Jarus: I don't believe exam should be about syllabus alone , there is nothing wrong in chipping in one or two general questions apart from the regualar 'define this', 'what is XX?', 'discuss 5 xtics of YY' and all those questions. In my FA old PE1, imagine being asked questions about excel, how to expand row etc. These are things you won't find in syllabus but clearly not out of order for someone in PE1 of ICAN.

Similarly, in last foundation economics, there was a question on 'currency redesign', obviously wantimg to test knowledge of economy in respect of Sanusi's currency redesign attempt. These are things you won't find in syllabus or even textbooks, but with common sense you should be able to answer this kind of question as an economics candidate in ICAN. With your ideas(mere listening to radio or hearing peppersoup joints gists or even reading politics section of Nairaland, you should be able to attempt this kind of questions and do well above average. But many students will expect direct, syllabus-programmed questions like 'what is elasticity of demand?'.

You're being trained to become a chartered accountant and even in practice there will be one-off, peculiar cases that will require your intuition.

Yet, 80% of ICAN questions are direct questions from syllabus which is enough to pass.
