Finally passed, 6th attempt 53%.
I felt like giving up so all that failed please keep going.
I really struggled with my writing skills. The difference between fail and pass for me was to keep my answers short, to the point and no waffle. I missed out huge sections of questions and still passed! I used a mixture of open tuition and videos on Vimeo from ACCA Pakistan exam approach webinars, and how all the subjects link together and which models to use. I also practised exam questions as my exam revision the last 6 weeks of revision. For me it was structuring my answer and using ‘buzz’ words to help me formulate an answer.Good luck to all who are retaking!
Failed 48 on third attempt! Thought I did a lot worse, please can someone explain theories and the e commerce
I finally passed f8 getting 54%, in December I failed with 49%. I worked on my English and writing technique, for me this was the difference between marginal fail and pass.
Gutted 48% at second attempt! feel like giving up, I wish we could get exam feed back
Failed 36%, it was my second attempt! first attempt was 46%. I found Septembers exam really hard even tough I was confident beforehand and knew more that I did on the 1st attempt. 3rd time lucky in December.
Disaster! MCQ not too bad, but all the main questions, I struggled with the interpretation of the questions then had a melt down. Not happy as I had to drive 400 miles round trip to nearest exam centre and a hotel … Headless to say I am gutted.
I found section A very hard and guessed alot of the answers.
Section B, there was no WACC which I thought would be there!.
Qu1 Currency – I put by using the forward rate they would receive more $
Qu NPV – I got 29 and inflated the sales year on year. Positive result
Qu Factoring company – Costs were the annual fee, then the factoring costs, I put 2% * ((7% – 5%, costs of interest for each company) 30/360 * sales invoices and it resulted in a small net benefit
Qu business valuation – unsure
