    Exam was ok I felt – added up the marks I think I got for each question and deducted marks for prudence and it came to 64. That being said I know I went off topic so……..

    Also, did anyone else do it in Newcastle? Am I the only one who constantly kept hearing what sounded like a birds nest on the roof??

    question 5b (12 marks!) 3 scenarios for how each misstatement affects audit report. Messed up 2nd scenario.
    Also for 3b for 5 audit risk for audit plan (10 marks!), i got only 2 audit risks.
    Also, did not know how to manage the conflict of interest for auditing 2 rival companies (5 marks!….i think)
    hopefully i gathered enough marks in the rest of the exam!

    was a very good paper basically it was knowledge based straight from the study Text. It took me 1hrs though to come up with the first 12marks on Q1.

    This was a very good paper and the first ACCA paper I have actually completed and answered all the questions.

    In the last half hour I went back to question 1a and 3b as I didn’t want to spend lots of time on these when I knew I could answer other questions and be sure to pick up the marks elsewhere.

    Am quite glad I did as from what others have said they ran out of time for Q5 as they spent too much time on q1.
