Orhodes: F6 was by far my worst F level exam with a low pass even though I actually thought it went OK after the exam. Keep practising questions, the examiner is limited in what can be asked to the published syllabus.
Writing tips – you should work on the (rough) basis that one mark is worth one sentence of 2-3 lines. Make it easy for the marker reviewing your booklet by clearly differentiating between each “point”. Use a ruler for sections. This way, the marker is more likely to forgive poor writing (are you talking about speed or quality?).
Jamerson: I sat my last F level in March 2016. I then did P1 and P4 in June 2016, P2 in Sept 2016 and P3 and P5 in December 2016. This was not a fun 9 months! With your responsibilities I’d say it will be tough but very achievable to do one P level exam per quarter.
You could also consider whether the college courses are a good investment in terms of your time, adding any extra travel time to/from the classroom. Could you self-study this to the same level? Obviously ignore this if college suits you!
Hope this helps.
Hi Brook,
That’s right, only lectures and notes from OT and BPP revision kit. Don’t forget the technical articles too on ACCAs website.
Igor: as discussed above, I don’t think there was any need to also deduct retained earnings as they would have formed part of the net assets (given).
I think I got positive goodwill of $6.2m
You are right (I hope so at least!). Net assets by definition is = A – L = E
To then further deduct the share capital is double counting it.
