The team of Finntutors was a MESSIAH for me because although I had the knowledge required for the OCS exam but I didn't had the direction as to how to apply and represent that knowledge in the case study exam which was duly met by the FANTASTIC mock exams taken by the FINNTUTORS.
Thank you so much Finntutors for your unparalleled mock exams and guidance.
Sonal Lasrado
Finntutors was an incredible place to start my CIMA journey, their services and attention towards my progress made it easy to advance towards the goals I'd set for myself. Rest assured the tools they provide coupled with your hard work is a recipe for success. It was due to their personalised assistance and support throughout that I managed to clear my OCS in the first attempt!
Teddy Odibo
Thanks to Dev and the team, I was able to pass my OCS first time in only 3 weeks. finntutors is different from other providers due to their very personalised services. I even got a message to check my results :)

I went to Finntutors following struggling to learn for my case study. I had exemptions for my 3 objective tests and was struggling condense the workload down. Dev provided me with the focused content which allowed me to study for the case study in a shorter time period. This along with the personal support with exam technique enabled me to comfortably pass the operational case study

Finntutors is amazing!Dev and your team i cant thank you enough. I had failed the OCS thrice but that all changed when i studied with FINNTUTORS. Their materials are easy to understand, mocks are marked in a timely manner and feedback is sent highlighting areas of improvement.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND FINNTUTORS
Nteboheleng Busa
After so many attempts, I have passed Operational case study on the 4th attempt!!!! all credit to the Finntutors Academy for their support and study materials!!!!!!
I was close to giving up on the 3rd attempt, then I thought, I have already wasted a lot of my time pursuing this, why not give it my last shot and let go if I still don't pass afterwards. I have been studying for OCS without the tuition provider for the past 3 sitting that I failed, and I could not understand why I was not performing well. Then i decided to enroll with Finntutors Academy and they were able to show where my weaknesses were and through the mock practices they provided, I was able to overcome all of my weaknesses and passed.
I am very grateful to you Finntutors, I wouldn't have been able to make it without you guys.!!!
Thank you so much.
Thomas Botha
If it weren’t for Finntutors I would not have passed my CIMA OCS.
After I failed my first attempt I reached out to Finntutors and enrolled in the Full Case Study pack. The one major thing that Finntutors helped me with was exam technique through Mock Exam writing.
Thank you Devansh! I will stick with you throught the journey ahead.
