    Hey Vaioer,

    Just copped I had these in e-mail form - repeating from last year!

    Enjoy :)

    Just finished the Flexum case study. The 4th indicator is absolutely bloody ridiculous! I picked up the 3 obvious indicators and wrote short notes on 2 subjects that I thought could have been the 4th indicator...

    Please tell me nobody got that indicator first time around? Who writes a bloody file note to themselves about the ethical considerations about a job that they MIGHT be offered? That's really annoyed me now!!

    Colts - totally agree flipping nightmare.

    Just seeing that you have just done this one - where are they getting the 25,760 total Design Hours from - is my brain broken? Probably a stupid question......

    Thanks

    The €25,760 is basically 1,840 hours *1.4 times (as they work 40% more than scheduled) x 10 staff. Hope this helps.

    Is there any value in looking at the sample papers seen as their outdated now and were written well before the new FAE commenced? Any thoughts, much appreciated.

    Quick questions, last year we were told that it would be handy to know information on certain industries that might come up..

    Anyone no were ye given a list of possible industries this year... or was this even mentioned before?


  • Registered Users Posts: 32 lisa39


    Is anyone else dreading the thought of having to sit down and write for 4.5 hours?!? Well read for .5 and write for 4?!

    I still haven't managed to do it.

    Attention span of a goldfish...... and a similar memory too!

    Just attempted the Core Comp from last year's exam.

    I stopped halfway through due to sheer boredom and the thoughts of actually continuing on with it. Hope i'll be able to muster up motivation in the main exam.

    Yeah I did that too and what I had done was completely different to what they wanted, I really thought I was going to lose it.

    Cassi just sent around an email asking for exam feedback, stating that the survey will close on Monday. When you open the link it start by congratulating you on finishing your exam week.

    Glad to see they're on the ball!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23 the_big_dawg


    Whats the crack with another survey and when u open it it says congrats on makin it thru ur exam week- we haven't even done them yet and the closing date is this Monday. Just proves Acassi is just as incompetent as the institute!

    Just came on to post the same. Glad to see they really have our interests at heart. similar to the institutes survey a few weeks ago!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 64 ✭✭PB1982


    Hey Guys,

    Just wondering if anybody who did the revision course with the institute can help me. I'm looking for the core auditing lecture in the streaming section but can't seem to see it? Anybody know if it's there at all?

    Thanks in advance.

    Have you done the Flexum question - try that at least it gives you a layout to follow should it come up. Although it says in the solutions that the sentences with * are the key sentences they are looking for - I claerly would have failed it. Wayyy too specific.
