    Hi

    Can you please recommend some core and important topics for theory parts that tend to come up in the MCQ’s.

    I know everything is important but can you please recommend some chapters or topics from the OT notes that I need to be on top of.

    Its my 3rd attempt in Sept 2017 (previously both attempts stuck at 47).
    I feel I am struggling with MCQ’s specially the confusing theory bits.

    Thank you.

    I am sorry but I cannot recommend for exactly the reason you write yourself – that everything is examined (and calculations are only ever 50% of the exam – the rest are ‘theory’ questions).

    Also, there is no point in using the lecture notes on their own because they are only lecture notes. It is in the lectures that I explain and expand on the notes and this is especially important for the written parts. If you have not watched them then I do suggest that you watch all of the lectures, in order.

    Hi

    I think I am getting more comfortable with the mcqs now. Tried out mcqs from all previous
    exam papers along with opentuition lectures.
    I have observed the style of the exam there are always a lot of questions on Financial systems(money market, capital market, Macroeconomic policies) and Risk Management(Interest rate risk and forex).
    I just realised that I was loosing easy marks in these topics as they require an extra bit of attention and understanding.

    I hope will be better off this time and hopefully pass.
    Thank you so much for your help.
