    Hello,

    I have cover whole syllabus of F8 I use BPP book + OT lectures +BPP kit.

    I am half way through my kit and have completed around 70 questions already.Whenever I compare my answer to the BBP kit answers it had almost same TOCs, Substantive test and point, around 60% of the my points were similar to the kit.

    My question is: Am I missing something that I need to worry about?I have no experience in audit and I have heard people do not pass this exam easily.

    Please share if someone had same feel toward F8 but still failed.

    Thank you

    Its great that you find it easy.

    I sat when i first sat this paper i found all five questions easy and was very sure i passed especially after i saw the published answer and saw that it all the points that i identified were the ones the examiner identified i was sure that i passed. when the results came out i got 48. basically i failed because while all my points are valid the terms used to express them werent what they were looking for.

    there are technical articles that explain to you how the paper is marked why saying something my get you 1 mark/.5 marks or 0. read those and see if your written answers compare with the examiners taking into account word usage.
