<br />Yeah my friend received a call around 6 30. No it is not true my friend who received the call is from intermediate background and has done matriculation. The thing is that as far as i can think the selection has been made on haphazard basis. complete mis management and no merit what so ever. As far as I know the shortlisting is done by partners which doesn't seems to be the case this time.

The test has 5 components

1. Financial Reporting THEORY
2. Financial accounting IASes
3. English ( IDIOMS AND ESSAY )
4. GK
5. Audit ISAs

Each section contains 10 marks and it is required to pass all the sections individually. Passing % is 50.

INFO GATHERED FROM A FRIEND

Can anyone tell when do they call for the 1st interview?? n when will the internship actually start?? (if selected ofcourse...)


- saad0090 - 03-24-2011

i think the test today was just a game of time managmnt and concepts!! too lengthy paper in too little tym, i dnt think any1 wud be able to atempt 100% paper wid gud answers!
and the disturbing factor was that one has to pass in all 5 sections! i think there will be hardly few ppl 2 pass all 5 sections!


- Dard - 03-24-2011

50 marks, 1.5 hrs time? That's reasonable.
Saad can you please tell us the specific questions that were asked?


- kashif_0014 - 03-24-2011

i left almost whole of GK..and some part of englishh...
but rest of the test was bang on target..wrote a vry good essay wid huge details..
wot are the chances of being called by EY?

@arsalan If u really think that they hire on the basis of good educational background and extra curricular activities than how can they call a guy who has not even cleared f8(search this topic that guy has posted on this forum). Secondly for your info i am an ACCA affiliate in a period of 2 years & 3 months and have passed all my papers first time except p3 which i failed once and have been a consistently good student throughout my life. My average ACCA score has been 67. I also hold a certificate of achievement awarded to me by ACCA for scoring 96% in f2. I have been an A grader all my life and on top of that I am a certified computer technician. I beleive that to be a "good" educational record.

And secondly i have cleared p4 and p7 in my options.
