Hello!
I’m Justyna
And I am on a mission to help at least 1 million of students
pass their computer-based CIMA exams.
Where did the idea come from?
It all started with an idea and passion to make CIMA studies easier.
I wanted to succeed but CIMA struggle was real.
Early in 2015, after the CIMA syllabus has changed, I signed up for a F3 online course. I quickly realised, that the most efficient study method for me is to follow the course, listen to the recordings and do as many practice questions as I could after I've completed each exam syllabus part. Shortly, I have finished all the tests the course has provided. I even bought another book with yet another 200 questions and have done them too. And then… I failed.
Not a nice feeling, especially when you hardly ever fail, but the most important is to learn from our shortcomings. So I sat down and made a schedule. The only problem was that the practice questions & tests I had available, I kind of remembered the answers, so I needed more resources. I couldn't find much more quality questions with good educative answers. I believe in learning by doing. I study the most by practicing the questions and reading the explanation why A is the correct answer and why B, C and D is not. I know it adds value to students.
So at that time I have decided to provide that value to other CIMA students. I used all the available resources. Due to my audit and controls work in a big international FMCG company, I traveled all around the world. I met a lot of finance professionals. With some of them we bonded, they were also studying for CIMA, they were great at what they did and they were even better at explaining to me why and how they did that. They had a passion for teaching, for sharing the knowledge. So it was a no-brainer to contact them and ask for support in the Practice Tests Academy. Apparently I am a good motivator, as most of them signed up.
I have also reached out to my CIMA college, to the teachers I've been in contact with while taking the classes. I have also reached out to all the students with whom I communicated over the years on different CIMA forums. Few people were really enthusiastic about my idea, but that was enough to get us started. Quality takes time, so we cannot provide to you all the papers at once. We will be gradually adding more papers to our portfolio. Thanks for your understanding and we do believe you will have a positive experience with our tools.
I decided I will help 1 million students.
