    I think this is a tough paper, lots to cover in limited time. I managed to answer every question but didn’t have any spare time to review. I am confident that I have done enough to pass, but wouldn’t expect more than 55 marks.

    This is my first skills paper where i can safely say i sufficiently attempted 100 out of 100 marks. I’m hoping for a nice score for my last skills paper 🙂

    This is my first attempt of this Paper. I find it hard as it’s very long and discursive. Felt confident about my answer but I hope they made sense. Hoping for a consideration from the markers. Hope we all pass.

    Good for you @henry1acca ! Very confident indeed. You must be the one who was typing so fast on the keyboard and get all the answer just like that 🙂 Congratulations in advance.

    Thanks drkeogh83. This was my second attempt at this paper after failing last attempt at 49 marks. I wouldn’t say i’m the fastest typer in the west but after countless hours studying the answer was there in my mind without a second thought so really hoping for a decent pass. Good luck with your result! I’ve already started studying SBL 🙂

    @henry1acca that’s nice to hear. Very inspiring revenge after they did not give you the 1 mark. I’m sure you nailed the exams. Congratulations in advance.

    Substantive procedures on revenue
    Substantive procedures on trade payables
    Substantive procedures in respect of receivables
    Substantive procedures on the provision of the restructuring costs
    Calculate 4 ratios
    My audit opinion was on the restructuring costs, the company said 0.9million but auditors had calculated £1.2 million & you had to say what effects on the report it would have if they didn’t amend amount. I said material, qualified except for and adverse opinion???
    If they did amend accounts then unmodified report as true and fair.

    Trying to remember more!

    I think the exam was ok. I finished with an hour spare- which worries me.. but I went back and checked I hadn’t missed a question and reviewed my answers. Time will tell I suppose! Last one for me in that level so fingers crossed! Now to get back to enjoying life and Christmas!
