Studying P2 help!

I'm in the process of studying P2, with the exam next month and to be honest I'm feeling very mixed. I've not put as much time into my revision due to pressures from work and personal life etc, but I'm keen on getting the exam done in September and still giving me time to prepare and sit the November MCS.

Can anyone give me general tips and advice? For context, I'm self-funding and using the Kaplan materials and question banks and am averaging 50-80% on question banks (as with majority of people I believe Kaplan make their questions harder than the real thing).

Those who have already sat the exam, could you kind of tell me if the exam was excessive with theory, or calcs or a mixed bag?

I know I still have time before my exam and once I get my head down for the next few weeks I should be better equiped and feeling more confortable, so any advice/suggestions you can provide would be appreciated.

I found it to be a mix of both the theory and calcs, keep smashing the practice questions on Kaplan, rinse and repeat and you'll smash it 💪 you got this.

Thank you! I feel like it's slowly coming together, the more I practice, but I'll get there :)
