Unit 4 Revision
« on: August 12, 2010, 08:35:46 pm »

Hey guys!
I've finished the Accounting course and I was wondering what I should do for revision for the end-of-year exam.
So far I've completed:

Cambridge Textbook
Unit 4 Checkpoints  :-[ (the questions in this were fail i.e. answers and questions were wrong, so were templates)
Insight Exam 2 (second half of the book was epic fail - old study design!)
Neap Exam 2
Exambusters
A+ Accounting Exam 2

Just go all out on exams? Or focus on writing my own notes on tricky theory questions?
People who've done accounting before please respond!
Thanks in advance,
Sam ;)

GOOD JOB!... I'm yet to finish the course. :P

LOL. Although you did say "People who've done accounting before please respond!" I thought I'd jump in, since no one really replied. :P

I'd try to find a balance between doing PRAC exams and making your own notes (do a bit of both!). I'd try doing a variation of exams... from different companies (i.e. NEAP, TSSM - although there may be mistakes in this one, VCAA etc). This helps you a lot as you are exposed to the different type of questions - [theory + practical] and thus, when it comes to doing the actual exam, you won't know a question which you have already seen before. HAVE you done any exams under timed conditions yet?... this also helps when it comes to the real exam.

I'd also make notes on the tricker theory questions (like you said)... then memorises the so-called "template" answers! and summarises key areas of which you found the most difficult. I find that making notes helps you greatly as you are puting information into your own words and thus, are able to understand the concepts in greater depth.

Hope this helps. :)

I kinda don't bother doing exams under time conditions any more. I always finish within an hour, so I am more focused on answering the theory questions correctly. I've made a list of all the practice exams I have, and I'm hopefully gonna be able to finish them. I'm starting to record all my practice exam results. Let me know if anyone wants any of the ones I have.

COULD you post up Insight 2010, Neap 2010, Neap 2009 and IARTV 2008 Unit 4 Exams... if you have online copies of them? :P

*Edit: COULD you just post all the exams under one file/folder (i.e. RAR file or something.)

Thanks. :)

i think it would be much easier if you posted it in a rar file for everyone to access and uploaded it onto some third party site, rather than taking personal requests

I've been doing a few exams, and I noticed almost all of them have a question to do with the 'Lower of Cost or NRV' rule and Conservatism/Relevance. I'm guessing it'll be on this years exam as well.
