Hi, I was doing ACCA back in 2008 after my graduation I started with F1, F2, F3 and passed those papers in First attempt with an average of 70% marks however due to some financial circumstances I had to quite ACCA to start a job and managing my I’ll father at that time. Now I’ve re-register my self with ACCA as I have enough money to carry it out again and it’s important for me to complete the degree for my career growth.
But since I re-started studies (from last year end) it felt way difficult compared to as it was 8 years ago, I don’t know why but I’m finding hard to concentrate and gather focus and I’m really pissed off from myself, but can’t accept defeat and cannot imagine my self being a looser the rest of my life, Can anyone please suggest me how to bring my focus back and how to concentrate more on studies. I’ll be really thankful with positive replies. Thanks
April 24, 2018 at 9:54 pm #448706I totally understand and can relate to that feeling. You have to dig deep to bring back that “will” and motivation to get yourself back on track again.
Being a mature student myself, focus and memory are my struggles.
Every revision I have takes a lot of “effort” personally to actually open the book, read, understand its content, commit them to memory, then practise.

I appreciate your positive response thanksApril 26, 2018 at 12:36 am #448864I would say commitment is the first thing here.
That’s what will make you put in the effort in studying and completing the program.
What is your method of study?
Are you doing self study or tuition?
What timeline are you giving yourself for completing the program?
For me I write one exam per session and made sure I passed on first attempt.
I work full time and I have family with young kids so I didn’t have the luxury to study.
But for each paper, I had the study text and made sure I solved the whole exam kit.
Then come exam day, keeping an eye on time and ensuring that I attempt all questions!

thank you for the response. I’m taking Lectures and not doing self study but these days I think ACCA is more of a Self Study then going for Tuition providers, I normally takes 2 papers in 6 Months but I think I should go with your approach of 1 Paper each 3 months. At my first attempt of F6 I failed with 4 marks because of the time problem as I wasn’t aware about the time shortage. Now going for F5 in June 2018 I can at least put my best and the result will define my efforts. Thank you for a positive replyApril 27, 2018 at 3:08 am #449024@mash85 said:
