    Dear Tutor
    My question might sound ridiculous but I wanted to ask. Let’s say the examiner has specified 3 control deficiencies but I add another row and type the fourth one because I am not so sure about my answer. Just to be on the safer side.

    Will the marker consider the fourth deficency that I typed as she has explicitly told me not to do so in effect by asking only three deficiencies?

    If the examiner specifies a number it is clear from the examiner’s comments that that is what is expected/preferred but the marker will (has to) read if you write more.

    I presume you’ve looked at all my “sticky” posts (with “stars”) at the top of this forum and our other resources including this one https://opentuition.com/files/securepdfs/2019/09/ACCA-AA-Article-Answer-technique.pdf
