Inhaltsangabe

New fully revised and updated edition of our popular and student-focused guide to passing this unusual examination. We have extensively revised the text to take into account the lessons learned from the latest examination (Piccolo Limited, July 2017), including the new markscheme evidence regarding the importance of background and contract outline points, as well as revisions to the testing of the querying of assumptions. The book also contains some related tips provided by the Case Study examiners at the 2017 ICAEW Tutor Conference.

The new edition further improves our popular and ICAEW prize-winning "Planning & Reminder Sheets", lovingly honed and prepared to keep you focused on mark-scoring points – as used on our July 2017 tuition courses, which achieved a pass rate of 98%.

This book is aimed at both re-sit students and first timers who wish to ensure a pass in this highly unusual examination.

Includes £20 discount voucher against our November 2017 live mock exam pack: 5 realistic mock exams based on the live November 2017 Advance Information, giving you 5 opportunities to practise your timing and technique whilst only reading one set of Advance Information (and the only set of Advance Information which really matters to you). (We are aiming to release the mock pack in October 2017.)

Cracking Case(TM) explains the ACA Simplified "40 Task Approach(TM)" to cracking the ACA Case Study. Organised into 18 Chapters and 5 Appendices, this book will take you through our carefully designed and practical approach to gaining the marks you need to pass. Includes detailed "student eye" views from 2 students who increased their grades by 20 percentage points each between the July 2012 and November 2012 sittings using the 40 Task Approach(TM).

Our unique method is completely focused on the markscheme and unlocks the secrets of a pass through a simplified approach which is radically different from the standard "4 Column Planning Grid" endorsed by many other providers. Successfully used by the July 2014 ICAEW international Case Study prize winner who scored 92% at his first attempt and also by the 2014 ICAEW East Midlands Case Study prize winner who placed first in his region after attending our retake course (having failed first time with another provider). Please also see the numerous other 5 star reviews of this and previous editions as posted on Amazon.co.uk by students we have helped since the first edition of “Cracking Case” was published in 2013.
