@ahugemistake I re-wrote all the reports in a word doc by putting them in a table format. The left side had the actual text and the right had my notes of what the text included in a summarized version. I read these several times and especially right before my exam. I'd re-write all the important reports and the engagement letter, management rep letter, etc. This will be helpful to you for the MCQs. For the SIMS you can use the A/L to help you and you'll find the information word for word. My only advice, (wish I had done this prior to the exam), make sure you know where you can find all the reports, letters, etc. in the A/L/ It'll help you find them faster come exam day.
Here's a sample of an unmodified report…sorry the table format is gone but hopefully you get the idea.
