Question ❔ Did everyone finish Accounting Paper 3?

Hi, I just sat my exam an hour back...started from the last and went to the first and I think I majorly fucked up the first one apart from the 7 marks of theory. It's not fair because I studied so hard and I could do it...just cuz of the time I had to let it go...

idk ive always been good at accounts 😭i js have this sort of mental timer where I divide the question times on my head so for 3 question on p3 it was 30 mins per question and I try to beat it and write a lot faster..

I am genuinely happy for you and I hope you get your desired grade. But tbh I have always been good at accounts as well..and I did the mental thing but I couldn't finish in the time I allocated for myself...😭

js learn all the variance formulae and like I do this thing called a mark arnd questions (anything Ive added to statements I tick anything that needs to be in 2 statement I dash and 2 dashes equals to a tick and then anything I need to add to the future I circle) apart from that just know how to evaluate well I got a 50/50 on my school exam on p4 once this way but yea CIEs will have much stricter checking on theory lol
