Sorry to hear about your disappointing result.

All topics are important, but the most important are:

Planning
Risk
Internal controls and tests of controls
Assertions
Substantive tests
Computer assisted audit techniques
Ethics
Audit reports

Actually, that's most of the syllabus!

Anyhow, make sure that in all your answers you:

Address the details given in the scenario
Write in as much detail as you can
Answer, precisely, the question that was set

There are some worked questions and quizzes on this site for you to have a look at.

Good luck in June.
