Re: Exam less than a month away
Hi k_islam,
For final revision before the exam I think you can do all the chapters questions, revise the workbook questions with practice assessments. You should practice the AAT practice assessments that will give you real experience about how to manage time the real exam.

Re-reading level 4(2022) units for new management role.
Hi All,
I have nearly finished AAT level 4, I have started a new role in a heating company, of a small to medium size.
I have experience in working in Payroll, accounts prep and out-scoured finance team where i worked in improving internal systems and ledger control.
I have a detailed experience in the heating industry, as i was an engineer before training to become an accountant.
In my new role i am managing all the finance function. At current i am sorting out the books as they are a little untidy, i will then be producing management information for the directors. I can see that they could benefit from using budgets vs actuals on their projects and using Activity based costing using labour hours to ensure they are absorbing enough of overheads, and forecast cashflows, budgets, for the servicing division.
A long story short, i was extremely ill when taking my managemnt exam, and lost my memory for the whole month before my exam and just managed to just pass the management unit( don't know how!). However, I used the Osborne books AMC unit and have found i struggled with it, i have used Kaplans books for other units and I find them more useful, therefore I wasnt sure if it is a beneficial use of my time to purchase the AMC Kaplan unit to refresh my self as i cant really get on with the Osborne book any more in trying to refresh my self on the unit.
Disclaimer: I know everyone gets on well with different study text providers, this just my opinion.
All the best and thanks in advance,
Rob

Thank you, I’ll check this out. BPP have just confirmed they’ve missed out Public Disclosure and Fraud Act information from the course book! Was meant to do my exam this Saturday but now I’m not sure. Even if I do my own research via the AAT website it’s all so last minute. Fuming with BPP right now!

Hello Sabbiem,
You may well have done this already but have you looked at the Level 3 Specification on the AAT website? (Level 3 page, scroll down to ‘Read the qualification specification’ and click on that)
I have found it helpful and as it’s from AAT it should have all the content that could be in the exam.
I hope this helps.

Re: How many hours studying the L4 AMAC unit?
Hi k_islam,
It's really hard for the working person to manage their study time specially after a long working day. However, I think a student need to study at least 15 to 20 hrs a week for this unit because it is level 4 unit and you need to be confident when answering AAT assessment. Therefore, it is totally depends on you and I think you can manage it.
Best of Luck.
