    Hi!

    I’m just confused as to what would be beneficial for me to start with. Section A or Section B?

    I remember in my first attempt for P1 I had done section A first which took a lot of time so the time got cut short for section B leaving me with not being able to complete the paper. But in my second attempt, I did section B first and thank God I passed.

    So I’d really like to know what you think would be better to start with.

    I believe it is better to spend nearly all your reading time getting to thoroughly know Q1. It takes several reads to do that and counts for 50% of the marks. Then attempt Q1 first. STOP AFTER 1.5 HOURS AND GO ON TO SECTION B
