1000000% agree. Think we had very similar experiences! I also only managed to attempt the first 2 questions in the last section B question. Wasted far too much time on A. Hopefully we don’t have to sit it again! All the best to you
@genuiz999 totally! I did the same and had to go back and redo the calculations, I think they were even wrong still after that! This was my first strategic paper. Not feeling very hopeful for a pass. I’ve learnt from it though, will read all the information first next time ???? good luck!
Omg yes it was so weird! I lost so much time in section A, I got confused with the IHT question when I read the next part that said what would you change if he made the gift 6 months later!! I went back and changed my answer, I realise now I messed that up. I put that there would be no NRB at all if he’d made the gift on the original date but I hadn’t considered lifetime tax on the CLT ????
I also wrote that BADR would be available on the sale of the farm. Oh dear.I was super confused by the VAT question, what were supposed to write if not about di minimis?? I calculated the differences for the capital goods scheme, not even sure if I was supposed to do that either.
I can’t remember much else from the 1st B question, I know I skipped one part of it. And then in the 2nd B question I didn’t even do very good workings for the loss relief one and I ran out of time whilst answering the RDEC question.
I’m so stressed now, I don’t feel I performed well. This next 6 weeks is going to be killer. I’ll also go to sec B first next time.
Good luck!
