May 25, 2012 at 2:10 pm #97792F8 June 2012 : For sure following are the chapter you cannot ignore if you wanna pass F8. Here are the chapters:
1. Ethics ( threats and safeguards to independence/ how an auditor accept an appointment )
2. Planning and risk ( especially Audit risk and its application- should be good at picking risk from scenario and commenting upon them- should also know the definition of audit risk and three components well) / what impact on audit strategy of selected audit risk level.
3. Internal controls ( something you cant rule out from F8 paper / sales and purchase system looks at top priority)/ Test of controls too
4.Substantive procedures ( again receivables/ payables/ sales / purchases / inventory looks important)
5. Review ( Subsequent events / going concern)
6. Reporting ( looks important – again opinions in a given scenario)May 31, 2012 at 11:38 am #97793salman2222 thank you for your notes but i have a few questions ?

Gob bless everybody, thx! It’s definitely worth a try although not a sole reliance!
June 11, 2012 at 8:54 pm #97803Apparently F5 was a disaster today. Just read some of the comments on their Forum. Is that what’s in store for us in F8, I wonder? Really scared, folks. Basically, I’d give these tips a wide bearth and revise topics that have not been tipped by anyone!
