The following has been copied from https://opentuition.com/topic/administrative-review-4 to start a new thread on this important topic. Original post by @afia.a2109 My Fail score is : AFM- 37 SBL- 36 For both the subjects, I read Kaplan Study Text 2-3 times, solved past exam papers, read Tech Articles…I was not expecting such a bad score. Now I am baffled and with low esteem. Unable to decide whether to go ahead with 1 paper/session or both the papers together…With 6 weeks left in hand..I just don’t even know what must be my modified exam approach. Looking for your guidance & support. Thankyou

OK ... as you prepared for the exams and were surprised at the marks, I am going to assume you have the knowledge necessary to pass these exams - and what we need to do is work on your exam skills. To answer your first question - with SBL on the Tuesday and AFM on the Friday - I think you could prepare to resit both - there is even more cross-over on the exam skills for these exams, now that options have 20% professional skills marks. Please start with these two posts https://opentuition.com/topic/aaa-introducing-professional-skills-into-the-options-exams https://opentuition.com/topic/kickstart-exam-prep-professional-skills-for-strategic-options-acca-webinar And I will write some more about exam approach.
