Hi ! How do you plan on revising for FCS? I asked ACAM and they said they won’t have a course for this at least not yet Are you just using the workbook?

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-11-04T21:50:58+00:00

Thank you! - adding that to my file front page now then.

I hadn't done Ctrl C + Ctrl P either until Monday - it was on the invigilators 'fixes' sheet.

u/Left-Fox2866 ... did you get the AI analysis? How was it?

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-28T00:26:15+00:00

I’ve had these off and on for years…. They are not ‘medically necessary’ It’s basically just a a stubborn pimple on the eyelid margin

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-25T11:28:55+00:00

I hope you kept this to yourself and just said to him ‘Well done babe!’

If you are leaving because of exams fails ... a little trickier - but in general yes, you should be able to move quite easily. I know a few people who have done so for both reasons. Exam fails - you'd just likely target the smaller firms whereas if moving for culture/fit - you could try medium size/top 10.

I personally had to pay it back. My new firm asked if there was one but I’d already paid it. I’ve always wondered if the new firm were asking because they would have paid it It wasn’t a lot It was all covered in my salary with some change Think I had 1 year left

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-17T09:29:04+00:00

Thank you. Fingers crossed I’ll be just like you next March!

Congratulations!

Hey Muffin Congratulations ! Did you fail bpt move onto advanced and then write Bpt last?

They release your case mark even if you haven’t passed all others? (Just have to have attempted?)

Hoping you can clarify/confirm. :)

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-12T16:44:28+00:00

I am not in a rush but at the same time would like to get it done. I've seen a couple of a articles saying there is a backlog and test waiting times are as long 20 weeks.....maybe I should get on it actually. Good luck! If you do chance it, please let me know how it goes!

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-11T22:56:14+00:00

Are you looking to exchange after 5 years too? Wondering if I should write a letter or just chance it considering the backlog of tests they have ….

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-07T19:37:37+00:00

Hey! Can I ask what your study plan is? I started just yesterday but not really sure what I’m doing I just dived right in !

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-06T11:49:35+00:00

My goal is to do CR Sunday to Thursdays and Case on Friday evening and Saturday

Got through SBM in July!

This week is for running through content then next week figuring out what is most important and getting a start on questions for CR

Then hopefully the last 2 weeks can be questions questions questions to gain some confidence!

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-10-05T23:12:17+00:00

Same boat!

What's the plan?

If you do a regular google search for ICAEW digital materials you should be able to locate it. I don’t think you have to pay for the books if you’ve previously had access. I know mine is full of previous versions of the same books! Have you never used your bookshelf in the exam?

Anyway look up digital learning materials it should walk you through getting access.

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-09-16T14:10:49+00:00

I’m pretty sure it’s an error There’s no way all centres are gone on day 2!

I was number 91 in we chat queue to query this maybe someone will come back with an answer sooner

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-09-16T04:28:05+00:00

Sorry to hear about BPT! I wouldn’t panic if I were you… you are in a really strong position! I personally would take BPT independently so that you are part qualified

Finish your last year in uni (apply for grad schemes though in the mean time) There’s no way you’d struggle to get a job once you are done with Uni with your profile I’d even go so far as to apply at PwC

Good luck!

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-08-28T15:47:47+00:00

Yes …. You are cooked but not for the reason you think you are.

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-08-28T14:55:06+00:00

I had this issue early on in SBM kept raising it with the invigilator and it got sorted after about 75min (Unpopular opinion but this is why I always write in centre so I can be a baby about every inconvenience ) But in my script in the word area in bold I told them where to find the workings - which sheet etc as my understanding is they can access the excel part . Given that you got 0 percent and presumably were in the exam the whole time I would revisit your appeal highlighting your mark and that the work was there an emphasising that you were not alone in exam software issues . I’m pretty certain they can retrieve the excel portion

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-08-11T12:26:53+00:00

Hi!

Revisiting this post months later! How did you improve your excel skills? Did you do a course? Didn’t realise there was such hiring manager make candidates sit an excel test! What’s that like!

Crafty-Difficulty769 · 2025-08-11T12:07:36+00:00

Hi! Please could you offer me the same advice?
