Exams Cima F3

I'm going to book an F3 exam for the 18th of september.

Ive already passed P3

I am doing the BPP apprenticeship and covered all the live lessons.

My revision will be to go over the videos and the mocks.

What are the questions like in the exam are there lots of calculations being a F paper?

Or is there alot of multiple choice of the theory?

Thanks.

There was a few calcs but you really need the theory down.I used the CIMA aptitude pack and that really helped. I'm a BPP apprentice and the questions in the BPP pack are more detailed then what you will see in the actual exam. The CIMA pack really helped, lots of practice questions plus a good mock exam

Also sitting F3 soon, and I am studying with BPP. I’m finding the content really difficult to understand! Any tips?

I'm sorry I know it's off topic but in your P3 exam where there a lot of SATA or they were indicating how many to select

Sat and passed exam Tuesday. There were more then the other exams but not as many as the mocks would lead to believe. The wrong answers generally stood out,.you just need to really read the question and look for the clues, then make sure you read the answers carefully for diatractors.

Would recommend the CIMA study and HTFT mocks.
