    Thought the exam was very passable.

    My exam technique let me down big time, didn’t get back to 15 marks on question 17!

    Still think I passed it though, multiple choice were tricky enough

    If you can remember the answers for each option, will be more preferable.

    The questions were ok, but writing takes very long, I felt that it should have been a 4 hour exam rather than 3 hours 15 mins, so did not finish the last question. I did start it to try and pick some easy marks. So gutted, I hope I did enough to pass.

    What dis everyone answer for the inventory related MCQ? You had to select the outcome of the audit report.
    Think the options were
    Qualified except for
    Basis of opinion describe problem
    Disclaimer
    Add key audit matter

    If I remember rightly, I think I chose qualified except for, I did process of elimination, cause it’s not a KAM, cause the auditors were not present during the inventory count, so should have been Other Matter, it can’t be disclaimer cause I didn’t think it’s pervasive

    Yes, there was a lot of C’s at the last part of the MCQs.
    The hardest for me was question about Key Matters for 5points. Not sure what was supposed to write there?
    And what were the substantive procedures for the bank overdraft and saving account for 5points? Couldnt think of 5…

    The ACCA F8 exam was manageable but as usual i couldn’t finish on time. I had only ten minutes to go for the last question. I didn’t even read the scenario just had to give some general responses.
