I seriously think the examiner purposely wish to bombshell P6. The first seating is already 28% pass rate & second seating also around 30%. Then after much criticsm by local lecturers examiner go lenient & pass rate shoot up 40%. After evryone is happy again he pulled his tricks again. By doing what ?
1) Bringing back very very old & weird stuff like mining allowance (how many mining company in MYS mind you)
2) Sales & Service tax which are never tested for more than 10 seatings was brought back out of the blue.
3) Group relief which is a very small topic can be merged with other area so like a hybrid 3 in 1 question.
Tax syllabus is the biggest around, no doubt about that just check the text book. However things tested is quite average but since every area is so specific & each go their own formulaes makes it very stressful for students to remember. The examiner himself has also gone cucko banana a few times & have to rectify his mistake by giving bonus marks to student.

Just a very brief preview :
A x B/4C for unit trust to ascertain deductibe permitted expenses. A is a list of 10 expenses, B is gross inc of Div, Int & Rental & C is B + exp.....
So in exam you need to remember all this small detail. Not enough yet it has to be compared with 10% of A whichever is higher.

Compared to :
Investment holding company : A x B/4C but this time is compared 5% of A whichever is lower not higher. So if a student can remember all this small details in exam then can score.

Heard that P6 is the toughest paper to score even on international level.

Best of luck everyone. Hope you remember what you studied, understand what you learned, and the examined on what you know [COLOR=red]
