Ethical and Professional Standards has no formulas, so it has no sheet. The sheets cover the 2026 and 2027 curricula: formulas marked “2026 only” leave the curriculum for exams from February 2027, and those marked “New in 2027” join it; see what changed in 2027.
What is on each sheet
- Key formulas. The formulas each topic leans on most, explained on its page here.
- Every formula, explained. Each module in the CheapMocks Academy ends with its formula sheet: what each symbol means, what the result tells you and how the exam asks about it. The free trial includes the Academy.
- Exam tips. The mistake candidates make most often with each formula, or the fastest way to get it right on the BA II Plus.
- A lesson for every formula. Each entry links to the CheapMocks Academy lesson that teaches it with worked examples.
- The PDFs. Every formula of a topic at a glance, then each one explained, ready to print. They come with a subscription or a pass.
How to learn the formulas
- Learn what each input means, not just the letters. Most wrong answers use the right formula with one wrong input.
- Practise each formula on your calculator until the keystrokes are automatic; speed matters as much as accuracy.
- Watch the units: decimals versus percentages, periodic versus annual rates, and days versus years.
- Test yourself with timed questions. Recognising which formula a question needs is half the work.
- Let flashcards do the memorising. Short daily reviews keep a formula ready long after you first learned it.
