iPad has helped me a lot for my final paper, especially with the apple Pencil Was a nice combination and given I take a lot of notes it was good to have everything in one place and the with the textbooks on the iPad but less things to carry.
May 5, 2020 at 2:50 pm #570032@amcarolines I found that exam practice is key that’s what I felt was the biggest change i made on 3rd attempt, I felt sometimes you can easily misread the questions so doing practice questions helped with that.
Thanks,

@amcarolines i understand what your going through.i didn’t even have the courage to check the exams results until today because this was my 10th attempt…yes 10th attempt…at one point i thought of a review but it is a waste of time and money.
eventually i ve passed with a 50%.dont give up keep trying.Good luck.Well done for not giving up!!! you must be over the moon. This paper is tough. I passed on third attempt.

Are you British born?

Thanks,
AminaJune 21, 2018 at 12:37 am #459539Hi,
This is what I felt about the exam
I got 66% in audit first time …my tips are you need to know your P2 knowledge as this will be tested. You are auditing the financial statements given in the exam I.e if they are in accordance to the ias and what the risks there are that they are not. With audit I found it’s best to be concise and to the point. For example: define: accordance to ias ppe , ppe should be recognised if the following criteria is met e.g probable eco benefit and cost of asset can reliably measured. Relate to the scenario, according to the senerio an item has been capitalised but doesn’t meet the criteria of probable eco benefit as it dependent on blah blah, therefore it can be argued that the ppe figure is overstated. There is a misstatement risk. Something like this this. Sorry I wrote this as an example from the top of my head.I felt it is best not to use words it like it is wrong or incorrect but like there is a possibility that it’s overstated and understated. And when I wasn’t sure which standard it related to I was like it can be argued that this relates to this standard because xyz. I hope this makes sense. Definitely do the exam kit invest your time in this- it will give the technique structure that you need for the exam. Also the articles are useful to read although I cannot remember if that came up.

August 8, 2015 at 11:14 am #266229Thank you for this post! i will be taking this exam for the 3rd time and has caused me alot of problems despite the amount work i have put in..
You are right! keep going and trying! But i am honestly lost as to how to approach it or study for it.

But it seems link theory was true 🙁Yeah it does (i guess the ones that see it definitely have passed) but those who can’t doesn’t mean they haven’t made it – still a chance!

P7 – “A number of common issues arose in candidates’ answers that contributed to the disappointing pass rate: ” I am getting very worriedme too ;-(
July 31, 2015 at 4:55 pm #263326Why did I read the examiners reports for p7 and p5!…any little hope i had has now been destroyed!

Still 5-6 days before result… maybe you get in that link within next days……Thanks! that’s encouraging
@suitcase said:
P5 again!hmm lets hope it changes in the next few days…in the meantime, i am praying that i pass at least at this rate.

I still can’t access the link on page 15 either. I hope this is not some sort of a bad sign 🙁 I am getting really worried right nowSame here! I think it’s probably best not to dwell on this too much..I’ll go insane.
I remember I got an email from Acca when I was not a finalist asking whether I wanted to opt in to be included on the list. So this would be reflected on the page I think.
I now just hope I pass 1 paper out of the 2 at this rate.July 26, 2015 at 11:01 am #262162@gabriel2013 said:
But could you also access the link on page 15?Nope, I still can’t get into the link on pg15
July 26, 2015 at 10:54 am #262155@/gabriel2013/
I get the exact same information as you after ticking – opt in.July 25, 2015 at 10:53 pm #262031@suitcase said:
I haven’t seen anyone that did p5 be able to get into the link…Let’s hope they have been delayed…although i am convinced i have failed p5 as it was a horrible paper

July 25, 2015 at 9:17 pm #262023I did p5 and p7 – and I can’t get into the link…and have the date of 13 July 15 on my status.
I am not particularly optimistic! - AuthorPosts
