Kovsie Advice
The mid-year exams are creeping closer. That means endless hours – or that is what it feels like – of studying, and coffee by the dozens. You are not alone; the academic advising team from the Centre for Teaching and Learning has created a Kovsie Advice to help you during the dark times. 

This edition of Kovsie Advice will help you keep your eye on the prize during this upcoming mid-year exam. 

You can find tips on how to prepare for the exams, how to deal with exam stress, and how to overcome failures. Also be on the lookout for faculty-specific information from your faculty’s Teaching and Learning Office. 

Be inspired to aim for more, and to realise your dreams. 

Enjoy reading!

Honours students from the Centre for Accounting at the University of the Free State (UFS) performed well in part one of the Qualifying Exam (QE1) of the South African Institute for Chartered Accountants (SAICA). The pass mark of UFS students who wrote for the first time was 93%. This is the highest pass mark in the 25-year history of the centre, with 41 out of 44 students passing. The total national average was 54% for all students who wrote and 75% for those who wrote for the first time. Two students, Ms Celesté Henning and Ms Liandi du Preez, passed with distinction and are under the top 40 students in South African.
