Hi sir
I was reading this thread on professional skepticism by you
https://opentuition.com/topic/specimen-2-question-2b-scepticism-questioning/
it is indeed helpful. But in answering the question which tone should we adopt. most said to adopt negative tone like
– Use words like ‘I disagree’, ‘its seems incorrect’, ‘its not clear’ or ‘should be further investigated’
but what I feel in standard answer is not like that.
I was doing sep 2018 cooled question 2 of project initiation document in which examiner just mention what is missing and what should be included. it is sufficient to present scepticism?
Scepticism can be expressed in many ways, depending on the question.
For example, you might be presented with n NPV calculation and asked to review it and skepticism could be a matter of saying more information/justification is needed about the sales figures or skepticism could be saying that the NPV is wrong because it includes depreciation.
So all of your phrases ” ‘I disagree’, ‘its seems incorrect’, ‘its not clear’ or ‘should be further investigated’” could be used. Similarly stating that some aspects of the problem seem not to have been considered at all, or saying that some information is missing, is also showing scepticism.
