I have Never do ACCA before, but based on my reading on last sitting question,

P3 PAPER got one question is exactly same wit pilot paper !!
Another one is Foulkynch tips is quite accurate !!
P1 question is quite theory based.
P2 , I am weak in this paper !! I found it very tough  sad.gif Admire those can pass .
Wan to ask, is foulkynch tips always accurate ??

Forget to mention, I will take p1 - p3 this sitting

If u rely on exam tips , and u will get the high chance to fail

cant rely on exam tips, too risky.

Unless you are last minutes study, otherwise don't based on any tips or lecturer spotter area. The risk was very high.

only 28% passing rate for P6?  sweat.gif  sweat.gif luckily i'm not taking that paper anymore  whistling.gif
surprisingly F8 has a higher passing rate compared to previous sittings. thanks Alan Lewin!  notworthy.gif
anyway optional papers are really more difficult than core papers in the new syllabus since they are the final challenges to complete ACCA. so we must work harder on it!  smile.gif
you've already joined. WELCOME! smile.gif

Well,it is the first sitting and rather difficult to tell. I think probably not as many students as usual sat from optional papers,since those moving on from part 2 were directed to core papers instead of optionals. All P papers are as difficult imo

iianm ACCA wants u to go module by module now. i.e. u'll have to take f9 + some core papers

And looking at the passing rates,I think P1 was a surprise package.Alot of ppl either didn't clear it if they thought they would or they got lower marks than they thought they would.

My word of advice? P1 is still a P paper,don't forget that. It may seem relatively easy on the surface compared to the other P papers,but don't let that fool u. Don't neglect this paper when revising smile.gif

my case is a bit complicated..

uhm.. im a Tarc student.. Part 2 and 3 of ACCA, its internally assess and also externally assess for Part 3..

this will be my final sem and im taking the optional papers, P4 and P5.

Im having my final exams in May for P4 and P5 (internally assess), so i was thinking.. since i have not pass F9, means its impossible for me to take up P4 for external exam.

So i was thinking whether is it possible for me to take up F9 and P5 for the coming June sitting. I do not want to waste the knowledge which i've studied a month ago for my final since i still have them in mind..

IF thats the case, as what u hav said.. meaning.. my next sitting, i have to take up F9 and P2.


What if, i wanna take up F9 and P3 instead of P2? Is that possible?

After i read ur msg, i dont understand wat is internal and external

I think ur external means that ACCA paper.

We are not interested on ur internal assess, u just need to tell us how many papers{external)u havent take?

If u want to take P4 and skip for P1-P3, ACCA wont allow u

Hmm, since TARC has internal stuff, I'm not too sure bout it. My reply was assuming u sat for all the papers as external ones.

And based on my understanding,yes you can take P3 instead of P2

I think it's TARC's arrangement with ACCA, they take some internally assessed papers instead of the ones we take.

yaya...i understood wat ur trying 2 convey...
fundamental level is being assessed internally...
but professional level is both internally and externally....

there is a rule from ACCA, stating :
1)fundamental level --> pro ( core ) --> pro ( optional )....unless ur being offered 2 do d optional pprs b4 d transition period, you must complete ur core pprs 1st...

thus, its not allowed 2 tk f9 n p5 2geta (assuming tat ur not in d exception category )....

2) u can take any papers in d same module regardless of its sequence....

thus, u can take p3, den p2 den p1....any orders wil do but they must b in d same module....

anyway...u can check wic pprs u r able 2 sit for d coming exam tru acca website ma...
hehe...hope im not wrong....

I just bought P1 original Foulklynch Textbook .

I just felt that it is insufficient .

Anyone can sell me their BPP P1 text book ?

IN Penang, any major Bookstore selling P1 BPP text book? If no choice, have to buy also sad.gif

You no need to purchase too many text book, even u purchase BPP oso, it won't help u a lot for the exam.

Always remember, ACCA exam is difference from Degree Exam. It not said you study the text book by hard, then the chance to pass exam will be higher.

If u want to buy extra, may be u buy Revision Kit to practice question.

But since u able to purchase soo many text book, why not you go to attend class? It is better than u keep on to buy text book.

I already got the revision kit lo, BPP one. my frined give me  one...
No time to attend class la, working full time ...

Maybe will attend intensive class, but it still depends lo..

how come u buy the original textbook?
this is very expensive.
some more the textbook is look like a dictionary only,wont guaranttee u to pass exam
do u think that the question will come out wat the tectbook write?

do u think that ACCA is like ur degree , is very easy to score?
just like study wat ur lecture teach then can pass.
and rely on ur lecture tips then can pass?

I got a "kangTou" that buy revision kit and textbook for P1 ,
1)BPP text book +revsion kit
2)ftc textbook + exam kit

total price for 4 book not exceed ur one original books

Special notes to u: dont think that ACCA is easy like ur degree

I got a best friend, his girlfriends also think that ACCA is easy,
she is from UTAR, and working full time.
And she said she got study something similar to P1 during her degree
And she said P2 is accounting only, sure can handle
And she took all the P1 -P3 paper. and she seld study.
and study last minutes, cause she also pass her UTAR degree by study last minutes

the result out, she score the highest marks is her P2 is 33%
and P1 is 29 and P3 is 28%

After it, my best friends(her boyfriend) call me to ask for help.
I just said that I already advise both at the begining of the year.
