I am taking my final two exams tomorrow and Friday for PCR and PTC. I am fairly confident about the personal tax but dreading the budgeting paper as I missed the paper in June and haven't studied it since April-May time. Thankfully the PCR is quite straight forward.

What do you feel has been the hardest unit for yourself? I think the DFS was the hardest and god only knows how I passed that one last December!!!

    PEV

    I hate PEV with a passion. I just hope I've passed it this time 'cause there's no way its staying in my head until next June.

    I much prefer the financial accounting side, but saying that I've still got DFS to do next June so I may have changed my mind about that.

    Don't much like the project either. It's not difficult its just trying to find the time to do it and it slowly drives you bonkers.

    Personally I found the tax papers the most nerve racking as I don't really touch tax at work at all.
    I quite enjoy the management accounting papers as I find them more interesting so I probably found those the easiest.
    I know talking to people at college a lot depends on where you work. For instance, I work in a small practice and therefore get a chance to work in a wide variety of situations, but those who work in either large firms or industry tend to get less chance to experience such a wide scope.

    Indeed! I started the project in June 04 and only had it signed off this week - lol. I just never could be asked with it :-o

    The PEV does kinda suck but at least with the financial and the costing papers ratios appear so the more you do them the more they stick. I think doing the DFS first made the PEV easier for me. If it was the other way around I perhaps would have felt the same way as you.

    I'm taking PCR and PTC too. I am dreading PCR tomorrow. I struggled with ECR last year - it was a miracle i passed!

    I'm OK with PTC - just lots to remember.

    Good Luck everyone for tomorrow!
