Hi Mike/Anyone Else,
I have taken 2 of ACCA’s purchased practice tests for F4 and have got 47% and 50% scores respectively.
I took the OpenTuition F4 Section A Simulation tests and got 55.7%, 67.1% and 64.3% respectively.
I wonder if the OpenTuition tests are too easy? I scored over the pass mark of 50% quite easily. I would say some questions kept coming up again and again!
Anyway…
There seemed to be a pattern of topics which came again and again as lowest scored.
For me it was:
– Resolutions (types)
– Essential Elements of the Legal System (Courts binding)
– The Law of Obligations (mainly formation of contracts)My question to you is specifically, what can you advise so that theses topics are not lowest scored again.
Before each test I used to prepare before taking the test under timed conditions.
I am getting frustrated that the same topics are failed again and again!
Should I watch the lectures for those topics again?

The OT questions seem repetitive but if there are two questions that are EXACTLY the same, I would be surprised
March 17, 2015 at 6:51 pm #233009I came across 3 of the same question at the end of one of my OT tests!
They were exactly the same but had differently worded answers!
And yes I am using Beckers! And I have tons of past papers sourced from online to do!
Oh well, I should get back to revision!
Thanks for your help!
