Notes are downloadable ZIP files per subject. Within each module, you will receive comprehensive and up-to-date notes & critical files, several years of past exam papers, past online quizzes, and useful templates (e.g. for TAX you will get a tax rec template, for FIN you will get all standard journal templates etc), current CSG, useful / masterclass / other resources and files. For many students, these templates are the difference between a pass and a fail.
Some of our students only purchase the notes and this is enough for them, but we would recommend trying out our exam prep courses as students have found these videos to be very helpful in getting a much-improved score in their final exam.

Courses are online video courses for each subject. Within each prep course you will get:
CSG video walkthroughs, explaining every single topic in an easy-to-understand way.
Past exam walkthroughs, showing you how to approach and answer past exam questions using the templates (provided), including tips to get a 100% mark.
Online quiz help.
The exam prep course has one or 2 download files at most. So if you want all the downloadable products (exams, templates, notes, quiz answers, etc) you need to also purchase the CA notes.
Courses are hosted on the Merit Training website, and you access them directly from your account after purchase.
Notes are a separate product. These are downloadable ZIP files that are sent to your email.
The Exam Prep ALL gives you access to all courses at a discounted rate. Instead of purchasing courses individually, you can get the entire collection for the price of just a few, resulting in significant savings.
