TXJune ’10 Exams POLL – Paper F6 was … Post your comments here

Paper was very tough and different from the past exam themes.
Partnership, Property income and adjusting losses were the theme.
I hope to get 50marks. . .

paper was very hard....different format...all assessed at once....!!!:S Hope for 50 too

Yeh so different from the past papers! No income tax computation :( questions were in a weird order. New poll on who thought the paper was fair?

that examiner is malicious how could he do that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

awful.. Q3 and 4 were the worst in my opinion. and Q2 was strange too!

i guess the examiner was drunk while writing the paper..
wth! this paper was so different!! :S

q3 and q4 were the toughest..
q1 and q2 were very lengthy.. and 3-4 were allocated to the questions that required a detailed working!

3-4 marks were allocated .... ... ****

Awful .... It is not fair to prepare such exams !!!!

what the hell was paper today? it was lengthy and too tough even i did 80% revision kit and still find difficult paper, what the examiner thought?

Seriously i don't know what to think..this papaer made me :S i think you will all agree with me that ALL chapters were examined in that paper...

what the hell, there was VAT pratically in most questions....

the papaer had abt 40% theory....wth!….hoping for a 50% and i hoped a 90 before i sat… it wud be a shame if i got less than 50

paper had terms never seen before, what is "business rates"

and what was all these motor cars?? Oh my god we got the full lot.

yeah!!! 35-40 marks on vat and self assesmnt!!! vry unusual!!
bt othr questionz on partnrshp, property income and capital gain wer vry simple i guess!!

paper was ...... i dont have any word to say .i have done 100% kit questions two times butt still can not say that i will pass surely.
but still hope for 50

motor cars were confusing 5 motor cars!!!!!
2 pvt used cars
1 car no wda cuz of disposal

I'm glad that it seems I'm not the only person that found it dificult. I did the whole of the exam kit, and was aiming for 70+ based on passed papers. Properly nasty paper, I'll be happy with a pass, but wanted high marks for the degree offered. Nefarious examiner, probably reacting to the state of GCSEs.

I don't understant.. Q1 sales were 142,200 and VAT was 21600 how it comes ppl?

Very very tough paper

It is probably mixture of 15% and 17.5%

When I opened the paper I had to check the cover 3 times to see if it actually said P6 Advanced Taxation...

There was way more the 10% allocated to VAT, more theory and very strange layouts. I did all the revision questions on here and the BPP revision kit and I will be lucky if I get 50 for this paper. How very very mean of him!!

Anyone who get 50% would be granted as CHARTERED CERTIFIED ACCOUNTANT by ACCA .. Very Very unfair exam, examiner must think that student is a leaner not a Professional ACCA accountant

Question 1 was very confusing...i read the question again and again....!!!

i'm not even sure about the treatment i made for the motor car..:S

question 2 was ok - but very time consuming/confusing for the last part...

3 OMG -

4 kinda ok -

5- not bad - last part unanswered....

to summarize ive written a lot..its either all is ok or..hell December 2010 hereee i ammmm...

very though paper it was.
it is horrible
changed theme.
allah pass kara dei

just wondering...after that paper do you think we should consider starting tuitiion and working on F6 as from July or wait for result?

Admin...I gathered that Yvonne would not sit the exam...but I am thinking she may have seen the paper.

All tutors will only see the exam when ACCA publishes it on the site,

The tax evasion/tax avoidance question was kinda funny.

As a trainee Chartered Certified Accountant, what are you expected to do when your boss/client hides his Capital gain from HMRC and they didn't notice.,..
