    Hi Sir,
    In March attempt I failed at 46. I used opentution notes and read the past papers. September attempt is my last chance to pass and to qualify. I want to pass this time to avoid the expiry of passed paper. Please help me to pass.

    Sorry to hear about your APM problem. I don’t know how many times you’ve attempted APM/P5 so I don’t know if it’s been a long-running problem.

    You said you “read” past papers. I don’t know if that was what you meamt to say, but you need to attempt questions then critically compare your answer to the model answer. Usually it’s best to answer a question by first considering the common-sense, practical approach the only after that turn to models. Do not explain models: apply them. Make sure question requirements are accurately addressed.

    As this is your last attempt it is important to buy an exam kit if you haven’t got one a,ready (20% discount on BPP books if bought through this site). Ideally you should also attend a course if possible which concentrates in question practice and exam techniques. You might find a company or tutor who will provide mock exams for you to try and which will then be marked (OpenTuition does not offer that service).

    Question practice is the key and is vital.

    Sir its long running problem. Each time i failed between 45-50.
    You recommend me to purchase a exam kit, does past papers are not enough? and should I purchase BPP or Kaplan?
    Would you please recommend me a tutor who can help me to pass this time or would you please help in this regard. I will solve the mock exam and get it marked by you. Trust me I am at very high risk this time and I need your help.
    I passed my Advance Audit in first attempt following your lectures but i don’t know what technique i am missing in APM.

    Kits have additional questions and also provide much more guidance about how to approach questions and how answers were produced. Both Kaplan and BPP are fine, but you get a discount on BPP if you order through us.

    A web search for a marker produced this:

    I know nothing about this service, but it reads well.
