CAT T7 Exam results out
Well it seems that the results for T7 is finally out, and the prayers that were done have paid out. Most of the students did pass the papers, I suppose, since I only got feedback from those that passed. I was surprised that the T7 for the re-sit batch also managed to get thru the paper without too much damage. I will have to wait and see for the results from ACCA.
Congratulations for those that did get thru the paper. The highest in the class for G1 is Yee Mun scoring 97, but the highest in the Sunwaytes is 100.
I suppose the results was kinda of a surprise since most of thë "barred" students also managed to pass in the last stroke. I belief that the Mock and PT papers were too hard for CAT level, more of F5 level. That is why you get a much higher mark at the final exam.
But you guys proved my hunch right, there was always the G1 spirit in you all to fight hard and smart. Quote from the previous blog
"Well I decided against that advice because I belief that you are capable of making it, so for those that failed, all I can say is not to make me lose faith in you, and not to make the predictions of the others come true......that you were not worthy"
Looks like I didn't need to loose any faith at all.

Now that the results have been released, hopefully it was good news. If there was bad news it was for T4 if I am not mistaken.
Those that have managed to sales across the deep ends of the T3456 water now come into the T789 waters. Looking at the following information you should now decide your study strategy, since all good auditors plan their work before embarking on the audit, you have to plan your work before facing the examiners test.
Now if you look at the analysis I have done, the red is danger zone whereas the green is safe zone, in audit terms High risk papers and Low risk papers.
This was confirmed by internal statistics for Sunway, which mirrors that results above by with higher rates.
Now you understand the waters that you are sailing into, so as to avoid the dangers in the waters of ACCA, else you end up like

PAPER 7 HOW TO PREPARE FOR FINAL EXAMS
The paper has been completed and now it is up to you to finish up the job. I was quite disappointed with the performance in MOCK, and now considering if I should have followed the advice of another lecturer who recommended to bar all the students that under performed.
Well I decided against that advice because I belief that you are capable of making it, so for those that failed, all I can say is not to make me lose faith in you, and not to make the predictions of the others come true......that you were not worthy.
I hope you seriously look at the paper and tell me why you failed so miserably and give me the assurance that you will do your best to achieve the pass mark.
NOW for those that need to know how to study for the paper
1. Cover all the PT 1, PT2 and MOCK questions in detail.
2. Cover the areas from EDC and EFC
3. Try out all the past papers from t7 without looking at the answers and see what is going wrong
4. Read up the short notes
Cycle back to the top
You will need to do some memory work - advantages and disadvantages

The marks for PT2 is listed above as a reminder for you to take action.As you all know that the answers for PT 2 has already been discussed, you should be aware that most of you made a lot of careless mistakes that could have been avoided by proper preparation.
Now you should have completed the question pack practise question as fast a possible.
You should have also started planning for the final battle with Steve Jays Beast.
Even though things look bleak and time is against you, I would not have labelled this blog Fantastic Management Accountants if I did not believe that you could be called fantastic. Remember that I started this blog even before the results were out, and look at the P3, P4 and P5 results that were generated by your combined effort.
Its time for you as a group to show the rest what you guys are made up of. Its time for you all to start looking at your own self and decide that you are made for success and not some kind of failure.
If you look at the above results, remember that it was 10x harder and you still managed to survive a battle.
SYNERGY is what you should be looking for, speed up the learning process, you are not competing against each other, but against other groups and the WORLD itself. Look for a partner, 4 if can, and set a clear goal that each of you will not let the other fall behind.
You can do it if you put your mind - victory is for those who want it the most
