CIMA released the pre-seen materials for the upcoming MCS exam in May 2017 this week and this gives students the chances to prepare themselves to pass the exam first time.

The MCS exam combines the theory you have learnt from the E2, P2 and F2 objective tests and pulls it together in the form of a practical case study.

The MCS exam is challenging given the depth of the knowledge and skills required to pass but they are much more interesting from a students point of view.

Remember! Your role in this exam is that of Financial Manager – undertstanding your role within the company is important – you can read more it on a blog post I wrote here.

You can find the official pre-seen materials from CIMA here.

Likewise, I posted an article earlier this month with some general advice on the case study exams for all levels for the May 2017 sitting here.

I’d also recommend looking at the CIMA connect site for the MCS exam to find other students discussion and practical advice from CIMA.
