    I am sad that you have failed again 🙁

    Have you watched our free lectures (and the lectures working through several question 1’s from past exams)?
    If you have but still failed then it would be a good idea to take tuition.

    Hi sir
    Thank you for replying.
    To tell you frankly I watched the lectures only once , read the OT notes once, work out the Questions 1 only once.
    I paid more emphasis on Q2,3 and 4.
    Was I wrong.
    I have started revising already. Paying more emphasis on every parts this time. More emphasis on Questions 1. IS THAT OK
    OR do I need tuition

    I think you should put a lot more emphasis on question 1.

    If you do that and you feel more confident then hopefully you will be OK. However if you can afford to attend a course then it can only help you.

    I would suggest that you download our free Study Guide (it is linked from the main P4 page). It has links to all the free lectures and suggests the best past exam questions to use for practice.
    You must get a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers because the more practice the better.
    Also, do watch my free lectures working through several question 1’s from recent past exams, because in addition to obviously working through the calculations I do discuss the approach to the questions.
