exam technique, exam technique !!!! know your standards, read the requirements before doing anything and it isnt that bad. The examiner is telling you what they want. Don’t let this forum scare you.
from one of the examiners: ” use sensible exam technique on the day of the exam are very likely to secure a pass”. – the exam is 100% exam technique.
Having Sat P7 over a year ago and passed very easily, anyone who says an exam is not about exam technique needs to have their head examined. It is 100% about exam technique.
Look at the requirements before doing anything. They are telling you what you have to do and how much time you need to spend on each part.
It is also telling you how to structure your answer and how much time you should be spending on each part of the question.
I have read the thread and the number of people who spent so much time on Q1 is really quite shocking. There really is no excuse for not answering all questions and parts.
I’m sorry to say this but anyone who doesn’t agree with this or feels the exam is unfairly wrong, you need to take a look at yourself.
And fundamentally P7 is knowing your accounting standards, to prepare for p7 do out a short summary of the key points to each standard and learn it off. You will not pass the exam without knowing your accounting standards. It is assumed knowledge. (P2)
Best of luck, it really can be done, Do people not look at the examiner comments which are released after the results?
I would also say that anyone who feels its not like real life and not what auditing is about. Do you realise it is an exam?
Best of luck all, it’s not meant to be easy, but the benefits are worth the effort…
