      2016年9月ACCA考试虽然告一段落,小编为大家整理了考试的tips,方便大家收集,以备以后考试时候可以作为一个复习的方向。

  Section A will be a compulsory case study question with several requirements relating to the same scenario information. The question will usually assess and link several subject areas from across the syllabus, and will require the demonstration of high-level capabilities to evaluate, relate and apply the information in the scenario to the question requirements. There is often some financial or numerical data in the scenario and marks will be available for numerical analysis which supports your written argument.
 
  Section A continues to consume time in reading and absorbing – three pages of text and numbers are becoming the norm. Thus, students must not underestimate the importance of practising these 50 mark questions not only from a knowledge perspective, but, critically, from a time management and “effort” perspective: reading; assimilating; utilising; all take time and to be effective in these three activities needs practice like anything else. Your prospects can dramatically improve if you follow this advice.
 
  Section B questions are more likely to examine discrete subject areas. They will be based on short scenarios, and you will be expected to apply information from the scenarios to the question requirements. Again the questions can be drawn from all areas of the syllabus, and the limited extent of the choice (two from three) reinforces the importance of covering all areas of the syllabus. It is also highlighting the point that we have seen calculations examined in the optional Section B questions as well as in the compulsory Section A question. This is a trend we expect to continue. A study strategy which includes making time to revisit the numerical areas of the syllabus to refresh knowledge would be wise.
 
  P3 has the following syllabus areas:
 
  A Strategic position
 
  B Strategic choices
 
  C Strategic action
 
  D Business and process change
 
  E Information technology
 
  F Project management
 
  G Financial analysis
 
  H People

 
  To stand the best chance of passing P3, you need to have a good understanding of the entire syllabus. This will enable you to choose the questions you believe are the easiest to pick up marks (for instance because it is easier to understand the requirements, or easier to structure an answer, or easier to pick up knowledge marks) rather than having to choose questions because of your own restricted knowledge of the syllabus. A review of the exams in the past couple of years reveals that all the key areas of the syllabus have been examined which, again, shows the danger of question spotting or ignoring areas.
 
  General advice
 
  The P3 exam is 3 hours and 15 minutes long. There is no longer 15 minutes ‘reading and planning’ time as this has been incorporated into the actual writing time. This has resulted in 1.95 minutes of writing time per mark on offer. Ultimately when it comes to using the time in the exam hall it is important that you play to your strengths and use it in a way that works best for you.
 
  You may prefer to use the first 15 minutes of the exam to plan your answers, alternatively you may choose to start the exam immediately and reallocate the 15 minutes previously making up the ‘reading and planning’ time across the whole exam, thereby planning question by question.
 
  Regardless which approach you adopt it is crucial that you have determined which approach you feel most comfortable with before entering the exam hall.
 
  Ensure you place close attention to the verbs used in question requirements. The verbs used indicate the number of marks available. For example, the verb “explain” is a level one ACCA verb and requires a brief explanation and will score one mark if properly explained. The verb to “discuss” is a higher, level three verb, and requires more input as it means making arguments for and against a particular issue.
