I sat mine in Southampton and the experience was awful. The exam was 1h20mins late, we were all sat staring at a blank screen for this long waiting. There was no explanation from the invigilators and no apology. The computer equipment was awful, tiny screens and my mouse didn’t work properly. There was even a girl behind me left the room crying because her software had crashed. The computer screens were tiny and the CBE software is horrible and you can’t open more than one box at a time which makes it very hard to understand the question fully and refer back to the scenario etc. The questions themselves I don’t think were too complicated at all however the CBE software, stress of exam being late and masks and old computers made it a very difficult experience. I am thinking of making a formal complaint to be honest, not sure if this will affect my results though.
Did anyone take the UK paper and get what they were asking about in regards to the different ways fair value is measured for FRS102 and IFRS? My Kaplan book doesn’t give any clue as to the differences?
I am very confused, in my Kaplan study text on page 544 it quotes “In the F7 exam, a 20 mark group accounts preparation question will not include disposals of subsidiaries” However a 20 mark question included a disposal of a subsidiary within group accounts. Anyone else got this question? Thinking of complaining to Kaplan.
