Good luck to anyone trying acca exams. Be strong in ur mind. Time to think about PPPP papers

48….!!!
Next time In Sha Allah…

What? 45 Marks… failed. I was very happy when I finished the exam and so confident in getting arount 70 marks.

I’m shocked. But I’ll resit asap on Dec15. For Sep15 I’m studying for F9.

…Shi**!

The problem with F8 is annoying because you study the whole syllabus and know the procedure, steps and definition, but enventhough… you have high chances to fail. And in my case I have professional experience where I led the audit of my company (being the direct contact with auditors from start to the finished audit report)!!

I think this time I’ll study only through Exam Kit Revision. Last time I prepared the whole Opentuition Lecture notes which are EXCELLENT, also studied the Technical Articles of ACCA and practice with past papers.

The revision kit focus more on how to approach the answer from examiner point of view and what wording should be used to explain the answer.

Let’s see what advice can give us those who achieved high marks.

Thanks!

Dear Colleague,

I am happy to hear that you led the audit team/process; but disappointed that you’ve failed. It was the exact thing that you should have done – answering the questions – the whole exam was audit processes. Take a look! I presumed you were flustered when they asked the questions – you may not be aware how to answer them.

My suggestion – every activities of your job; put it in exams term and make notes of your actions. Audit is police and thief – you’ll catch them next time.

The exam is the actual practical work which must be carried out. It is coupled with some definition which we ALL should be familiar with – control environment, risk and assessment, and the objectives of carrying out an audit. I hope you’ll apply yourself and stop to think – start putting every you do in exam format.

Regards,

This paper is so annoying to me. This is my second attempt at it and I got 40%. Please high achievers like aloft and the person who got 88 please give me some advice on how to pass. Thank you ot.

My method for exams F2-F9 has been to first view the lectures on Open Tuition and then spend lots of time with the revision kits and doing at least 95% of all questions. Sometimes I do questions 2-3 times to make sure I understand it and can formulate a good answer well within the designated time. I think it’s important to answer the questions as you would in the exam and not just scribble down some bullet point.

This has worked relatively well for me so far: 3 exams 90+, 4 exams 80+, 1 exam 78. I’m also usually done 10 minutes before the time limit (except the CBEs which took max 1 hour per exam)

the same , i failed with 45 marks , 3rd attempt, i got 46 marks last time. i think we will not give up , try harder , i believe we will pass in dec 15.
