This F8 paper was ok to me. And I sort of predicted audit of payroll/wages would appear as this new examiner has not set any audit qn on this yet. So overall was abit lengthy but yet not too tricky for most parts.

Very lenghty paper didnt answer 8 pc of the marks which is not so bad. Not a terribly difficult paper but not so easy either
As with all the exams again a lengthy paper subdivided into a lot of small questions. Not very difficult but a lot to digest and write about…. Explain and describe in most of them. There wasn’t any straightforward “List” questions????
Hope for the best.Hi, paper was lengthy but less tricky, just one thing in Q5 Contingent Liability, I managed to complete it though but it will depend on the quality of answers, my guess to score is 70 but lets see, I think pass rate will be lower from last time (40%)…
