    This was a simple exam technically except for Q.3 but was unnecessarily time pressured with very few marl allocation!It seems this examiner has missed point of setting this particular exam because he seems more inclined to testing time management rather than the skills.Even in offices,you need time to think and analyze the problem and organize your solution before writing it out.In this exam,this was missed out instead questions were designed with so much details but with little time to assemble the information.I HAVE SERIOUS RESERVATIONS WITH MARK ALLOCATIONS IN THIS SITTING.TOO MUCH QUESTION REQUIREMENTS WITH MASSIVE INFORMATION WITH VERY FEW MARKS.LOOK AT Q.3 a)2 marks to calculate the net cash flow from restructuring,4marks to construct a Revised statement of Financial position following the Restructuring.!This paper was unnecessary time- pressured for no good cause!If the examiner has run out of good technical questions,he/she should step aside and leave a new examiner to take over the setting.THIS PAPER WAS PURE EXAGGERATION OF TIME PRESSURE.Candidates should be tested on a reasonable balance between technical aspect and time management.I will fail this paper not because of lacking knowledge but the reasonable time pressure created by the examiner asking too many small questions which require a lot of information for little marks.The examiner missed the point here.By the way,who is the current examiner for AFM?
