Stay away from thewindows and friends.Make notes while the teacher teaches the class (especially with new concepts),do the example with the teacher and work out the calculations with the teacherwhile he/she is explaining. This will force you to concentrate, you won’t getbored so easily and you will remember the work much better.Get actively involved in the lesson. Ask questions if you don’t understand.Listen critically what the teacher says.Think: “Do I understand what the teacher is saying?”Ask yourself the following: “Can it be true?”‘What does he/she mean?”“Is that the only solution?”Via Afrika Publishers » Accounting Grade 101

If the teacher gives you homework, start doing it so you can ask questions if youdon’t understand.Make sure what you have to do for homework.At home Work through the example that the teacher did with you in the class.Read through your homework to see what is expected from you to do.Do your homework. Write down if there are concepts or part of the work that youdon’t understand that you can ask the teacher to help you with. Don’t give up.Phone a friend who understands the work if you don’t understand something(not to chat, but to help you).2 Studying at home to prepare for a test or examCreate a study environment Find a quiet place for studying.Tool-up the environment with all study needs.Create a work atmosphere – avoid relaxing while working.When to study Best when there are the least competing activities in progress.Best when rest periods are provided.Stop studying when fatigue or lack of concentration occurs.How to study and concentrate Set study goals before you begin for each period of study (number of pages,number of activities, etc.).Build a variety of subjects and interest into your study programme to removeboredom.Plan the length of your study period by the amount of material you have decidedto cover, not by the clock (often the clock is one of the most serious distracters).Don’t try to mix work and play.Via Afrika Publishers » Accounting Grade 102

3 Accounting study tipsGeneral tips It is important that you do your homework every day – don’t copy.See every exercise as part of your preparation for the test/exam.Do your homework in pen and mark in pencil. After marking the exercise inclass, always check your errors. Why did you make the mistake? If you do notunderstand, ask the teacher to help you.Know all the formats! You can’t do any exercise if you do not know the formats.Internal control (auditing) and ethics must be integrated with all the topics.Know the theory and how to apply it to all the topics.Know all the formulas and ratios. Write them on a paper and stick it next to themirror. Learn a few every day so when the test/exam comes, you will know yourformulas and ratios. Know how to apply and interpret the ratios.In a calculation in accounting, always start at 100% - you either have to subtractor add.In the Financial Statements, if a transaction is recorded during the financialyear, work from the end of the financial year. If a transaction is not recorded,work from the beginning of the year.Always work from the known to the unknown.How do you prepare for a test or exam? Drink lots of water while you study. Water provides oxygen for your brain,making it more receptive to concentrate and memorise information.Always get a good night’s sleep before an exam – 8 hours of sleep.Do not start the day before you write the test/exam. You need to go back to yourteacher to ask questions. You can also ask a friend to help you.Go back to all the exercises that you have done on a specific topic. Work throughthe mistakes you have made (pencil corrections). Make sure that you do notmake the same mistake again.Choose an exercise or question from a previous year’s paper and work throughthe exercise/question. If you are not yet confident that you understand the work,do more exercises. If you are confident with a topic, go to the next topic (don’twaste time if you understand something).Via Afrika Publishers » Accounting Grade 103

When you write an exam Have a good breakfast before you go to school.Don’t let anybody ask you questions about the work just before you are going towrite – it might confuse you! Talk to your friends about general things.Stick to the time limits for each question.Read each question carefully. Just do what is expected – if not, you are wastingtime!Hold on to your dreams/ ambitions/ hopes for the future: Picture yourself in asuccessful position- but realise that this will never happen if you do not put in therequired effort and achieve the best possible marks. Dates are very important.Start a topic you feel confident with – you don’t have to start with question 1.Apply your knowledge – the format of the question may be different to whatyou’ve been taught.Show all your calculations.REMEMBER YOUR CALCULATOR!4 Accounting examination conceptsConceptExplanationAnalyseIdentify parts/elements of a concept describe one by one.CalculateFind the exact, correct answer.Comment onTo make a written remark; especially giving an opinion.ComparePoint out similarities AND differences between ideas/points of view.CompleteAdd missing information on the Answer sheet.ContraaccountOpposite account in the General Ledger.DetermineTo find the value/answer to certain givens.
