I'm struggling to revise for my Professional Ethics exam, any ideas?

I'm revising for my PETH exam and every time I think I've covered everything a random questions pops up and stumps me. Does anyone have any revision tips they can offer/areas I should be focusing on more than others for the purposes of the exam?

Also, is the bulk of the exam regurgitating definitions or multiple choice?

Sorry if this is not what this forum is for, I'm just really struggling and I'm worried I'm going to fail!

I've just started this unit, with only a few weeks until the assessment. I've been making bullet point notes, incorporating what was covered in the class and what is in the book. I find it a lot easier to remember it that way. Also, I use the practice exams and green light tests on the AAT website to help me revise.

Also, my tutor gave me a useful way to memeber to fundamental principles
PIPCO
Professional behavior
Integrity
Professional Competance and due care
Confidentiality
Objectivity

Best of luck with it all.

Ooh thanks for that acronym, that's really useful! I'll give bullet points a go.

Thanks for your help, good luck to you too. :-)

PIPCO is great to remember, really helps a lot as in 90% of the questions you need to refer to one of them.

Another good acronym to remember is ASIFS
Advocacy
Self-Interest
Integrity
Familiarity
Self-review

They should help you answer your questions giving you more to write about - I just made sure I wrote as much as I could remember for each question if they asked for two problems I would give them 3 just in case ha ha Good luck!
