    Just found out I failed SA4. Was really disappointed as every said this an easy paper but the pass rate tells you a different story.

    Anyone I am just wonder how to I go about revising for SA4, do I start with pass papers immediately or go through the stuff I was weak at. I am not sure where to.

    Can someone please advice what is the best course of action?

    I'm so sorry to hear that you failed the exam.

    You have lots of time until your next attempt but as you say practise is the key. And tailored practise is even better. So do lots of questions on areas you are weak at, frequently examined areas (e.g. SFO questions, risk, scheme design, incentive exercises, sponsor covenant, investment) and hard areas. Past papers are of course best as they reflect the actual exam but you may also want to do some mocks and get them marked.

    If you can get someone to mark your (past paper) attempts, so you can get some feedback on your strengths and weaknesses.

    I hope this helps
