    well it was alright i suppose i did find that the time was a restraint, i lost out on 9 easy marks on the corporation tax vat question. part c and d.
    all in all if i pass i will give full credit to open tuition if i fail i will consider it my fault because the lectures here were brilliant

    It was not too tough, but I was ill-prepared as I only started studying a week before the exams.. If I pass which I hope I will, the entire credit will be due to the open tuition team!

    The paper itself was not difficult. The problem I had was lack of time. I think I may have spent too long on question 1, which meant the rest of the paper was very rushed. I’m pretty sure I’ve lost lots of marks along the way as I didn’t have time to double check everything in case I had missed something.

    If only we had more time!

    Very very time pressured!!
    I hate the way tutors teach you stuff and the examiner puts a constant twist on everything!
    If I was to meet him in a dark alley well i’d…say “oi examiner noooo!! stop playing with me mind”

    🙁

    The advisory part of the paper are not easy to do… a lot of work but carry a few marks. End up doing question 4 last because it takes ages to read through
    Generally not too bad tho

    I thought the exam questions were OKish… There was a lot to be done and most questions were subdivided presumably to cover most of the syllabus areas???
    Hope for an above 50 pass mark though, but you never know.
    Did anyone get £159,000 adjusted trading loss for Q2?? Does anyone remember how many marks it had.
    And the one with PPR gain of £6,000??
    The paper had a lot of questions on losses.
    Disappointed with the IHT question not what I was expecting.
    Time was of the essence again.

    Just about got it done.

    Q1 Income tax. was very easy indeed. SPlit up nicely and the NIC element was easy easy marks
    Q2 CT. not bad. Easy marks for VAT I thought compared to some past papers.
    Q3 CGT, ok quite a few areas where marks can be picked up even if all figs are not correct.
    Q4 – lengthy, lengthy but again marks are there to be picked up for each bit
    Q5 – didn’t do much on the losses bit , but the CT including Double Tax Relief was ok and again the IHT was ok

    Be disappointed if I do not get 50. Considering I put in serious work into this paper.

    Thanks to opentuition though

    Ok overall
    Q1 fairly straightforward
    Lots to do on Q2 – I spent 1 hr 10 mins and still didn’t have time to go back over the mistake I’d made in the capital allowances!
    Q3 and Q4 ok but I made a couple of silly errors due to rushing
    Q5 I had left very little time for but gave it my best shot.
