    Me…

    I sat for four papers in a last attempt.
    F8
    P3
    P4
    P7

    So out of which two passed, I recommend you doing two although I study hardly, so that could be the reason of failure as well, it all depends on you.

    Thank you for sharing. I have set a tight timetable to be able to study all 3 at a go, will be attending lectures and will have the notes ready by end October and all the past papers revised (under examination conditions) by Mid November, that will give me 2 weeks extra for revision.

    I hope this will suffice to pass all three.

    Hi Matt,

    I sat P1, 2 and 3 this June and passed all three while working full-time. It can definitely be done as long as you focus on the topics you need to know to pass and not get bogged down on the not often examined stuff.

    I think you should do it.

    First of all let me congratulate you on your results Chili.

    I have done 3 exams too in June and managed to pass all 3. I am querying in view of the next 3 being the most difficult in my opinion.

    I work full-time as well but along the sessions have learned how to apply good time management beforehand – in fact I have already started studying.

    I will keep your post in mind, so at the right time I will focus on the topics that you have mentioned.

    Thanks again.

    when I was at the P-level I did P2, P3 and P7, all first passes and I was working three jobs, one of which was full time. Oh and I did self study for P2 and P3.

    I plan to sit my final 3 papers in Dec 2013. P2, P4 and P7. My plan is to focus heavily on the two with the most material which are also the ones that tend to be most difficult (P2 and P4). I plan to read through most of the BPP text hitting the most complex areas of subject matter and then focus on the revision kit, practicing questions over and over. With F7, I plan to read through the material once and then focus on questions. A lot of times the key to passing these exams is practicing those questions. Knowing what you are being asked to do and executing it. I will also use Opentuition to supplement my studies. They have been most helpful since my first exam in 2009 and I know I wouldn’t have gotten this far without the assistance of their lectures and material. I have never done more than two exams in one sitting, and I am in no way under the impression that this will be easy…but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I am envisioning receiving that email in February that says AFFILIATE. So I will make the sacrifice in these next 4 months for that reward!!! All the best!

    @alkemist @kaycam

    Thank you for your feedback. You have given me courage to sit for all three exams.

    It looks like it is achievable as long as I keep to a good timetable for studying.

    I will finish all the relevant notes and start working on the past papers asap.

    Wish you the best for your studies!

    Thanks for your contribution. Your posts are of good inspiration and guidance. I have started my journey towards attaining all the remaining 3 exams. Three months of sacrifice are required, but then we will reap the rewards.

    Good luck to all of you.

    Well yeah, I even had attempt P1, 2 and 3 exams while working full time. Everything entirely depends upon our focus. I believe, one should never be tensed and always try to be optimistic and try their level best that’s the only positive way out of every difficult situation.
