  Exam format
  The examination is a three-hour closed book examination, with 15 additional minutes allowed at the start of the exam for reading and planning. The exam will be entirely discursive with questions utilizing various scenarios.
  The exam will contain two sections. Section A will contain Question 1, which will be worth a total of 50 marks and which will be compulsory. It will include several distinct tasks (listed as (a), (b), (c), etc) and will sample the syllabus quite broadly. Question 1 might contain elements of governance, risk, internal control, and will include some aspect of ethics.
  One of the features of the Professional level exam paper is the awarding of ‘professional marks’。 These are marks which certain parts of the answer are presented. / They will usually be awarded in Section A (the compulsory of the exam paper) and will total 4 to 6 marks. / it may be, for example, that one requirement asks you to present your answer in the form of say, a letter, a presentation, a memo, a report, briefing notes, or similar. / Some marks may be awarded for the form of answer in addition to the content of the answer. This might be for the structure, content, style and layout, or the logical floe of arguments in your answer. / You should assume that if the question asks for a specific format of answer in your answer that some marks may be awarded for an effective presentation of that format.
  Section B will contain three questions (Question 2, 3 and 4) and students will be invited to attempt two from the three questions set. Each question in Section B will, accordingly, be worth a total of 25 marks. / In contrast to Question 1, it is likely that the questions in Section will explore one part of the syllabus (governance, risk, internal control or ethics) in a little more depth. / Students should not assume, however, that each question in Section 2 will examine only one part of the syllabus. It is more likely that each will contain an emphasis on one part of the syllabus, while including content from other parts as well. / All of the three questions in Section B will be based on a short scenario.

  Exam techniques
  1.回答問題的時間控制(Time management)
  嚴格控制考試時回答每道問題的時間??荚嚂r間180分鐘,滿分100分,應該按照1.8分
  鐘/分的標準來安排回答問題的時間分布,因此每道問題的回答時間最多不能超過其分值*1.8,例如一道10分的題目,最多花費18分鐘來進行回答即可。因為遵循思維和考試的規(guī)律,在回答問題最開始的時候總是能將大部分知道的答案都回答出來,越到后面越不熟悉,回答的得分率也將下降。
  2.按順序答題(rules of the exam)
  雖然ACCA可以接受不按照先后順序的答題方式,但仍然建議考生嚴格遵守順序答題這樣一個潛在的考試規(guī)律。首先,如果沒有按照順序答題,先選擇自己比較擅長的題目來回答,容易回答太多而浪費時間;其次,不按順序答題容易顯示對題目總體把握的不自信,給考官造成不好的*9印象,影響后面的得分。(如果一開始就回答Q2,仿佛在對考官說:Dear marker, please fail me!)
  3.格式安排 (exam format)
  回答每個題目時都要注意分段和分點,按照得分標準(1分或2分/Key Point)估計要回答幾個Key Point,標明每個Key Point的序號,暗示考官你對題目的把握程度良好。回答完每個段落都空1-2行,回答完整個問題后請到新的頁面從新開始下一題的回答。
  4.理論聯系實際 (apply principle to practice)
  從淺層來說,要提及題目中的公司名稱,人物名稱、職務及相關事件。從深層來說,要注意題目中所給出的案例和理論知識之間的聯系和異同。判斷按照以下哪種情況回答問題:
 ?。?) 可以完全按照理論知識回答問題,注意回答的全面性
  (2) 題目中所述情況與理論知識存在差異或相反情況,注意把握答題的角度和回答的方式(如在發(fā)展中國家實施公司治理的方式,是否要嚴格按照SOX法案的相關要求執(zhí)行)
 ?。?) 題目中只敘述了理論知識的某一個方面,或者問題中要求你站在某一個單獨的立場上回答問題,注意嚴格遵循題設要求的回答問題的立場。
  5.合理安排答題的分點和詳略程度 (mark allocation)
  分數→時間→答題量(詳略程度及分點)
  Marks→Time used→Answer
  根據分數來判斷考官要求的答題量和詳略程度,而不是根據你對知識點掌握的情況來決定?;旧峡挤侄际前凑?-2分/key point來分布的,比如關于定義和概念的問題,如果得分標準是1分/key point,那么將定義表述出來能得0.5分,對定義進行進一步的解釋和說明又能得0.5分,若僅僅將背誦和記憶下來的定義默寫在答卷上,而不做任何進一步的解釋,不但失去一半的分數,而且容易讓考官認為你并沒有真正的理解和掌握該知識點,給后面的評分造成不良影響。
  6.專業(yè)分數 (professional marks)
  一般出現在Section A中,占4-6分的分值。要求考生按照一定的格式和語氣來寫一些專業(yè)的公文,其中格式占1-2分,語氣和用詞等占2-4分,考生在回答該問題時,要注意以下三點:
  (1)公文的使用目的。如果是一個會議演講稿,至少要能順暢的讀出來,并且易于聽眾能當場明白和理解;如果是報告或信件,要注意發(fā)件人和收件人的身份、他們之間的相互關系等,上下級之間、企業(yè)管理者與股東及其他利益相關者之間的信息傳遞流向不同,決定了語氣和用詞的差異。
 ?。?)要有明確的觀點和結論,不能出現模棱兩可,正反兩方面都以相同的比例進行表述而沒有明確的觀點態(tài)度這種回答方式。報告、信件、演講稿等專業(yè)公文都有較強的目的性,因此回答該類問題時也必須形成確定的觀點和結論。但也要把握觀點偏向的程度,不能太絕對,一般用7+3、8+2或9+1的觀點權重分布來組織公文結構。
 ?。?)注意不同公文的格式要求:

  ·A concluding paragraph, re-emphasizing the purpose of the letter;
  ·If it is a business letter, addressed formally (Dear Sir), it should be signed Yours Faithfully or Yours sincerely

  7.完成全部要求的答題,包括一個必答題和兩個選答題(survival, do not leave any part blank)
  不要在回答中出現完全空白的地方。在選答題的選擇過程中必須慎重,完整的瀏覽全部選答題后,按照分值的分布來衡量你的選擇,千萬不要因為很小的分值就錯選了你并不熟悉的大題,也千萬不要三個選答題都回答,考官只會計兩道題的分數。在必答題中如果出現完全不會的內容,也要按照自己的理解,結合案例中的情況介紹進行一些表述,只要沒有原則性錯誤,考官都會酌情給分。在涉及計算的題目中,若計算的答案錯誤,但計算方法和相應的分析正確,考官也會給分。
  8.確定問題中詞語表述的含義和要求考生對知識點掌握的程度(intellectual levels)
  考官要求對你知識點的掌握程度分為以下三個級別:
  LevelⅠ: Knowledge and comprehension
  LevelⅡ: Application and analysis
  LevelⅢ: Synthesis and *uation
  針對問題的詢問方式,可以將需要回答的內容作如下分類:
  Level
  Verb
  Instruction
  1
  Define
  Give the meaning of
  Explain
  Make clear
  Identify
  Recognize or select
  Describe
  Give the key features
  2
  Contrast
  Explain two different position, highlighting differences between them
  Analyse
  Give reasons for the current situation or what has happened
