Do Prac exams, find out your weak areas, then revise those. Repeat.

How much of the text book have you done?
Maybe go see a tutor for a few hours.
Or you could attend one of the 8 hour lecture/workshop that companies run.

TSFX and exhanced education are doing these at Melb Uni on Sunday. The enhanced education one is only about $30 from memory, don't quote me though.

Do the text book and summarise the key points. Accounting really isn't a hard subject if you understand the concept, the only confusing part would be balance day adjustment. I strongly suggest you to do the exercises be4 doing the past-year exams, there's really no point on doing the past-year exams without having a clear understanding of Accounting.
It's all over now..

Do as many Practice exams as you can.

Know your theory.
2009: Accounting
2010: English | Methods (CAS) | Specialist Maths | Chemistry | Chinese SL
2011: Bachelor of Commerce/Engineering @ Monash

Yeah definitely go over Chapter 10 and 11 and do as many of those questions as you can.
Then have a comprehensive understanding of the theory. If you know the theory behind the prac and what you are actually doing it makes it a lot easy to do prac.

These notes are also very go regarding theory .... http://notes.vcenotes.com/?step=downloader&download=27.
