-SA EG ads-Oct 2011.indd 419/08/2011 12:19 Welcome to this special issue of Student Accountant

Essential Guide.

This issue is completely focused on exam-related

information that you, as Fundamentals level students, require. It contains a range of tailored advice and information to help you get prepared for the

December 2011 session.

We include examiner feedback from the

Fundamentals level exams taken in June 2011. This

advice looks at overall performance in Papers F4 to F9, outlining areas where candidates obtained both high and low marks. Reading the examiner feedback together with the past exam questions and answers from the latest exam session can help you identify where students have gone wrong in the past, and how to develop your answers to achieve the best marks possible - it is one of the key resources to use in exam preparation. As well as examiner feedback, this issue contains examinable standards and information relevant to Papers F4, F6 (UK), F7 and F8. Use this information to guide your exam preparation and take note of the areas that you could be examined on. We include essential information on making the most of reading and planning time which is included in all three-hour exams. We also help you understand the intellectual levels of Fundamentals level exams and how to take note of the verbs used in questions. The Noticeboard section includes the exam timetable for December 2011 and exam rules and regulations. We've produced this magazine to be as helpful to you as possible in the lead up to the December 2011 exams. We have also produced two other tailored magazines for students taking Professional level exams and Foundations in Accountancy/Paper F1, F2 and F3 students.

These can be accessed at www2.accaglobal.com/SA

I hope that you nd this magazine useful in

helping you prepare fully for Papers F4 to F9 in

December 2011.
