Most important: average 18 minutes/vignette. Should not regret later that you spent too much time on a calculation u didnt get. All the best.
Watch out for half period earnings or mid-year acquisitions. i.e. 6 months of the income statement This questions has screwed me twice. Once for option expense and the other time for not calculating the # new shares issued correctly. Be careful
Fill in the correct candidate number. No use giving your passing score to someone else.

When you’re stuck on a problem and you have time, write down all the formulas related to the problem. Sometimes you can find some derivation that can solve the problem. Easier when you see it.
I’m a big believer on this!!! NICE CALL. Especially when finding relationships in FSA i just start putting formulas that are relevant to anything on the question and eventually it pops out
Keep marking your answers in the booklet in addition to your answer sheet especially if you jump from vignette to vignette. It might be a lifesaver if you find yourself marking wrong numbers at the end of the test.
