    After reading all posts I came to the conclusion that I’m not the only one who thinks that this paper was harder than previous ones. Q1 took most of my energy and then I had switched to the question on Porter’s 5 forces I spent a lot of time to carefully read the scenario and understand the question but got stuck with suggesting performance measures based on external business environment analysis. I overran the allocated time for this Q and then I rushed to the question on ABC on which I spent valuable time to understand TFQ in part A(((
    To my mind the paper is really time pressured. I had no time to plan my answers carefully. If I start to plan carefully then I have no time to write all my ideas in the answer booklet for the time allocated. I cannot write more quickly as I think that my handwriting will be hard to understand. Guys, please advise how to prepare answer plan more effectively?

    Hi, guys!
    What did u have for internal control measures? I stuck with the Q and start writing about control awareness, responsive ICS and so on. After finishing Q1 I saw requirement about risk awareness in Q2! I think that my answer for Q1 about internal control measures was completely wrong (((

    I agree that the paper is adequate. Share based payment is not my topic so I’ve chosen SMEs. Hope for 50 at least. I think that the pass rate for this paper will be above average.

    This is my first sitting of P1. To my mind the peper was not hard. All U had to do just use common sense and a little bit of theory. The exam technique is really important. I run out of time. I think I fail just because of my poor revision and time management. But guys, this paper was rather easy for whose who was well prepared.
