    Yes you should be okay, carry forward marks are usually in place on exams like these.<BR><BR>You will be fine <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"><BR>Im sure<BR><BR>You will only get penalised once for each mistake.

    No - you will not be penalised twice for a carry forward figure. This would be totally unfair.<BR><BR>Hope that makes you feel better.<BR>

    To put all your minds at rest, you WILL ne OK<BR><BR>If you make a mistake you are not penalised if you then carry forward that incorrect answer and trweat it correctly. This is a basic rule in marking any Accounting exam - not just AAT exams. You lose whatever marks were allocated to the figure that you initially got wrong, but then - aassuming that you work correctly with the incorrect figure - gain full marks for further tasks.<BR><BR>Stop worrying, its all over now. August 17th will reveal all<BR><BR>Graham Blott

    If you messed up on the whole exam but applied the correct method what happens guess you fail right?
