    Yes, but it's a bit late now. Exam Monday. I can cope with the calculations, it's just the stupid memo's I can't stand!

    i can relate to that for instance it asked for a way to improve the gp% i recommended trying to reduce cost of sales which was wrong according to the answers as it states raising sales price both are correct of course but only one might get credit how do you define which one??

    Hi jimbob

    The best way to sort it out is not to start writing straight away but to analyse all the data given in the question. The answer will be there when you have analysed the data.

    Read the question a couple of times I think more marks are lost by forgetting to do things that the question has asked.

    Don't forget time management is very important, if too long is spent on say section 1 it doesn't leave enough time for section 2 which is usually a bit tricky.

    Good luck to everyone.

    There is usually a tutorial note on the answers that says any valid point raised for a written answer will be given credit.

    I'm the same I'm doing my resit tomorrow. Passed section 1 last June but made a mess of section 2. Also got a 4 month old little girl and can't find the time to study as back at work fulltime too...

    Tomorrow is a resit for me as well and so will PCR on Thursday

    I seem to struggle the most on section two like most people, I am ok with calculating the Ratio's, its the memo parts that I am not! Plus I can never get my head around the tasks 2.2!

    I hope the examiners will be kind to us this time - yeah right!!!

    Good luck everyone x
