    • •Failing to reconcile timing differences between bank and book balances, resulting in unresolved variances
    • •Ignoring the importance of referencing up-to-date regulations, instead relying on outdated or generic procedures

    • •Practice task-based time management: allocate set periods for each assessment activity and check your work for computational accuracy
    • •Use the terminology of the profession (e.g., ‘nominal ledger’, ‘trial balance’, ‘accruals’) to demonstrate technical competence
    • •When using accounting software, narrate your steps clearly to the assessor to evidence underlying understanding, not just procedural speed
