    Is it noticeable that this topic is less frequently examined over time?

    It is an area which is rarer nowadays, so I would be interested to hear what others are thinking.
     
  2. M&A was very frequently examined in 2005-2008, almost every paper, but had been rarely tested since.

    - Expect a big question on any chapter and have no weaknesses - given there are few questions worth many marks it is simply too risky to have any weaknesses, for example analysis of surplus has rarely been tested, but it did in my exam for 44 marks!
    - Topics on M&A test often test other things too - eg investment, funding, covenant - so be on the look out for these to help generate ideas.
