I am still in shock over this exam.

I thought I extremely well prepared. I attended all of the classes, studied the exam kit, completed all the mocks, reviewed the Specimen papers and this exam was nothing like what I expected.

Yes, I thought the cash flows question was fair but the rest of it was alien to me. I have passed every exam first time and this would have been my final exam.

I am really upset about this, it was as if I turned up and received the wrong paper.

I am preparing myself for resitting in March but if this is how the exams are going to be, I am not convinced I am ever going to pass.

Does anyone know if they scale the marks?
How soon is the paper uploaded to the ACCA website?

I will certainly be writing a complaint. I just hope everyone else does too so they can understand that this paper really was unfair.

I am still in shock about this exam.

I attended all the Kaplan classes, studied the exam kit, completed the mocks, completed the Specimen papers, and did extra research on the IASB revisions. Nevertheless, the exam yesterday was alien to me.

Yes, the statement of cash flows question was ok but the rest of it – really? I thought I had been given the wrong paper at one point.

I am absolutely gutted as I have spent so much time studying for what would have been my last exam and I know I have failed. I have never failed an exam before and never felt so helpless in an exam before.

Does anyone know if the marks are scaled?
Also, when does ACCA upload the exam paper and answers?

I am certainly going to write a complaint to the ACCA as this exam was so unfair. I really hope other people complain too, just to highlight how bad it was.

Worst exam I’ve ever sat. Absolutely gutted. Complaint email has been sent.
