How to Do Well in Your Accountancy Comprehension Test
- Read the rules first: Every rule you need is on screen; check each line against it.
- Work line by line: Count errors carefully rather than estimating.
- Use "Cannot tell" properly: Choose it when the document doesn't settle the statement.
- Pace yourself: You have about half a minute per item.
