    p4 examiner report

    point number 8 – Do a quick check; does your numerical answer make sense?

    you don’t have time to finish your exam and you have time to quick check.. don’t know what this gentleman is made up of…

    Yeah this annoyed me to, yeah examiner I did a quick check while the invigilator was prizing the paper out my hand.

    There’s barely time to an npv and report how are you then getting time to check your answers never mind the extra time it took to just read the paper

    7 hours bring it on, 7 hours before I have to inform family that I cant pass one bloody exam!

    I be the only professionally qualified person in my family and I hate the pressure that gives me.

    Nah I’m not having it that non-finalists can access this link. Photo or it never happened!

    Only think I can say on this different is, I 100% could not open the students link to the grey and white pages untill abotu a week ago.

    Check page 3, Elia put the link up and I posted something like ‘still cant get in which is a bad sign’

    Then last week I got in, what could the reason be to not having access then having access

    I think there is a competition going in between option papers examiners. The one who fails the most will get some bonus, award or something

    I actually think this is true. I read it on an ACCA page I found through a special link

    I couldn’t be bothered to read through the examiner’s reports for P6 and P7 – anyone read them want to let me know if I’ve passed or failed? I can access the white/grey pages though!

    To be honest Rebecca they all say the same as they always do, which is – we all suck at exams and should be doing better and the crap pass rates have nothing to do with the examiners

    Guys, it’s not only P4 – there was no way you were reading all questions in P6 and P7 within 15 minutes as well as making a plan for the answers! Who’s starting the petition? LOL

    We’re starting the petition hahaha, they’ll care when we have 100,000 students….

    I remember having to like do the question 1 as i read through it…. so i kept thinking I’d finished my NPV and totaled up, then read another bit, had to scribble my totals out and add another line…. i had like 3 totals scribbled out and added too.

    I had not time to write down my like my conversion of prices/costs I just converted and put straight into NPV table if that makes sense.

    Lets all petition the p4 results on the basis that the examiners report dosent hold water if he is complaining about people not using the 15 minitue reading time

    Its obviosuly unfair to the rules of the exam to be given 15 min reading time when the paper takes longer than that to read….

    What do you think?

    I also love how the examiner says ‘people dont use their 15 mintues reading time well enough and plan their answer’

    P4 took me about 30 mins just to read through the paper never mind plan an answer.

    Yes ..some fair body with reasonable exams and where exams are set as per syllabus and students preparation. Not examiners preparation. He always says well prepared students will grab pass marks…He is a lier…what does he mean that we are not well prepared. we will not be serious for our final paper. Nonsense

    I think its such a valid point, every report he says the paper was fair and doable with in time limit. Then everyone says it was un fair and time restricted!

    I just wish it was more linked to your job and about experience, i know you get the experience log but it still comes down to going into an exam hall and not freaking out for 3 hours.

    This is the first time in a long time I only had 1 paper to study for. I even got a study buddy and we sat on skype going over questions for about 2 months. I was well prepared and i still struggled!
