    I have my diary up to Jan 18 - still need 101 days but ill try to that this week - very difficult - do you think that will have an impact on the results - worried sick ill be resitting and contemplating starting from scratch with a new subject - dont know if thats a good idea or not?
    Won't impact results. My diary hasn't been updated since Feb 17 so I've a lot to do :sideways:
    Not much point worrying until you get results. I'd contemplate starting with a new subject if I got <40%

    Def wont, I had my diary completed and I still failed!

    If I fail I'll have to change, as APM is going (won't have time to do it in Jan, I'll just be back from honeymoon :D)

    What would you change to? I've a very bad feeling about the results!!

    Just had a look at the new syllabus for Advisory, looks to pretty much be APM under a different name

    I hate the waiting. Its starting to get to me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31 LoLo86ACA


    Agreed the waiting is too long - worried sick don't know how much more of this I cant take - waiting on one exam and my whole life is just on hold until I know

    It's all I can think about also. Affecting my sleep and work to be honest. 
    Read the report of CASSI which was interesting

    I found it quiet good as 700+ of us filled it out and everyone seemed to have the same issues with the papers as I did

    Just read it. I'll be interesting to read the examiners comments on ours now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 nhickey07


    Reading CASSI's report now, echos my thoughts on the exams too so I'm glad to not be the only one anxious waiting!!

    Very distracted 2 weeks ahead

    Hey everyone,

    Just doing the FAE's this year after an extended absence.

    One question you might be able to answer. Does the institute provide the IFRS standards book to students anymore?

    I seem to remember the red IFRS book was provided in past years but this year all I got was the FRS 102 standard. Just thinking in terms of the AAFRP for example, the IFRS book will surely be needed for reference even in terms of the disclosure questions?

    Or am I missing something?

    Appreciate your responses on this.

    From my experience if they issued you with the book once before they dont issue again. If you get in touch with the text book department they will issue you one if they have any spares. I got the updated tax books that way and was lucky not to pay because they had one left over.
