Help with which ACCA Papers to sit for next

prtmlad · 02-01-2011, 01:50 AM

Hi there,
i have just registered with ACCA. i got 4 exemptions (F1-F4). my first attempt will be in June 2011. i got the exemptions on the basis of being a Commerce graduate from India (Mumbai University). My query is that i am confused to what papers to take now. an office colleague of mine has suggested me to go with F7 & F8. another guy has told me to go with F5, F6 & F9. my financial training centre tells me to go in the order i.e. F5 & F6. Please suggest me as to what combination to go for.
Thank You for your response in advance [)]

Go in the order. F5 and f6

i agree with dard.. whether you take 1, 2, 3 or 4 papers, it would be best to go in order

the thing is that it might be a good combination, but in the next attempt, you will end up with a horrible one.. so it would pretty much set off.. therefore, go in order. ACCA recommends that as well it shapes up your mind in the way it is meant to be..

F5 and F9 don't have much in common. I advise F5 and F6, then F7 and F9, and then F8 and P1(if you want to sit two papers in every sitting). F8 and P1 have things in common, like internal control and risk, so i advise you sit them together.

are you sure he said f8?? f8 is the toughest to clear in the f level.

F8 is the most TECHNICAL paper in the fundamental module. I again advise taking F8 and P1 together, for the reason aforementioned
