    Hello Sir,
    P5 is my last ACCA paper and I have passed 10 out of 13 papers in first attempt. June 2015 was my 3rd attempt for P5. In first attempt I got 35, then 45 and now 39 :(((((
    Main problem is time management, and it remained with me throughout ACCA exams and now it is frustrating for me. I did hardly 50,55 marks paper and got 39 this time.

    I spend time in calculations, reading questions because I am not so good in Management Accounting from basic F5 level in which I got just 50 in first attempt……….tell me what should I do?

    Thanks.

    i know im not the tutor, but why did you choose p5 if you are not good at MA? Acca suggests that we take options papers in which we felt at ease at fundamental level. Seems like you took an odd bet when you chose to sit for p5 for the 1st time.

    Set a time for each part of the question and STOP when you get to that limit. Go on to a new question/part and come back at the end if you have time.

    It is essential to attempt each question/part you are supposed to.
