Ask the Tutor ACCA AA

Sampling risk

IIlham3y ago
Sampling under reliance and over reliance risk and risk of incorrect rejection and incorrect acceptance are not included in the notes but they are in the lecture. Why is that? Are they no longer in the syllabus?

124 pages of "notes" cannot make every point relevant to the AA syllabus - overreliance/doing too little work is the more likely risk and the one that is most important to understand at AA.

Does that mean I'd need to reference the study text if my goal was to get a high passing mark possibly in the 80s or 70s? Or are the notes sufficient for this purpose?

The key to a good pass in AA is PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE exam style and standard questions so that ON THE DAY, you ANSWER THE QUESTION SET. See my advice here re notes vs a text https://opentuition.com/topic/open-tuition-notes-12 You will pick up points of new knowledge/understanding as you progress through the notes/lectures/end-of-chapter practice questions and then as you attempt revision questions and work through the answers.
