Some of the syllabus areas covered in the study texts refer to many underlying theories â do students have to know them all in detail?
Many of the references in the study texts are useful to provide breadth, to maintain interest and aid understanding. However, candidates will not have to know or use them all. The advice is to concentrate on the theories quoted in the study guide â there will be no exam questions which specifically require knowledge of theories not specified in the study guide.
