I think on the whole the exam was relatively easy compared to some of the questions i worked with in the exam kits.
Hoping for a good pass mark!

Is it correct that for the audit evidence I mentioned stuff like 1. Original docs and not copies 2. Viewing the documents first hand rather than obtaining them without knowing the source. I forgot what else I wrote, but does this make sense?

I am confused as well about the receivables question. What came to mind was – 1. Valuation & Allocation 2. Existence 3. Cut-off 4. Rights & Obligations

rajad2010 first one is a tricky one, you cannot depreciate land, therefore does it meet the accounting standards…
Paper was easy but now the examiner expects the more efficient answer as a compensation of this.

Well f8 wasn’t that bad but i think 3 hours is too short to cover 5 questions.I ran out of time in question 1.
Question 1… Test of controls, were to test the internal control environment, using enquiry, inspection, observation, recalculation and reperformance, couldnt use analytical procedures, as not a test of control,
question 3…. the 5 audit procedures were analytical procedures, inspection, observation, enquiry, recalculation,
question 3 is not to be confused with types of audit evidence e.g original documents, written better than oral e.t.c
External confirmation was a bit misleading… hope that clears a few things up

Well, the last question quite good for me.. It was my first attempt and I was horribly worried when I did not know how o start the paper, but I knew for sure that when I get started I wont stop, and it happened.. I was 3rd, globally in CAT Advanced level, but due to load of office work, just wanna pass..
@willynwilson are u sure that its a correct answer??? if it is! then i am happy! 🙂

Why are you all answering Q5 last when it carries 20 marks???? Best exam practice would be to answer Q1,3,4,5 then 2. You stand to lose less marks if you run out of time.

It was much was totally opposite to what i have heard about this exam. My friend told me this is one of the most confusing and toughest while to be honest i found it very easy . case studies were simple and straight no zigzags and questions were as simpler as well. though i solved 4 question coz i had alot to write and time was short still m very optimistic that i will at least pass the exam.. nd guess what i just prepared it for one week only a dedicated one week…..
