I’m so happy to have passed with 56 in my third attempt. I found AA was quite a hard one to pass. Next one is FM which I feel is going to be even harder than this.

Failed with 49% resit. I thought I did enough for a pass this time after getting 48% in my first attempt. I don’t know what to do!

For section C questions I got a 16 mark consolidated profit and loss and other comprehensive income statement plus a 4 mark question on how would an associate be recorded in SOFP. For the analysis and interpretation question part a was calculating 6 ratios for 2 potential subsidiaries worth 7 marks plus the bigger part asking to comment the performance and position of the companies and which investment would be the better one.
I answered both questions in section C although could’ve added more comments on the analysis part.
Section A and B questions were very difficult, the type of questions were very different to the past and practice exam papers. There were quite a few questions with two correct answers. There were some consolidation questions but I didn’t understand which standards were covered in section B. I think I guessed half of the MCQs.
I just wish the section A and B questions were similar to the past exam papers.
I think I have done enough to get a pass but it’s hard to say

Sadly I failed with 48%. Hard to accept it but can do nothing about it so have to move on and retake

Passed with 53% on my second attempt. Thanks opentution.

I thought the exam was an easy one if you had prepared well enough. It was a resit exam for me after I failed (by 1 mark) in June. I have to say this exam was much better and less complicated than the June’s exam, particularly for Section C questions. I think I have done enough to just get a pass but you never know. I got stuck badly on the CT question in Section C as I run out of time and didn’t really answer it properly. Some of the Section A questions were tricky and had to take a guess but I have also made some silly mistakes. Section B questions were ok and as expected. The other Section C questions on income tax and NICs as also ok.

It’s a hard one to take but I know I didn’t do my best in the exam as I ran out of time and didn’t prepare very well. Like you said it’s about making changes to your preparation and exam technique which will help you to pass the resit exam. I will prepare better and change my exam technique for next time.

Just missed on a pass – got 49%. So close and yet so far. I will resit in September. Well done to all of you who have passed
