Test seems to be normal but the Gen Knowledge was of wide scope. However overall test was fairly good enough to judge the sound knowledge of core subjects of the professional qualification.

Well best of luck to all the candidates who appeared in the test.
Keep the fingers crossed for interviews P

As far as I know. AFF's (Lahore) test consists of 1 Part with numerical and logical reasoning MCQs and the 2nd part consists of 2 Essays. A total of 3 hrs test.

This was the test that my friends gave in their session. I gave in my session and what the AFF's senior manager confirmed in ACCA's talent gymnasium on 18 Oct 2011.

I dont know how ppl post these test.
