    I notice there doesn't appear to be any dedicated CAP 2 thread on here.

    I'm currently sitting the CAP2 exams.

    The topics for the Audit interim assessment have come out recently

    The shortlist of Financial Statements areas for the CAP2 Audit and Assurance Interim Assessment taking place on Saturday 6 April are as follows:

    1. Inventories
    2. Property, plant and equipment
    3. Trade and other payables
    4. Revenue

    Does this mean that Ethics and other topics aren't coming up at all, or can Ethics come up on any interim exam?

    Ethics can (and likely will) still come up.

    Those areas are just the specific elements of the financial statements that can come up.

    Does anyone know if the exam prep days are worth going to?
    I live 4 hours away from Galway which is where I’m enrolled and I’m just wondering is it worth it to go to them all?

    I had a similar trip time to Dublin so I skipped as many classes as I could.

    It depends on yourself. If you understand the fundamentals and have the discipline to sit and go through material and past papers then I'd argue you'd be better off using that 7-8 hours studying than travelling.

    Has anyone else just sat the CAP2 exams and feel they went as disastrous as I think they did? So disappointed.

    Yeah I’m actually devastated.
    What did you think of them all so far?
    I came out of every single one & added up potential marks I may of got and don’t think I’ll have passed.
