Who is a Question Based Day for?

Question Based Days are perfect for ACCA students who would benefit from extra feedback and question practice before their real exam. Question Based Days offer students one final chance to review their question attempts with a tutor. Most importantly, they offer the opportunity to pick up marks that could otherwise be lost in the real exam, and spot any areas that your revision efforts should be focused on.

Why do I need a Question Based Day?

In the December 2020 exam sitting, FI students who attempted 3 practice mocks had a 93% chance of passing the real exam. Therefore, ACCA students who complete a timed course exam, mock exam and final mock achieve higher results in the exam compared to those that don’t. Incidentally, whether these students passed or failed their practice exams didn’t make a significant difference to their real exam mark. Simply attempting the mock exams boosted their chances of passing the real exam. This was a boost of up to 40% compared to students who did not attempt any mock exams. Mock exams are included with tuition courses, revision courses and Question Based Days, which is why this is our recommended study route for all ACCA Skills and Strategic Professional level exams. This approach offers the highest chance of a pass and the most practice exam attempts.

What happens on a Question Based Day?

Firstly, students will complete a full mock exam, specially designed for the day to be sat under exam conditions. Students will benefit from having their question attempts marked on the day by one of our expert tutors. The intent is to allow students to consolidate their knowledge by simulating the exam experience.

In the afternoon, students’ marked question attempts will be returned to them along with a result*. Then, the tutor will fully debrief the questions with the group, with direct focus on areas of the paper that students struggled with. Finally, the tutor will suggest helpful hints or new approaches to these questions. This helps students to pick up precious extra marks in the real exam. As with any  FI courses, students will have the opportunity to ask questions on any areas of the syllabus they may find challenging.

*For some lengthier papers, a full result may be returned to the student the same evening.

How much does it cost?
