    Hi, I’m done practising the exam kit and even though I’ve understood all the concepts and can solve most questions, there were some questions in the kit that seemed a bit advance. I was wondering which topics are mostly tested in Section A of the exam. I’m aware that section B tests budgeting, standard costing and performance management but I need to practice one more exam kit and I don’t have enough time to practice all the questions. I found the work in progress questions the most difficult and was wondering how much of it can I expect in the exam.

    Section A examines all topics in the syllabus.

    The questions are selected by the computer (so every exam has different questions), but it is programmed so as to have a mix of questions from the whole syllabus. No one area is deliberately examined more than any other areas.

    Oh okay. If I need help on an exam kit question how do I post it here? Should I just refer to the question number and which kit I’m using or do I have to post the whole question here?

    If it is from the current edition of the BPP Revision Kit, then just post the question number because I have the current BPP Kit.

    Otherwise you will have to type whatever it is that is causing you a problem.

    I assume that you have watched all of my free lectures? They are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.

    I’ve watched all the lectures yes. I solved a Kaplan exam kit and some of the answers to the questions weren’t explained very well. I’ll be solving the bpp kit soon so I’ll refer to that if I face a problem. Thanks again.
