Hope all is well this time around. I received the greatest disappointment with this Paper F8 which I always conclude to be the easiest among its peers I've encountered.

it was rather ok for the first time,although i felt time pressured & did not answer all questions that properly..i feel 50/50 with my performance and hope just for the ''golden 50''...that we''ll do..
Former userFormer user15y ago#130
audit evidence relates, to: recalculation,analytical procedures,reperformance,inspection, observation. You have to define them and give an example from purchases or other expenses if i am not mistaken. i only gave examples relating to purchases.

correct?

One can guess my busy job schedule in the sense that i am participating in this discussion when the result of F8 is nearly three weeks away. I must say that i was granted 3 days leave to prepare and take up my F8 paper and guess what these were the only days that i studied F8 contents and my only source was "open tuition.com notes". Surprisingly, in contrast to my own expectations i did quite well. Since it was my first attempt therefore i am not finding myself able to compare it with past appers except for that while going through the past papers i had realised that passing F8 paper is hell of a job. I hope I get results in my favour...just keeping my fingers crossed
