the cima student

The August 2017 MCS pre-seen materials have landed from CIMA, the case study is based on a company called Aurora and the official pre-seen materials can be found here.

The MCS exam from CIMA combines the knowledge you have learnt from the E2, P2 and F2 objective tests and puts it together in the format of a case study based exam. And the six weeks period beginning now is crucial for students taking the exam in August.

I posted an article earlier this month on the August 2017 case studies with advice on how to handle and be prepared exam day.
