    Somehow fair enough, but difficult to predict the outcome.

    Seemed OK. Answered all the questions but I’ve read alot of examiner note which end with “…and because this detail was missing, they got 0 marks”, so who knows..

    It was okay but I didn’t finish all the questions. I was too focused on meeting all question requirements in the questions I attempted. Hopefully the ones I managed to complete were enough to pass

    Not sure how it went.. Hopefully enough to pass!! I ran out of time towards the end, I was just trying to write as many points as I could for the substantive procedures questions. Was focussing on the auditor risks / responses and the control deficiencies. Hoping I passed enough in section A too. Last exam of the year done 🙂

    Ok, didn’t get a quality management review question aside from being part of an audit risk section B so that was good.

    who knows what the result is going to be though since some examiner comments needs more details for the mark to count.

    Seemed pretty fair if enough practice questions were done in the exam kit.

    Exam was fair but didnt get time to review my answers. Do they penalise you for typo?

    The exam was ok, questions of audit risk and test of control were not that difficult may be because of enough practice the answers were on my mind but i was not able to manage the time somehow and was short of time in the end missed some points to add on, one cannot say anything about mcqs but they were tricky hoping for the best and preparing for Fm.

    There was one section A question about wages that I found absolutely brutal. Could not get to an answer at all!

    It really was! I put A in the end because it definitely wasn’t D! Really bugged me!

    Well, it wasn’t too bad, but I got a lot of questions on substantive procedures in sec A and B both. Apart from that I struggled in Audit Risk question, was quite a hard and unique carrying 18 marks. Let’s hope for the best.

    Exactly that wages question took almost 3minutes of mine to solve it ….at the end i again came back to it spend to have a glance at it but still wasn’t able to get it and guesses the option in the end.

    Me too, they were cheeky with two things needed to be added, but only one happening halfway through the year.

    I used the average cost for the previous year, multiplied it by the closing head count, added the annual wage increase and then added the 6/12 for the other increase (can’t remember what this was for) but I hope it was correct!
