    Dear John,

    Please give me some suggestion to memorise theory as I hate theory. I do not like to read theoretical topics.

    Thank you

    I assume you mean the ‘written’ questions (because there aren’t really any theories involved with F2 🙂 ).

    There is very little that needs learning. Most of the questions will be checking what you have learned anyway when you learned the calculations.
    The reason for them is to check that you understand the calculations and have not just learned rules.

    So……the main thing is that when you go through the lectures that you make sure you understand what you are doing. If you do, then it makes both the calculation and the written questions so much easier 🙂

    Dear John,
    There is theory in performance measurement which I do not like. E.g, mission statement, goals etc. yes I like to do calculations and concept behind calculations are easily understandable but other theory stuff similar to F1 are unbearable.

    Thank you for reply.

    Hi Irum

    They are not ‘theories’ but I won’t argue 🙂

    However don’t worry too much. As I wrote before, most of anything asked will be really just testing you understand what you are doing.
    OK there might be bits about mission statements etc., but not so much (and nowhere near so much as for F1).

    If you like the calculations and you are happy with the concepts behind them, then you will not have a problem in passing.
