There could be several reasons why you haven't cleared a paper so far. It's important to analyse your study approach and identify areas for improvement. A fail could be due to inadequate preparation, lack of understanding of the exam requirements, or not practicing enough exam-standard questions. To improve your study approach, consider the following tips: 1. Review your study materials: Ensure you have the latest edition. 2. Watch lectures: Take advantage of free lectures available to you to enhance your understanding of the subject. 3. Practice exam-standard questions: Purchase a Revision Kit from an ACCA-approved publisher, they contain a variety of exam-standard questions. 4. Seek clarification: If you come across any concepts or questions that you're unsure about, don't hesitate to ask for help. Utilise forums or seek guidance from an experienced tutor who can provide clarification and support. 5. Time management: Develop a study schedule that allows you to allocate sufficient time to every paper. I would personally say your technique lacks something …..what that is, is for you to identify. I believe it could be exam technique preparation and order of questions in the exam. You must practice exam standard questions of all sections A, B & C I would also advise you to review how you attempt the exam. Do you do A, then B then C? ………..Perhaps consider C, then either B then A, or perhaps C, then A, then B.
