Sorry to bore anyone with an age old question, but I really need help to shape a study plan leading up to my PTC and DFS exams in June. I am really struggling to keep up with my busy full time job, and after two nights a week at college I can only really manage a further six hrs a week at the moment. I am starting to wonder whether this is enough, and if so, how I should be using this time most efficiently. I do not want to fail either exam and I am prepared to work hard for it, however these two subjects do not come easy to me, and I really am struggling with a good, realistic study pattern. If ANYONE can offer ANY advice it would be greatly appreciated.

    If you have 6 hours can this be 1.5 hours per day?

    If so, I recommend that you work through one question a night.
    By doing questions you really have to think about the task and that will stand you in good stead for the exam - much more than reading the text book which is more passive.

    In addition, I recommend that the questions you do are really revision. So pick questions on topics you have already studied in class rather than new ones.

    Sandy,

    Is there any bad way to revise? I mean is there anything I should avoid doing? Should I do tax / finanace on alternate days?
