Hello every body sitting Mac in Dec 2008
i have looked in performance indiactor chapter today in june 2008 sitting i thought it was the easiest of all the questions but i was wrong . Learning the formulaes by heart is not enough 2 score marks in this question i think we have 2 know what is the reason behind each ratio and what difference its making 2 the business .Remember that its a key question in section 2 so i am planning 2 attempt this question 1st in dec 2008 sitting0 -
Hi everyone
I'm sitting this in December too - haven't started studying yet but intending on doing in the next couple of weeks... first Technician level exam! Scary stuff! :001_unsure:0 -
I will be sitting this paper in December although dont start learning the syllabus for another 2 weeks but once its up and running i am happy to contribute to this0

hello every body i have gone through the performance indicator and will be starting variance tomorrow . it was a very good topic to start with as we all know there is 1 major question in section 2 on performane indicator so i am planning to do this question 1st in the paper becuase if we know all the logic and reason for each and every ratio its quite easy to attempt the question in the first 20-30 Mintues OF the paper
any suggesion or help regarding unit 33 will be highly appreciated

My tutor said the main thing with MAC was that because it was so time pressured you should practice, practice & practice. So that the method of answering the questions becomes second nature to you. Even if you get the answer wrong you'll pick up method marks - and there are always more of those. He always said that the books were only good as doorstops but he actually told us that for MAC we should go through all the questions in the back of the book a minimum of three times. :ohmy:
Good Luck.0 -
i am agreed with your tutor but not 100 % yes practice is very good before any exam but let me tell u 1 thing From my june08 sitting i learned 1 big lesson that is not to relie too much on the past exam paper literally there is not even a single question which i have not done before going to june 08 but i still ended up on the unsucessfull side the main reason was i was expecting the same type of scenario and ignoring the main mechanism of the topic and when they throwed some thing little logical i struggled because i was expecting some thing simillar to the last 4 papers . so its better if you make a good grip on the topic 1st and then go for the practice

I didn't think that the two were mutually exclusive.0
-
well it was just an individual opinion from me based on my june08 sitting !!!!!! the strategy to prepare for an exam varies from person to person so its up to you how you approach it0

Variances-just not sticking as fast as I think it should.Maybe practice is needed.0

If I remember correctly, it is because the workers are on paid leave, therefore, you still pay the full monthly pay.
However, I think there are mistakes on the answer paper for question 1.3.0 -
Sorry just re-read the question even though the staff are on holiday is still paid!0

Hello Every Body Just A Week 2 Go In Mac Unit 33 Exam I Hope So Every Body Is Prepared Well.... Last Time They Gave A Service Sector Instead Of A Industrial Budget And I Dont Think So This Time Around They Will Bring The Service Sector Again .... Though I Have Looked Last Year Paper As Well But I Am Expecting A Industrial Budget This Time Around .. All I Am Worried Is About Task 1.3 And 1.4 And Task 2.3 Because It Keeps On Changing And Every Time A New Thing Comes Up0

service sector or not ?
umerali2003
Hi What makes you think it will not be a service sector again ?
I thought it would be as they want to move forward to this in the future.
Well thats what our tutor told us after a meeting with the examiner
Dont they write the June and December paper at the same time ?0 -
yes they write the paper 1 year before but our tutor said that they wont test the same thing one after another because AAT knows that the most of the students learn the answers by heart ... so they will probaby not set the service sector again ... but if u observe there is not a lot of difference between service sector and industrial sector the main principles are almost same ... i am not asking u to completely ignore service sector but there is most likely a chance that this time it will going 2 be a industrial sector rather then a service one.. any ways its my own prediction0
