    Please advise me. I did my exam on 3rd Dec and answered all 5 questions (in two booklets) and the supervisor indicated that there are two booklets on the front cover of the first booklet. However, due to time pressure I forgot to tick the question completed box on the first booklet and the box is totally empty. So will I be deducted marks or will I paper be marked?

    Will it be an issue because I haven’t ticked the box?

    Thanks.

    No it doesnot pose a problem for you, your script would be marked, I had a couple of such occassions before, and I had a mail from ACCA confirming that the script would be marked.

    Gabriel i just simply tick all questions available in the question book while filling the paperform before exam :).

    But don’t worry it won’t influence your mark and your work will be checked.

    Good luck man!

    I will be sitting my first exam with ACCA on Monday (F4) and i’m really nervous now about things i am going to forget to do etc!
    I keep reading people that have forgotten to do things (like this thread) & feel like i have to remember all sorts of other things & not just doing the exam! :-/

    @eackary

    I think you can download the front orange paper somewhere from Open Tuition site, so you can get familiar with it – then you won’t get nervous before exam what to fill/tick and what to not 🙂

    Please read carefully open tuition tips about the day of exam (arriving early, spare pens, “don’t panic etc.).

    In my opinion the most important thing not to forget is your time management. I ensure you when you will dive into questions you will be in trance 🙂

    Good luck!

    I did that once to! You have to trust the profesionalism of the markers – there not idiots. Eackary, no worries but, as seagoat says, most important is time allocation. That 3 hrs will FLY by
