    Hi guys!

    how did you find the exam this month? I’m a bit concern about mine and there’s a big chance that I will retake it. How did you guys do?

    The exams wasn’t at all difficult but I wasted 2hrs answering just 2 questions in detail, and had to rush the rest of it. I’m def re-sitting the exams. I have to start practicing on my time keeping skills.

    The answers to past questions are so well written, was trying to perform at that level.

    big F for me was down to the last question, i did not even get to attempt question 6 which will be to my detriment.

    I also spent a lot of time on the first two questions, my time keeping was well off. I was making procedures up as i go along it literally got to that point i was ready to throw in the towel.

    This F8 had to be the worst i have ever done the questions presented ie audit risk, corporate governance, subsequent events for one moment i thought i was doing a professional paper most of the common questions in the syllabus were rolled into march’s F8 exam paper that was a suicidal paper that can pull someone off the edge.

    Saying that it took me a while to settle into paper. A complete shambles for me ACCA did not hold anything back on this paper.

    I thought the exam was okay, I was rushing through the last question as i was running out of time. I feel I was writing a bit too much for explaining questions, like the materiality one and the procedures with respect to statements. But otherwise it was okay.
    Did anyone get a couple of C for multiple choice for 3-6.

    The MCQ was ok and Q1 and Q2. I lost track of time since I’ve used so much of my time in the first 3. Did anyone of you guys completed Q4? that was the downer for me. Attempted to answer all the questions but I ended up just writing anything that comes in my head – hoping that it makes sense…
    Time management is really my problem 🙁

    Anyone sitting F7 in June? or if anyone had finished F7, any tips will help 🙂 thanks in advance
