Hi,
I have only just found your resources i was studying with BPP online, but now do not qualify for their pass assurance anymore. I will being taking P5 for the 4th time in Sept. Previous attempts 38% and 43 % twice.
From what i have read it says need to give practical answers with P5 not just recite theory. When doing questions there are times, where i would have not got the answer ACCA or BPP came up with based on how the question was written. I also find it very hard to mark my on questions when answers say other relevant answers acceptable.
What’s your best advice?
I have a BPP August 2016 Study kit and P&R kit are they still ok if i check the ACCA website for changes? ThanksYes, you are not expected to recite theory. You are expected to respond practically/sensibly to the information in the question.
It might help to think yourself into the question by imagining that you were a manager/owner of the business. If so, what would be of interest and concern to you? What would you want to calculate? How might you respond so that performance of improved?
Obviously, everyone can interpret a question incorrectly and come up with something quite unlike the model answer. Don’t worry about that too much, but where you have identified the requirements correctly look to see how your answer and the model answer compare. Did you identify the key issues? What did you miss?
Make sure you write enough: at least 1.25 pages per 10 marks.

Aug 2016 material is fine.
