Hi Sandy<BR><BR>Have yu managed to get a hold off todays PEV exam yet??????? Ewwww very formula in section 1 but one thing i have learnt now is that you can never be prepared fully for section 2 of PEV exams!!!!! The ratios were ok but I feel it was kinda like doing basic DFS to a revsied P&L!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I have not yet seen the paper. If I can get a copy I will post my answers on the website.<BR><BR>I only know of the questions from emails I have received<BR><BR>Don't worry about what happened in the exam now, that's the examiner's problem. I'm glad I don't have 100s of papers coming to me for marking, it's a tedious task.<BR><BR>What I can say to reassure you is that the examiner is interested in more than just your assessment and if he has popped a new topic in this one, then that could be as a warning for future exams. When this happens, there may be poor responses this time, and if there is his a;llocation of marks to the question will be low.<BR><BR>So if the question that you didn't like had hardly any marks then your chances of passing are not likely to be affected very much.<BR><BR>If you have some more exams, I hope they go well. If not, have a bit of fun, your hours of revising deserve a reward<BR><BR>Sandy

    Sandy<BR>We all want to say a big THANK YOU for coming up to Essex and teaching us<BR>We all found that the exam went really well in the first section and had a funny turn in the second one. But everyone blew into imaginery brown paper bags and got on with it. I could see Gemma doing the blowing into her fist bit at one point, I nearly got a fit of the giggles and she saw me and started sniggering too. <BR>It actually helped cos then we got down to the question and did our best<BR><BR>were off to the pub now so I'll try to email you later<BR>Thanks from all of us

    Thanks Sandy<BR><BR>Exam papers are always that much easier whilst sitting at my kitchen table... hee hee. Coming away from the exam I now am starting the wheels in motion of what happened!!!!!! I waffled on so much the poor marker marking my paper!!!! I try not too but the waffle just flows on out!!! Woops Section 2 just seemed so foreign, but I am sure everyone got through it some way or another. Teh rations were there in full force however they threw in the labour capacity ratio again which I did capacoty hours (in extra questions) divided by budgeted hours x 100 however on Factory B I got over 100%, oh dear could that be right!!!!

    Roxy<BR>Of course you can have ratios over 100%<BR><BR>If it is a capacity ratio all you need is more hours worked than budgeted and you'll be bound to have over 100%<BR><BR>Sandy<BR><BR>PS do you have the paper?<BR>If so please could you scan it and pop it over to me as an attachment?<BR><BR>Thanks<BR>sandy.hood@chichester.ac.uk<BR><BR>

    Sandy. Where did they get Q2.from? I sat and passed DFS in June and didnt expect a P&L acc in this exam. Its not come up on the coursework for this section and hasnt in the past papers ive been revising. Suppose its a bit early but do you have the Q&As for this, the question paper would do? Did you expect a question like that in the PEV exam?<BR><BR>Thanks

    Sandy - you sound like a knowledgeable person, did you ever receive the PEV paper form 29th Nov ? If so what is the answer to section 2 !
