, but only useful if you read and remember the detail.
OT notes are ‘notes’ not a text so cover the syllabus in less detail (you will have seen our notes are much shorter than one of the texts. The chances are that you will remember and understand a greater proportion of our notes than a Kaplan text.
Many, mamy students have passed AB using our notes and lectures, COMBINED WITH diligent question practice using a BPP or Kaplan revision kit.
To us a good mark is 50% or above.
September 2, 2019 at 10:49 am #544152How to you recommend i approach questions not covered in the note?
September 2, 2019 at 4:59 pm #544201Kaplan and BPP normally give explanations for their answers. Distinguish between
1 the application of knowledge, as the particular problem set is unlikely to be found in any text so that the correct answer needs to be deduced. Understand the reasoning.
2 questions where knowledge is tested. For these Google can be helpful, but remember this exam is not at a particularly advanced level (though the syllabus is very wide).
