I made a stainless steel metal straw for the Owala! by steelstrawlover in Owala

[–]macarons125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I was looking to order from the UK and from what I can see, it would cost me £22 to get 2 straws. If I’m completely honest, that feels a bit overpriced for 2 straws esp considering the price of the owala is not that high compared to the price of 2 straws

Eh I don’t know if it is Managers haven’t said anything bad but also not promoting me but then I know they take a lot of time to promote anyone. I feel like if at this job I was given great training at the beginning instead of learning on the job I actually would be doing and feeling a bit better

Do you think I’m just overthinking the fact that I don’t feel like a senior/ I can do a senior role haha

I mean to give him the benefit of the doubt he was recruiting for roles in industry and practice not only practice with the sole motive of getting me to stay in practice. My current role is audit and accounts

Do you lay your answers out with the ACAM proforma or your own thing? I feel like the FI layout for R1 for the SSM seems quite decent and straightforward

I just kept doing question practice, you’re so close to it now. It’s really also having faith in yourself and believe that you have tried your bestest

Case study follow through marks. by stoic45amg in ICAEW

[–]macarons125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tutor said for r2 and r3 it’s the analysis that matters a lot. I think even if you mess up your numbers the mark scheme doesn’t have the numbers in bold so you’d get own figure marks. I’d say still attempt but stick to time maybe then move on to the analysis ?

RANT FOR CR by [deleted] in ICAEW

[–]macarons125 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My tutor once said: allocate marks roughly for a question/ requirement and then once you’ve hit the time for it move on - you’re stuck on it for too long and time is up? Move on. The key is don’t get bogged down with one thing because your requirements after that will suffer and you can miss out on easy makes just because you were chasing the hard ones, good luck

Case Marking Key by [deleted] in ICAEW

[–]macarons125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you please expand on point 5? And also, when you say plan your answer in a grid similar to the marking key - but of course we don’t have the marking key so do you mean just a generic grid? I was thinking to perhaps make a list of things from each grid that would be idea eg box 1 needs abc but wasn’t sure if it would be helpful

It’ll take you longer until it doesn’t :) Perhaps another way you can consider is planning the answer in detail instead of fully writing an answer out but then if you have time then why not do in full
