    I did happen to finish exam on time,i guess it was the extra 15 mins dat helped me.
    All in all i think i did well,but just like several comments here there are chances of mistakes like misinterpreting the question which gives me the chill of perhaps failing.
    i plan to start studying next week for two papers, aiming december session but I’m a little hesitant to start before p1 results.
    let’s be positive and best of luck to all fr the results.

    Hi
    I think it was about company but which operated in developing country. A corruption problem was in both country and company.

    Hi
    I agree Q2 was easy as a knowledge, but I had a problem to apply to the case study. There wasn’t much to apply.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi
    I also didn’t manage my time well. I spent too much time on Q2 as I had a problem to apply to the scenario. Than I had to rush through.

    I thought question (i) was about the company aswell. I missed (Ii) as I ran out of time. Is it possible to still pass it I missed out on clear 18marks ?

    I was confused too… finally I opted for the country as the part 1 and 2 referred to the country rather than the company-barriers against corruption fight in the country and measures that can be taken to fight corruption in the country!

    Hi guys, I am planning to give this exam in December 16. From your experience could you please tell whether the 5 day lectures would suffice or should I also take revision classes.
    Thanks.

    You are not alone in this experience. I almost fell into the same trap if not for a timely decision when I had already spent an hour and twenty minutes on the question. Overall,I think the question was OK and I’m hopeful of being successful!.
    Best of luck to every participant!

    It was about the country as the examiner mentioned Xuland and not Xuland Oil.

    I think the paper’s ok. Although I lacked time and couldn’t answer all the questions, still hoping to pass this time.

    It was my first time writing ACCA paper, I find it the sitting horrible. I spent more than 2hrs for Q1 and answered 2 and 3 but didn’t have enough time to finish question 3.

    The exam was a disaster for me. I’m even scared think how much I can get in exam.

    I think there was Xuland Oil in most requirements, but I am not sure if in all of them
