    Why is the “how the F7 exam was” topic is closed?!!!

    I am not sue if I will pass or I fail, I feel I have got the chance to pass and fail!!! Tried to write some stuff in Q4 and Q5 and I solved Q1, Q2 and Q3 but surely they contain errors, I am not sure how many errors I made, I am really hoping I will pass 🙁

    Better go now study for F8! O.o

    @Mahoysam ACCA has stopped all discussion forums to prevent from starting a discussion on exams until they’ve started everywhere in world, the time for that is 5GMT and i guess our time it’d be 10 pm. Did you manage to balance anything?

    I see. Well, I think this is good! I don’t want to hear about things and get even more confused!

    lol nope, but that’s okay because there are lots of adjustment and there has to be an error somewhere ! But the difference in the first question was small, I am hoping this is a good thing lol!

    I think this should be okay, they don’t mark the totals, they mark everything individually!

    To be honest I am not very sure I will pass but I also think that I can pass, I didn’t do so badly to the level that I am sure I will fail, but I also didn’t do very well! Can’t wait to see the results!

    All the luck to you!

    Got to go now, I have an exam tomorrow and after tomorrow!!!!

    This is exactly what I am scared of! I don’t want to fail for few marks, I could get a heart attack!!!! lol! and the problem is that if I fail then I am sure I will fail only for few marks because my performance was not a disaster in the exam!

    Good luck I hope you will pass this time 🙂

    As a student of mine said to another, when the other said “My balance sheet didn’t balance”, “It’s not meant to”!!!!

    Of course you’re going to make mistakes – we all do, all the time. What makes you think that your balance sheet should balance when there are thousands around the World with non-balancing balance sheets.

    You get credit for what you get right and you don’t get negative scores for the bits you get wrong

    Always look on the bright side ………
