    Just wanted to say “Thank You” to Ken Garrett for his lectures and great practical examples throughout the course.

    Now we have to wait for the results

    One does not get an instant result as one has also open questions that require human marking (Section B/C questions).

    Advantage is that I am faster with the keyboard than with pen &paper. The examiner will have easier time to read/mark my answers too.

    I ranked Shakes last, too. This product had the least contribution regarding the limiting factor.
    Answering the follow-up question was funny, hence only 4400 of the 5000 could be delivered, failing the contract already 🙂

    Another comment of mine was that one needs to look into the penalty for failing the contract and perhaps reevaluation the profit/contribution considering this circumstance.

    Sadly, time was short on the entire question

    I did the session CBE version.

    ACCA needs to get a grip when they roll out this exam version. First, I could only start my exam with 35min delay because of technical problems of various kinds. Then, during the exam I got interrupted twice by staff. Then they wanted to add time to my exam (3. interruption), fair game, but did not manage. So they stopped my exam to call tech service etc. This happened roughly 8min before exam should have ended for me.

    I will file a complaint, hence I was interrupted so many times and lost my train of thoughts and unequal exam environment.

    Very poorly done on ACCA side!

    Passed today…first try.

    Thanks John for your great course and (honest) advice on how to look at the questions.
