SBRSyllabus Coverage and Target Practice?

EEllis1mo ago
Hi, Been a while since i posted on here. Hope this message finds you well. I am considering utilising Open Tuition for the upcoming SBR exam. I wanted to find out whether the free course offered here was geared toward target practice of the exam? In my research outside OT, I notice a number of the standards are being highlighted which are almost certain to appear in the exam and advise to spend more time on these than secondary ones, and i wondered if the OT lectures are geared toward training and preparing us in this way? So in other words, the exam is quite predictive and that half of the standards need more time than the other half. Many thanks and please let me know if this is unclear. Ellis

Hi Ellis, Please could you share what topics are certain to appear in the exam?

Hi, Crystal Sure, i can do that part. As a caveat though, i have sourced information with the use of AI, both on OT, and on Google. I have then proceeded to watch any videos of SBR expert tutors who give some insight into what is likely to be examined. I have then compared for any differences, with 'most' (not all) of the information more or less in alignment with each other. The topics/standards that i have found are most likely to be examined are: *IFRS 3 (Business combinations) *IFRS 10 (Consolidated FS) *Financial instruments (IFRS 9, IAS 32) *Revenue (IFRS 15) *Leases (IFRS 16) *Intangible Assets (IAS 38) *Ethics & professional principles There is likely to be others that will appear as well. I would strongly encourage that you take a few hours yourself to research into topics certain to appear and so that you have peace of mind. I don't know if i completely trust AI as it can throw up difference information at times depending on how one asks the question. Those topics above are the must masters though from what i have researched. Hope this helps and i wish you all the best for the upcoming exam.
