Time to cut up your textbook?

September 2024

Is it time that you cut up your accountancy textbook? Well, accountancy exam guru James Perry says the answer is definitely yes, and his tip went viral in Ireland.

He explained that you need to:

  • Get out your textbook.
  • Cut off the spine.
  • Hole punch the pages (much neater if done in a publisher/ printer/stationery shop.
  • File in a Lever Arch file.

Once in the file you can add handwritten notes to the relevant sections/chapters, along with exam- style questions, past papers and examiner comments.

You then have a comprehensive file system all nicely organised, with everything side-by-side.

Perry feels that this will stop you constantly flicking between pages and looking for information filed elsewhere.

He said; “Adapt this approach in your revision and question phase and watch the efficiency of your studies skyrocket.”
