HOW TO PASS ICAEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING & REPORTING (FAR) ACA EXAM
Hi Luke, I couldn’t find your notes for your CR exam on the link provided. Can I get them from somewhere else? Thanks
Thank you ! I watch all your video on the exam ! They really have helped me
Hi Luke! Just wanted to thank you for all the effort you put into these videos. Before every exam, I made sure I watched your "How to pass" videos; they just calmed me and gave me confidence. Off to the last one!
Just passed my Corporate reporting exam. I watched this video in Feburay 2022, the time I was seriously struggling on FAR exam and started to consider I might not be the material. Thanks Luke for sharing your expirences and your view. It's really helpful.

I stumbled across your page in April 2022 as I began my ACA training, I'm now here for CR at the advanced stage and it feels like yesterday I was just here watching your certificate level videos. Thanks for all your tips, its almost over. Can't believe it
got 50 on this exam last week with about 4 hours of revision. It is most certainly not worth the stress. But life can be unpredictable.
Encrypt royce@james?21#quest#i#on
where did u take your classes from?? what was your qualification when enrolled?
can I sit Case study exam after completing the 2 advanced level exams or do I have to wait to be in the final year of my contact ?
I think you need to be in the final year of your contract.
Can I take my own A4 size clean papers and also calculator to the accounting exam of ACA. Because in my last 3 exams of ACA i was given papers by the exam center on which i could not write properly with the pen. Please advise. Can i request the exam center to use my own clean papers.
Can i take my own srap papers clean papers. Because in my last 3 exams i was given papers on which i could not write with the pen properly
Luke, How much you scored in law?
I passed my law exam today in 1st attempt with 62 marks. It was tough though. I used ICAEW workbook and questions bank prepared by BPP. I passed by self study. But I watched ACCA law uk tutorials. I revised questions bank 3 times each chapter.
Got FAR in June, thanks for this
same, good luck!
@4gn3t do you have FAR or FM video courses. I'll really appreciate if you would share with me.
Thanks for your advice. I will be sitting BST this month. What would be your advice in terms of the order of sitting the advanced level. I sat FAR quite a while ago (AA was my first professional exam, FAR was my second), BST is my last. I am aware that that there is some overlap between CR and SBM. Bearing in mind that I am siting BST now, do you think SBM as my first advanced exam will be the better choice? Many thanks for your time
I passed assurance exam with 62 marks in 1st attempt by self study only from icaew text book and questions bank.
Came back to ask - where are you now?
Sitting BPB next week and in full panic mode so thought I would check this out just in case it might be helpful. Sounds like a very similar exam in terms of format and your video was really useful
I think the cfa has killed bro 😭
omg i came here after 3 years to randomly check up on him what happened 😭😭
How can I get question bank free please tell me?
5:17 Guys, he's very right. I answered 20/28 multiple choice (not all correct tho) and almost hit the minimum score. Fortunately it's still a progress test. Won't let it happen again on the mock and final exam.
Do they ask the same case study they released 6 weeks ago as an AI ? I am sitting for this exam for the first time so please don't mind me.
hi my exam is on november 6th so like 3 weeks from now and i’m yet to go through the question bank/mocks. i also have assurance on the same day, what’s your best advice?
i think pro formas are given to us now
Sir as per site. 50% pass
You’re amazing thank you so much for this video ❤
Great video. Just wondering if the exams are online or in person?
🇧🇩
That was a very nice and desirable video about the course. Fingers crossed
I'm struggling with studying for BST. I have a relatively good understanding of the models and I understand all of the material but when it comes to putting pen to paper I don't know what to write. Any tips?
Also, is it a case of just working through the question bank? Unsure if that is as useful as the other professional level exams
Hey I brought the ACA master videos they're great with helping you get marks
Hey mate did you not used to study for the CFA? I remember you had videos on this. Did you change direction ?
definitely the worst exam so far, the actual content is the most difficult and with it being multiple choice there’s not really any way to apply your knowledge you either know it or you don’t. Got my resit next week and still isn’t looking good.
You can do it! Hope it went well!
did you pass it?
@@vashiwoods5732 i did, now i’m on TC and BPT which are probably the two worst things i’ve ever had the misfortune of looking at
what happened
Just took the FM exam today and I am stressed about my performance. It wasn't exceptionally hard but I made some mistakes in calculations when I compared results after the exam. Also the theory questions were focused on topics I didn't focus on too much during studying. I did my best to show all my working. I hope it is good enough for a pass.
anyone here the night before the exam shitting themselves?
Come back Luke
Thank you for the advice ❤
Thank you for this video! I have my exam in the 27th I’m so nervous as I had it in December and failed (even though I done the QB twice over and LFQ) but the point where you said “understand the underlying concepts”is what I’m struggling with. The exam questions were not similar at all for the MCQ! They worded it so differently. So Guys don’t relay on thinking it will be similar 😩 it’s so hard but I’m going to have to keep pushing till then
Hi, I had my accounting exam yesterday. Not sure who your tuition provider is but if it's Kaplan I would strongly recommend watching the mock exam debrief videos for the Big Question. Really helped me formulate a strategy that was calm and collected as opposed to rushing about putting in bits of info provided for the adjustments. Also if you follow the steps from those videos you easily pass the biq question just by doing the basics. I agree with the wording of the Q's being different to the QB, my best advice would be to give yourself 1 hour for the multiple choice (2.5 minutes for each question) just so you've got the time to properly read the question. In terms of the underlying concepts, if you get a solid grasp on your T accounts that should help simplify things as it helps to break down the information in the question. Time apportioning costs was featured heavily in my exam, so I'd swot up on that as well. Hope this helps for the 27th !
@@robn846 where do you find the mock exam debrief?
@@5k556 It's after the Kaplan mock, on their learning platform. So if you study with Kaplan should be able to find it easily enough. If not though-all it says is for the Big Questions just go down the boxes in the order they're presented to you. That way alone is enough to pass the question and puts you in a solid place to do well on it.
@@robn846 wow thanks for the help. What did you get in the exam and did you have an accounting background? And when did you take it?
@@5k556 No worries ! I didn't have a background as such, but I had worked at my firm for about a year before doing the course and the exam. I took it in March, and got 77. Paper I got was quite nice, i got a standard set of financial statements for my scenario. I would strongly recommend not neglecting cash flow though-4 people on my course (3 from the same practice) got one, so it seems like they're pretty common
3 days left - pray for me Luke
What is your Instagram Luke
GREAT, CONGRAT JAMES!
Brother, could you recommend some institutions in England where I can enroll for ACA
Hey, I was exempt from Accounting/MI at certificate level, I'm about to start my FM/TC studies. Do you think it would be worth borrowing my colleagues MI folder to look over some content before I start my FM study or are they not really correlated? :)
Only the NPV section of MI is really relevant to FM. You will probably have a refresher module covering it at the start of your FM course. The rest of the FM exam is new content so you shouldn't be too far behind anyone else!
@@samtomkinson2388 perfect , Thankyou so much!
Where do we get past paper questions? Also do you have any tips for someone who has a non-accounting degree? Thanks James great video.
Principle of taxations is not easy at all, i just failed p.o.t yesterday, i felt quite sad
don’t worry, i’m sure you’ll get it next time!!

Just wanted to say thanks. I watched your videos for every ACA exam and recently exam qualified with first time passes. Your practical advice for each paper definitely helped ease some of my anxiety sitting them!
Help me Luke. Could you give me past paper and mark plan of auditing and assurance of 2021,2022, please. I don't have enough money to become the membership now but I really want these materials to revision for Big 4 test in March 2023. Thank you
