New Challenge #215 at Glitter N Sparkle

Hi,

Well I have survived the Management Costing Exam.
It was rather interesting,
as while I was doing it I found a mistake in
the Exam paper!!!!!
Lets just say I came straight out and complained to my
Tutor that something wasn't right.
So now I have written to the Examining Board
and am awaiting the reply.

I do not want to get penalized for 
something that wasn't my mistake.
so lets wait and see what happens.
