Here are some of the hints and tips for exam on SAP TERP10 or TERP1e from the lecturer who occasionally makes fun of SAP which makes the lecture worth attending. I will try to give you the essence of four pages of hints. I do not think the lecturer minds me sharing these as he didn’t wish to put his name on these hints.
Manuals: go through the manuals and remove any black pages – there are a dozen if not 200 pages. E.g. remove section headings, take out blank exercise pages… if you have taken out these pages you will find that the manuals halve in size and are much less daunting.
Revision: the exam is entirely based on the textual materials in the manuals so you can forget about audio-visuals and online Flash based demonstrations. Also there are no questions on navigation.
There are two types of questions based either on factual recall or analysis which goes behind it. ERP Basics ask for one or more elements of SAP NetWeaver a.k.a The Fridge: the four elements are easier to remember with PIPA – people, information, process and application.
Other particularly interesting aspect of the exam it marks you for certain way of thinking, once you understand how one module fits with other modules or how elements within that module fit together. Do not ignore linkages and learn how those links take place, after all the course is about ‘Integration of Business Processes!’
There are also questions that expect you to have positive approach towards SAP. Usually there are some questions on formatting and reporting in the system – usually where the manuals specifically go in detail about formatting.
Marks: 80 questions in total that will be split into 300 answers. The exam is taken in exam conditions in a room but it is done online, you do not need to write anything. You can start answering in any order and change your answers as many times as you like. The exam is finished when you click on submit. The result will show immediately whether you passed/failed.
Answers have radio-button and you have to click true or false. There are no penalties for wrong answers so do not leave any unanswered questions. 300 marks is the maximum you get. If there are options to choose three out of four answers true or false, and you marked three of them true and last one as false, you score 4 points (3 for choosing right options and 1 for realising the wrong one.) But here is the thing if you marked all four true you get 3 points i.e. you won’t be penalised for choosing all 4 answers as true.
Another obvious remark is the bigger the section the more stuff to learn the more questions you will get in exam.
Topics: the big marks and the sophisticated questions are around the ‘big five’ – Sales and Distribution, HCM, Financial Accounting, Management Accounting and Enterprise Asset Management.
Hope this was helpful.

thanks this is a lot of help. i'm taking the exam in just a couple of days. have you taken the exam? if so, what preparation helps the most other than just reading the material over and over?
But I guess Procurement Cycle is also a big one, right?
Stupid
