    I took the P2 exam in December 2016 but i failed it, got 31.

    Do you have any advice for the March exam and how best to approach the exam and revise for it.

    Thanks

    Hi Dammy,

    I sat the December 2016 exam and it was tough so do not feel too disheartened about the result. There were a few strange topics thrown into Q1.

    My approach was to do all the questions in the BPP practice and revision kit. Also the key is not to spend all your revision time practicing consolidations as in reality this only makes up around 20 marks as the rest of Q1 is on your standards. Make sure you know the basic rules for all the standards which can be done through question practice.

    Lastly, the examiners have stated on numerous occasions that you need to apply these standards to the scenario and not just regurgitate the standards rules. The majority of the marks are for application.

    Hope that helps.

    David

    Thank you David,

    Your reply is very helpful and motivating.

    My plan is to practise as much past paper and learn the standard too.

    Thanks
