    Is it acceptable to use bullet points for answering F8 questions, especially the list and explain type? I have used this appoach for other non ACCA Auditing Exams to avoid waffling and it has saved me well. Please help

    There’s nothing wring with the bullets themselves; it’s what comes after the bullet that’s a problem as often only one or two words are used to explain issues and that is inadequate.

    If you have to explain something (eg a control weakness) you won’t usually be able to do that properly in less than a couple of sentences.
