Hi,
I have a quick question regarding the number of examples required in an exam. If for example we have been asked to identify five audit procedures, is it acceptable to give more than five examples? Thus increasing the chances of getting all five marks, albeit, wasting extra time. Or will the examiner just mark the first five procedures given (as they do in other exams such as GCSE’s) and ignore any subsequent answers.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
They say they mark the best 5. However, as you say giving more wastes time. It is irritating for markers because they have to read more and they think you are fool who can’t read the requirements.. Better to stick to what you are asked for.
Thank you for your help much appreciated.
