    Hi,

    I am resitting p7 in December while also sitting p3. For p7 I am just doing exam questions.

    For p3 though I don’t know what to do as I have never sat this exam before. I have the lsbf notes and bpp revision kit – should I just read the lsbf notes on all the theories and then do exam questions? I also have the bpp pass cards.

    Is p3 more about the case study instead of the theories?

    Basically i have a full time job and want to pass these exams in December this have only 5 weeks to study (have not started studying yet) how do I pass?

    Thank you in advance

    P3 requires you to know the theories so that you can apply them to questions. You rarely, if ever, have to explain theories in the exam, but you have to know them to apply them. The exam cannot be passed using common sense. Theories are important.

    Read the notes then attempt quesrions, carefully studying the answers.

    Any mentioned in the notes should be known.

    Thank you – is 5 weeks sufficient time to study for two exams and pass more importantly? I work full time and don’t find too much time to study. Any help appreciated. Thanks

    It is not very long if you are in full time employment so have limited study time.
