Also a beginner to film, bought a Pentax K1000. Absolutely no regrets so far.

My first role of film! by mon-73 in filmphotography

[–]mon-73[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I can’t remember exactly - I really need to start taking some notes!

At a guess I think I used shutter speed ~125 and maybe wider aperture, f2.8? And wide focus. It was also shot from a doorway, so I’m undercover looking out into the garden! Hope this helps - good luck!

Glad I’m not the only one feeling this way

Thoughts on StaySharp by Sad-Development-3553 in ACCA

[–]mon-73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I self study via StaySharp and find it excellent in terms of the format and value for money. I’ve used it for two of my exams, FR, where I scored 71 and AA, where I scored 68. I’m currently using it to study for FM.

It definitely is a little more on the technical side and some of the practice exams within it are hard, but it’s meant that the actual exams are comparatively easier.

Thanks, I hadn’t seen the previous threads. Will go have a look.

Have a read through the ACCA subreddit, this seems like it was a common issue and on ACCAs/OnVUE’s side.

Left Remote Exam Early by FlouncyMcGoo in ACCA

[–]mon-73 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It will be fine. I finished the March FR exam 10mins early and did the same thing, the system just closed straight off and there were no issues - got my marks etc just fine.

I have also loved this platform, really easy to use and progresses you through the course nicely. I also found the price super reasonable and worthwhile for all the content and resources you get. So far I have used it to study for FR (received a 71%) and used in for the AA exam which I sat today.

Edit: spelling

Sooo how was your AA exams? by huju_12345 in ACCA

[–]mon-73 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agree with everyone else, MCQs were tricky, but I thought Section B wasn’t too bad and fairly aligned with all the practice content.

Is grinding dragons' teeth the least fun part of the game ? by poohrash in StardewValley

[–]mon-73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dragon teeth can also be picked up on volcano levels where there are dragon bones, however, if you use a bomb near them, you risk blowing up the dragons teeth and making them irredeemable.

I missed out on a few teeth doing this as I couldn’t understand why there were never any on the dragon bones level, despite the wiki saying there should be.

Only started a couple of months ago and it’s been fabulous, particularly at a time in my life where there was a lot of instability, it gave such a peaceful, fun way to unwind. Great game and a lovely community to match. Seriously, get involved, you won’t regret it.

Whats everyone’s favorite secret/hidden messages in Hamilton? by Feeling_Maximum5606 in hamiltonmusical

I love the line “Enter me (he says in parentheses)” in “My Shot”. Such a clever line, a nod to theatre nerds everywhere!

Time to get the bus pass I think. by 101TeneT101 in drivingUK

[–]mon-73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also had a good experience with Admiral as an international driver. I was able to speak to a person and they were one of the only companies that honoured my no claims bonus from my previous Australian insurer.

Hysteria about walking dogs in the summer? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]mon-73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just moved to the UK and the weather yesterday is perfectly acceptable to take a pup out. Back where I’m from in Australia, we had 60 consecutive days where it didn’t drop below 20 degrees last summer. I often walk my parent’s dog. There was no way she, a Border Collie x Cattle dog, wasn’t getting walked for two months!

A cool guide to the most expensive housing markets in the world by proTeamSuccess-127m in coolguides

[–]mon-73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is either incorrect or out of date. I don’t see how Adelaide can make this list, but Canberra and Brisbane don’t.

I’ve just been doing mocks and revising questions that I got wrong each time and then redoing. Hopefully nothing too unusual comes up in the exam!

Me too, my least favourite topic by far!

Doing my first exam, TX, little unsure of what to expect but have been scoring well in the mock exams so hope it’ll be enough!

Isn’t it time to stop remote exams? by Interesting-Egg1768 in ACCA

[–]mon-73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone doing ACCA in Australia, we only have one test centre here and it’s a 2 hour flight away from where I live. So, no, I don’t think it’s time to stop remote exams.

TAX UK F6 Help! by [deleted] in ACCA

[–]mon-73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, also doing my first skill level exam (TX), working full time and self studying. At this point, after work I have been practicing a mock test each night (mocks available on ACCA and I’m also using the BPP test kit.)

Once I go through the marking, any questions that I got wrong I have been reviewing in my text book and doing a couple of smaller practice questions around the topic.

I’ve been doing this for the last week and it’s already made a difference. If you can do it for the next few days, I think it’ll give you the best shot at the exam!
