    How did people feel the exams went:

    For me it was like this:

    I.T: Easily passed this, makes me wonder why it remains on the course. The Lecturer in Griffith College got everything spot on, her mock exam was a carbon copy of the actual exam.

    Fin.Accounting: Found it a tough paper, not my strongest subject anyway. Q1 part a Re: Convergence of IAS's wasn't anywhere to be found in the syllabus?? I took a risk not learning the Branch Accounts as our lecturer basically told us it never comes up. My heart dropped when i opened the paper. Looking dodgy if I passed it or not. My saving grace could be that I did a very good Q1 computation and learned the IAS's pretty well.

    Taxation: I did this in IATI so I lulled myself into a false sense of security. Mixed myself up on a few things and made the exam harder than it should have been. One of the questions was divided up into about 7/8 small value questions, made a mess of that!! I hope I passed it.

    Man. Accounting: I could be repeating this, if not I have the Cash Budget to thank. I must have done 20 Process questions at home but in the exam I went totally blank....made a mess of it. I marked my paper pretty harshly myself and got about 46%, hopefully the examiner marks it a bit easier.

    Overall the exams were a eye opener to me that I need to knuckle down and keep on top of my studies...
