Hi Sir,
I hope you are doing great.I am preparing for the AA exam and have three questions inter-connected.
1. If the model answer has not provided the answer we have suggested, would we get credit if the answer is technically correct?
2. I rarely meet the model answer suggested by the examiner. Will I be provided full marks for the particular requirement even if the answer I provide does not corroborate with the model answer?
2. If we write the knowledge-based requirements in our own words and depart from the book definition, would I be penalized?
Thank you.

Please see my sticky post at the top of this forum https://opentuition.com/forum/acca-forums/acca-aa-audit-and-assurance-forums (it’s about 7th post down – ALL my posts here are essential reading):
“How to score marks in AA – essential guidance” gives invaluable insights into what will be credited in the exam.
