Global high achiever was Ahmed Ali, who achieved highest marks in the professional exam world-wide for paper F9, with a score of 94. "On the face of it, the paper may seem to have a high amount of calculation in it, but nevertheless, it is important to understand the underlying concepts behind the arithmetic" said Ahmed Ali. A lot of topics in the syllabus are interconnected and it is important to understand the basis for these topics to be able to score a decent mark, he added. The examiner does not only want us to be able to produce a set of numbers, but also be able to evaluate them in the context of the prevailing environment, Ali said.
