    I have relied heavy on the study notes (and other resources including lectures) for the Tax exam coming in March and have now downloaded the PM study notes although haven’t started studying yet. I glanced through and notice 1 significant difference compared to the Tax OT notes.

    There are many gaps throughout the PM notes, ie Subject Header is given then nothing below

    Example Below (and there are many others including graphs with only an X & Y axis but no actual graph data and I don’t mean the Example questions)

    Chapter 2 – Target Costing – Page 8 – Section 4 – Possible Ways of Attempting to Close the Target Cost Gap……….. Then blank?

    I deeply appreciate that this is a free platform, however just wondering if my download went wrong or if this is on purpose as part of the learning strategy taken?

    Thanks as always to the OT team

    Regards
    Craig

    There are not so many blanks, and where there are blanks they are to fill in yourself as you watch the lectures – just as you would do on a face-to-face course.

    The notes are only lecture notes and should only be used if you are watching the lectures because it is in the lectures that I explain and expand on the notes.

    It is different from Paper TX because only 50% of the PM exam involves calculations – the rest is testing that you understand what is happening rather than just having learned rules.
