Hi.
I did March exam. It was my 2nd attempt. I did not finish everything...
It was better that previous time.
1st was tricky with multiple choices. Don't think it was from our usual study books.
2nd was doable but I needed a bit more time to think.... Did not finish.
There were weaknesses to identify and describe the effects on 5th. Was not that hard but you know - you need to answer their answers....
There was task to calculate which product should be continued and which stopped to produce.
I do not remember other parts that well, but overall feeling is it was not horrid. There was a bit more than decent amount of text to read.

I am using Firsts Intuition tests and guidance. I like how they present the key points.
I do not believe you can really read a book and pass exam. The synoptic is amazing business plan not a knowledge test.
Set up your budget towards synoptic and do not to overspend.
If you work in accounts and finance, you already exceeded the synoptic.

I'm wondering is everyone gets slightly different questions. Have you looked at the pre release material. I found it useful to read this and then do a swot analyse on the company in preparation for the exam. I found both of the practice tests on the aat learning portal, and also reading through the answers and comparing with my answers. Also there is a printable exam on there that has ideal answers. Doing the greenlights tests helps. Knowing how to calculate your ratios too. It did test on basic knowledge though. One question asked for definitions of fixed costs, variable costs, semi variable cost and stepped costs. Then you had to say how the scenario they had described related to these types of costs.

Hi Genesta,

Do you still have first institution account. If you don't mind can you give me the access so I can prepare.

Thanks
