I thought it was ok.
I did q 2 and 4.
Is deontological the same thing as absolutism?
December 9, 2015 at 4:22 pm #289712I should have done Q4 instead of Q3. I would lost the marks of Deontological explanation, but would gain the other marks.
Anyone noticed that requirements 2 and 3 of Q3 were too similar?
December 9, 2015 at 4:22 pm #289713not really
deon explains that the person cared about the process of the action rather than the opposite(consequence)
absolutism says in the action, only got one set of morals to determine its right or wrong

Yes it is. In the same way Teleology is similar to Relativism
Is deontological the same thing as absolutism?
December 9, 2015 at 4:27 pm #289716I found it quite time pressured, Q3 on risks seemed hard.
December 9, 2015 at 4:40 pm #289736in this paper was so hard,,,,,,,,
December 9, 2015 at 4:41 pm #289739yes, very much time pressured, keep feeling like I was ahead and that was rushing, then in the end did not quite finish the question I was on (the end of Q1 that I left till last).
Hopefully done enough, Q2 did not look straightforward at all for did Q3 & 4.
December 9, 2015 at 5:08 pm #289772Q 1.
Difference between unitary and two tier board system. Disadvantages of two tier system.
Easy one.Roles of risk committee.
Wrote something something…..Draft article to magazine. Carries 20 marks.
My goodness, I wrote so poorly.Q2.
Integrated reporting.Case explains advantages of integrated reporting and still they asked what are advantages of adopting IR.
Somi just copied from the case . will I get mark for that.Explain six capital and explain relation between them.
Forgot what are capitals. Wrote something.
Q3.
Risk assessment.
First reading I didn’t understand what they are asking so I left that.Q4.
Ethics
Difference between relativism and absolutism.
Difference between deontological and teleogicalHow bribery impairs trust?
Measures to prevent bribery.Some were deep questions. Overall questions were okay.
If questions are easier than these how it can be professional exam?December 9, 2015 at 5:23 pm #289789@robertj said:

Is deontological the same thing as absolutism?
Absolutism is a belief or a theory that one moral set of rule can be applied to all.
Deontology is an approach to ethical stance. Duty based approach.
December 9, 2015 at 5:33 pm #289800Overall it is good. Regarding time as compared to p2 it has lot time to do all the three question. Q1 seems ok except the article. Q2 IR and related questions are fair. I did not remember q3. Q4 ethical theories not bad. If I failed this paper, I will stop ACCA. those of you who sat the tomorrow and Friday GOOD LUCK! !

December 9, 2015 at 5:58 pm #289824I did q1 q2 and q4 and mentioned pristine capitalist in all of them
B-)December 9, 2015 at 6:21 pm #289849P1 is interesting subject. This is my second time. If I fail I will write again in June. P1 changed my life. Taught me to face fear and weakness in my life. I am very poor in memorizing theory. Yet I take it as challenging. P3 and p1 I suffer most. But my perspective changed. If I fail definitely I will study again and run the race again. No quitting.
I choose q2 . I regret I should have attempted q3 instead.
Deontological approach I forgot to mention the word duty instead I wrote motivation. Mistakes I wrote a lot.Every topic is important and we should be ready to face a scenario based on that topic. Ready to explain deep. Should remember all points. I should byheart all bullet point answers.
December 9, 2015 at 6:21 pm #289850Yet again I ran out of time. Can’t seem to get enough done for Q1 to move on when time runs out. It’s really annoying as I know the theory but struggle to relate it to the case. Feel like giving up. ?
December 9, 2015 at 6:23 pm #289854what was the article about ? confusing answer i could not found any point to give heading jut wrote about…
December 9, 2015 at 6:24 pm #289855Its frustrating but you may have done better than you think
December 9, 2015 at 6:26 pm #289859its very fair paper ,easy one i must say ,
examiner donot asked any thing unusual ,its just matter of practice before exam and ability to apply theory in the scenario ,,i lack both ,so i am 50-50 about result.

December 9, 2015 at 7:48 pm #289926Found corruption bit abit tough and also the question on Risk. Not many points to write.
I would like to get this clear. Are we journalist? Why are we told to write an article. Most of us do not know and English is not our first language
December 9, 2015 at 7:54 pm #289928I found the capitals by accident
Social
Intellectual
Human
Financial
Manufactured
