Please tell me whether it is possible to read the open tuition lecture note only and pass the exam?
You need to read the notes, listen to the lectures and, very importantly, practice questions.
hello sir
in this chapter types of review engagements haven’t been mentioned. whereas in text that topic is been given greater importance. And its been even tested in december 2009 and june 2012
I’m happy with this. The 2012 question you refer to gave three marks for comparing the level of assurance between audits and other review engagements. We mention in our text the two types of assurance (positive and negative) and give examples of where positive assuramce is not appropriate.
It is important to:
Read the text
Listen to the lectures
Do past questions
All are necessary to prepare you well for the exam; none will stand on its own.
alright . thanks sir. i will also refer the text along with the lectures.
I just downloade F8 Notes but it is not specific whether its UK variant or Int. Please guide.
There are no variants now.
Hi, are these lectures valid for March 2016 exams? thanks!
Yes. Fine for March 2016
Are those slides in the video is available for download?
No. But the slides are summaries of the lecture notes.
These lectures and notes are the best,thanks.
Thanks very much.
thanks
Hiiii,
Thank you for the precious notes and videos, Could you please tell me how to download these videos?
You cannot download the videos. They have to be watched on-line.
Hello,
I used to watch the videos until a week ago. Now I do not seem to be able to watch them online. I thought it is relayed to my Google version, but I already tried updating my Google chrome; did not work. Also, I have tried watching the vids in a defferent (company) laptop; still could not manage to. Could you please provide any support or advice.
Many Thanks in advance!
sorry to hear you have problems, but it must be at your end. nothing has changed on the site. try another browser.. Maybe it’s the firewall. see if TOR browser works
as it bypasses any firewalls.
I would like to thanks the open tuition team for all their notes and lectures. I have completed F8 in June 2015 only by using the notes provided and the mock exams
Thank you lecturer for this video it is well done. However, i want to know when an auditor can use a positive or negative assurance?
For audits it is always positive assurance.
If asked to give some assurance about a cash flow forecast, onlt a fool would say it is correct ie a positive assurance: how could the auditor reliably foretell the future? A negative assurance would then be given ie the forecast looks reasonable.
there are no more powerpoints
You should use notes with the lectures
Hi
https://opentuition.com/acca/f8/acca-f8-lectures/
There are 29 chapter lectures here and we can see several topic lectures below them.What are they? are they included in first 29 chapter lectures?
Thx in advance
The whole syllabus is covered in the 29 lectures.
The live lectures were produced some years ago as a class was being taught. Those are not as complete as the 29 but we kept them because they offer an additional resource.
I am unable to watch. It will be appreciate to put videos in links as there are lot of students unable to watch it. Thank you
Thank you very much for the lecture:)
Hi

Lectures cannot be downloaded.
Hi I use these lectures as a very important part of my studies and now they wont play….is it because of vimeo???????????? I need help.im using an ipad
Hi, could you tell me what were other forms of assurance? Thanks
Eg assurance on a cash flow forecast or assurance on the extent of fraud.
These are not examined at F8.
