Examination Tips General strategies for answering multiple choice questions: + Read every word of each question very carefully and make sure you understand exactly what it is asking. Even if you think that the question appears simple or straightforward there may be important information you could easily omit. When faced with a question that seems unfamiliar, re-read it very carefully, Underline or circle the key pieces of information provided. Re-read it again if necessary to make sure you are very clear as to what it is asking and that you are not misinterpreting it. Each question has four options, A, B, Cand D, and only one is the correct answer. Look at all the options very carefully as the differences between them may be very subtle; never stop when you come across an option you think is the one required. Cross out options that you know are incorrect for certain. There may be two options that appear very similar; identify the difference between the two so you can select the correct answer.You have approximately 14 minutes per question. Some questions can be answered in less ti while other questions may require longer because of the reasoning or calculation involved. Do. not spend too long on any one question. Ifa question appears difficult place a mark, such as an asterisk, on your answer sheet alongside) the question number and return to it when you have finished answering all the other questiot Answer every question. Marks are not deducted for incorrect answers. Therefore, it is in your best interest to make an educated guess in instances where you do not know the answer. Never leave a question unanswered. ‘Always ensure that you are shading the correct question number on your answer sheet. It is ver easy to make a mistake, especially if you plan on returning to skipped questions. Some questions may ask which of the options is NOT correct or is INCORRECT. Pay close attention to this because itis easy to fail to see the words NOT or INCORRECT and answer question incorrectly. Some questions may give two or more answers that could be correct and you are asked to deter which is the BEST or MOST LIKELY. You must consider each answer very carefully before making. yur choice because the differences between them may be very subtle. When a question gives three answers numbered I, II, IIT, one or more of these answers may be correct. You will then be given four combinations as options, for example: (A) Tonly — (B) Tand 1 (©) Land forMandIM ~—(D) I, and IT Place a tick by all the answers that you think are correct before you decide on the final correct combination. Do not make any assumptions about your choice of options; just because two answers in succession have been C, it does not mean that the next one cannot be Cas well. Phrases or options may be provided to match scenarios that may relate to more than one question, Place a tick by all answers you think are correct before you decide on the final option for each question. Be Try to leave time at the end of the examination to check over your answers, but never change answer until you have thought about it again very carefully. If your country has already adopted doing CXC® multiple choice questions online, please reme to scroll back to incomplete questions and ensure that you have clicked on the correct answer. Strategies for the CSEC® Principles of Accounts Paper 1: A silent, non-programmable calculator is allowed in the examination. You are required to car your own calculator. Since different brands of calculators have unique features itis advisable to take a calculator you are familiar with. Be careful and accurate when performing calculations, It is very easy to make an error and the ‘may be an incorrect option similar to your calculation. For questions requiring you to perform a calculation, work out the answer before you look at the four options. Do this by writing your working on the question paper. If you do not find your answer in the options, you can then go back and recheck your working for mistakes, Keep track of all units during calculations. The final unit in the result is a good clue if the calculation was done correctly. Some questions are accompanied by diagrams, graphs, table or prose. Read and inspect these carefully and use them to derive the best option for the question. You may make your own sketches to help you answer the questions. viiiSection 1: Accounting as a profession 1.1 Concept, principles and purpose of accounting @ Accounting is (A) recording anything that happens in a business.
