    You added on the car costs for July didn't you? I think it starts in August.

    Flew through Household Budget (REGRET IT NOW) maybe only 10 minutes with just one minor mistake

    Flew through Club Account

    Question 3 was TOO EASY

    Question 5 was rather easy also



    Done all this by 11 o'clock and was the last one in the exam centre ... Was about to leave and said whats the point


    Then did question 4 pretty easy too ... Letter about 1 page short questions then in (B) were fine

    Then had 30 mins left did Q6. Superintndent probably getting really annoyed at this stage only having to look after me for the last hour

    Four quick terms, three responsibilities, IT Skills (took me a while) and Gross Wage was easy as pie


    Messed up Q1 and Q2 which I am usually good at
    Done really well in Q3-Q6 which I am usually really bad at

    Overall delighted

    I got €1029 for the Household Budget I think, I thought it was right because both figures were matching at the end of it, then again, My teacher never told us how to verify the right answer :P

    You probably made a similar mistake to mine ... Mine balanced but was wrong as did yours ... You more than likely made the same mistake twice and they probably cancelled each other making it balance ...

    I did Q. 1,2,5 and 6.

    It was easy enough, although I found the short questions hard. I had spare time in the end, about 30 mins.

    Omg me too! I don't think I've ever actually balanced an account properly (even though I know how to do the questions). I was delighted with myself!

    Business was so easy! My second worst subject. ^^

    being honest

    Paper I was easy enough..but a challenge...easy marks all round..forget q1 (b) though ;(

    Paper II was a bit more challenging..too many accounts i think..and no People AT WORK!:(

    Agreed,
    I could only do 4 of them on paper 2 due to the time restriction on the ledger (had to re-do it from scratch)..but yes. compared to other years, especially short question wise, this was 'piss'.
