The TCS method

Three steps.
One repeatable
exam process.

Each mock is more than a test. It becomes a structured cycle that improves your commercial judgement and the way you communicate recommendations.

What is the CIMA Strategic Case Study exam?

SCS is the final case study exam in the CIMA/CGMA Professional Qualification. It tests board-level judgement, strategic analysis and your ability to make clear, commercially justified recommendations using the pre-seen and unseen tasks.

How is SCS different from MCS?

SCS moves from management-level decisions to strategic, board-level judgement. Strong answers evaluate long-term value, risk, governance and strategic options while applying the pre-seen throughout.

What does the TCS SCS course include?

The SCS course includes pre-seen guidance, seven exam-standard mocks covering 60+ sub-tasks, suggested answers and structured study plans. Premium students also receive answer plans, 20+ mock-aligned masterclasses, replica-platform practice and tutor feedback.

Do you provide an SCS study plan?

Yes. Enter your exam date in the free public SCS planner to compare weekly Essential and Premium study plans covering seven mocks, with two rest days before your exam. Paid-course students can use the interactive study plan tool in their dashboard to save completion progress.

Are the mocks written in the style of the real CIMA exam?

Yes. Seven exam-standard mocks cover 60+ pre-seen specific sub-tasks across the key SCS syllabus areas, helping reduce knowledge gaps and build realistic exam technique.

Do you cover the pre-seen?

Yes. The course includes pre-seen analysis videos, an annotated pre-seen, industry and financial analysis, likely issues and an SCS familiarisation kit.

Do you offer a pass guarantee for SCS?

Yes, with the Premium Course. Next-sitting support is provided in line with the current TCS Pass Guarantee terms.

Can I use the course if I came through FLP, Gateway or C-Suite?

Yes. The Premium Course builds applied P3, E3 and F3 understanding through masterclasses and answer plans aligned to each mock rather than teaching theory in isolation.

How long can I access the course?

Essential and Premium access lasts for the relevant exam window. For example, a May/August course remains available until the August SCS exams are completed.
