this exam was definitely a good one. i was expecting it to drive me nuts, but time pressured especially to complete question 5.

Cant believe i was the one writing in the examination hall. auditing hasnt been my favourite,but this paper was easy. opentuition video was very helpful.thanks alot.
June 8, 2011 at 8:19 pm #83720I felt time pressure too and many who have posted on the forums felt the same. However i attribute this to the relatively easy questions and our excitement to write everything we know. Its very very important to plan the answer and learn when to stop.

This was a fair paper. Very passable once you did the work. Ran out of time even though I tried to answer the questions sticking to time limits. Hoping for the best.

Dont worry also depends on the writing style. I began each question and subquestion on a new page. Words cud be more spaced out and some ppl also write on alternate lines. All that cud add up scripts. Also i reckon i wrote too much detail which may have not been required. As far as you covered key points and made sense, you are on your way to pass. Do let us know if you pass.

The F8 paper was fairly ok. Q1 was lengthy and I made a mess of part (a) 12 marks I explained about control activities – SACCAMAP for “test of controls” instead of Enquiry, Observation, Review, Inspection and Testing “ROTIE” – accronym I use. I did not get to attempt Q3. I am doomed I miss even the border line on passing. Q4 and Q5 were Ok. To all who maybe gloomy now, cheer up!!! Hey we still have another chance to put up a fight with this “BULL” Dec2011.
June 9, 2011 at 1:06 am #83726I see that the tutor got it right with the tips. I hope Mr. F9 on the ball to.
It was a very good exam. More easy to pass than fail.

This paper was a good paper in comparison to the Decenber paper. While studying I reviewed December paper and it seemed long as hell. This paper was far better but still was a lot of writing.
Question 1 was a little intimidating because it required so much writing spent 1 hr. just answering this question. The other questions I had not much problems with only was a ton of writing trying to make answers as clear as possible. only thing with this exam was the point allocation; some questions required more writing than the points seemed to indicate in order to produce a clear answer.
Answered all questions so hopefully it’s a pass, have to wait for results.
June 9, 2011 at 2:48 am #83728it was easy but lengthy

It is not very hard but time consuming. not did well in Q5 regarding audit report:( And I have no time to check and review the question number on the header of answer sheet. Will the answer be regarded as invaid one, if I marked the wrong question number on the answer sheet?

i found this attempt’s paper quite easy maybe because that I managed to go through F8 BPP study text on exam day in 2 and half hour. This revision helped me a lot in exam. Now I realise that Audit is nothing but memorisation of study text, if you have memorised/read study text two three times then linking it to scenario is not a difficult thing.
I hope to get good pass this time and wish you all best of luck and may everybody get good pass this time.
June 9, 2011 at 6:14 am #83734As per the above comments, I have flunked ALREADY 🙁
June 9, 2011 at 6:24 am #83735I wrote everything that was right (in my opinion). I have some SERIOUS conflicts with the examiner’s thoughts though :P.
Do pray for all 🙂June 9, 2011 at 6:26 am #83736I forgot to mark questions on the answer sheet :S I just wrote the answers and didn’t mention which answer is it 🙁 Damn 🙁

This was my second sitting for this exam – I thought I did really well last December but came out with 40%.
I answered everything this time around but just hope I get 50%
Reading through everyones notes I may of misunderstood a few questions especially the one about external confirmation – it asked us to list and example other ways of confirming the evidence.
I took this as Review, Verify, Written, Oral methods – I think I have messed this question up.
June 9, 2011 at 7:31 am #83738hope the standard could be set higher, then fail you all…
