The course content will be comprised of both theoretical concepts and mathematical calculations on financial equations.

Step 3 – Go through the supplemental materials
Once you complete the Textbook of D365, we will immediately take some time to review all the content we have read to help us memorize it. This will help us strengthen our knowledge by revisiting the core concepts again while the knowledge is fresh in our minds. To achieve this task, we will utilize the section review material available in the course search section of the module. To find these resources, navigate as mentioned below.

We highly recommend you keep continuously attempting the quizzes on calculations to make yourself familiar with the hardest questions of the OA.
Step 4 – Attempt the Pre-A
Now it is time to evaluate your knowledge and find out if you are ready to face the final assessment. As we are about to face the Pre-A of D365, make sure you free up your schedule to face it without any distractions. This will allow you to focus on the Pre-A without worrying about external factors that might distract you while you attempt the assessment. This is necessary to get an accurate representation of your knowledge in the coaching guide that will be generated once you complete the Pre-A. So treat the Pre-A as a real exam and do your best..
Once you complete the Pre-A, evaluate your knowledge by using the coaching report that will be generated. You can find this report in the same location where you attempted the Pre-A. This coaching guide will give you a visual representation of your knowledge of the course content, separated into chapters. This will allow you to understand which chapters you lack knowledge in, and it will give you a chance to revisit the content to revise the knowledge. Take this opportunity to clear your doubts and re-attempt the Pre-A once again to achieve a passing score of more than 85%. If you didn’t achieve the passing score, keep repeating the same process of revising the knowledge and attempting the Pre-A until you pass. Once you successfully pass e the Pre-A, you can proceed to the next step.
Step 5 – Ace the OA
Now that you have passed the Pre-A, your next step will be to attempt the OA of D365. If you are competent in your knowledge, schedule the OA at a convenient time and do your best to ace the assessment on the first attempt.
