In this episode, I’m joined by one of my brilliant former students turned chief mock corrector, Caron Coffey. Caron sat ATX with me back in December 2022 and has been an essential part of my teaching team ever since. Not only does she have a passion for tax (yes, really!), but she’s also deeply committed to helping our students pass—and she doesn't miss a thing.

We chat about:

• Why mock exams are non-negotiable if you want to pass
• Common mistakes students make in mocks—and how to avoid them
• How good layout and clear structure can win you marks
• What exam technique really looks like under pressure
• Caron’s own ACCA journey (including sitting ATX and AAA at the same time!)
• How finding a study buddy can keep you going (shoutout to Grace!)

If you're tempted to skip a mock because “you’d rather be studying,” this one’s especially for you.
