Damn true!!! It will be the life saver for most of us! 

Paper ws tricky, i mean we can't say it was tough nor it was easy..........

n nt at all lenghty.....................

Bt i also expected smethng gd out of costing,,,,

as we hve no hope from ISCA.............

all d best frnds for the next paper

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

ALL IS WELL... ALL IS WELL... ALL IS GONNA BE WELL...

I'LL ROCK IN ISCA... I'LL ROCK IN ISCA...

COZ THERE IS NO OTHER  OPTION... DATS WAT I CAN DO FURTHER....:-)

Really Tough Paper.. Earlier OR was the saviour in Costing Exams - But In the New Scheme, OR cannot be depended upon for marks.

In todays paper - Standard Costing, Budgeting and Theory was the life saviour. Hope they give full marks in Std Costing and Budgeting and atleast half the marks in Theory. I have a feeling that I might just scrape through because of these topics.

Shaken by this paper. May 2012 ki entry confirmed. Can any one tell where from they take questions.

i found paper quite easy.... OR is good  Q1(b) is not good for me otherwise it is okay

EXACTLY!!!!...Q3 (a) was horrible....standard and budgetary control were very easy....theory was very easy..Relevant costing part was bit tough due to non availability of time..(key factor) ,,

It is not transportation problem it is assignment problem it is clearly given that one contractor will get only one contract i.e. one to one approach hence it is assignment problem only

Now we are getting some mixed reactions...

For clarification, when i say difficult, please don't include theory and Q4 (which makes just 32 marks)

Rest of the paper was tough according to me considering the papers of previous years.

Plus questions were like, when u start doing them, you get stuck with them! 

Deadly deadly combo of difficulty and length!

very less hope 4 me......cn neone tell i have a exemption in first group from last attempt.........nw if    in second group if i am able to score exemption ..will i be able to avail it ?

yes... both the groups are different when it comes to exemption. You cant avail exemption when its in the same group in the subsequent attempt. You have to choose then.

But in your case you will get an exemption and you will be able to avail it..

Good luck

It was easy reading the paper

Tough when doing it........
