remembering formulas

Does anyone else have any problems with remembering all the formulas in Unit 6, breakeven, profit volume ratio, margin of safety - the list goes on, and the exam is in 6 weeks, havent even looked at limited factors yet!!!
Any suggestions to remembering them all.
Also - does anyone know if we need to learn the layout of the manufacturing account. proft and loss etc like for FRA. does it crop up in the simulation and exam?
Really struggling with this unit.

There is something about seeing them regularly and repeatedly that helps them sink in better. Don't try and memorise them every time you look at them (but by all means do it sometimes) but just notice them a lot. Worked for me, both for GCSE physics and AAT exams!
These are the cards I got as they are really small to carry around and on a keyring:

Some things you just have to do the hard way and you can only learn by continually doing them, learning the layout and why (i.e. P&L and balance sheet - or whatever they're called these days!).
You'll get stuck on quite a few at first, but keep going and going at it, and you'll soon find you can reel them off like nobody's business.
If you've got someone willing to ask you the formulae, its a really good way to learn.
There's looking over and over them and thinking you know them, but actually recalling them when you don't have your piece of paper to help you soon identifies the ones you need to do more work on.
also as soon as you get into the exam, write them all down, you do have 15 minutes reading and it is recommended you use it for reading, but for a minute just write all what you can down, when you come to the question later on, you will have them wrote down already.
worked for me - hope they work for you
