CHEERS!February 10, 2014 at 3:34 pm #157766Congratulations Khalid. I have 1 exam left but have been doing it for 7 years! Do you work full-time?!?
February 10, 2014 at 3:52 pm #157771Hey Richard. Thanks a lot 🙂
I worked part – time at 3 charities throughout the week. Studied full-time the entirety of the final month in each session. I now work full time (9 – 5) at a construction company.
February 10, 2014 at 3:54 pm #157772MashAllah,,,Fantabalous Mr. Khaled
Where r u from ??????February 10, 2014 at 3:59 pm #157775@ Sibtain, thanks a lot!
Im from Pakistan 🙂
February 10, 2014 at 5:31 pm #157793That would explain it Khalid, fantastic achievement all the same! I’ve always worked full-time plus have a 2 year-old at home, hence why it’s taken me so long!
February 10, 2014 at 5:36 pm #157795@ Richard, Its amazing that youve cleared 13 of them with a child 🙂
Thankyou , Richard!
Which paper is it that you are stuck on, though?
February 11, 2014 at 8:33 am #157941I’m not stuck, I failed F7 twice and F9 once. I’ve passed all the Ps first time. Roll on June 2nd for P7!
February 11, 2014 at 12:39 pm #158084Incredible feet of achievement Khalid, you rock!!
I am 46, working full time in a senior finance role , with a 1.5 year old at home , registered in 2001 and reregistered in 2007, till 2010 I passed 1 exam with 2 exemptions and completed 10 exams between 2011 and Dec-2013, It could have been 14 and would be a member had I passed P4.
February 12, 2014 at 8:06 pm #158481@ Richard, aah we got a common paper there! Im taking P7 as a post-qualification exam, along with the Pakistani (PKN) variant of the F6 exam.
Good luck to us , eh? 😉 Lets bury P7.
February 12, 2014 at 8:09 pm #158482@ sathjyot , Thankyou so much for your kind words! 🙂
So you will be taking P4 again this June? P4 is a tough exam! All the best for your June attempt! I really do hope you become a member after the June attempt!! 🙂
February 13, 2014 at 5:50 pm #158620Thank you khalid, I could have passed P4, This session was first time I took 3 papers in one sitting,Lack of question practice did me in. And it was always like that for me whenever there is an easiest paper I fail and at second attempt the toughest one I pass. This happend to me once for F-08. Thank you once again
February 13, 2014 at 7:03 pm #158646Great achievement, Khalid.
Any tips you want to give to fellow OT members on how you manage 4 exams in 6 months. Seems quite difficult.
February 13, 2014 at 9:22 pm #158661Khalid, congratulations. However I think you are an exception rather than a norm. I am sure you excelled in high school as well as college. As Deelo has requested above, please explain to others how you manage to read 4 text books and revise to a level that you pass in such a short time. If you don’t, you may have just discouraged so many people who are struggling.
I once read a posting here when preparing for P2. A guy wrote that he only needed two weeks to prepare for his exams. I thought he was showing off. He provided an explanation of how he studied smart and not hard. I followed his instructions and prepared myself for P2 in two weeks after having earlier decided I had no hope and would not go for the exam.( I had studied for 2 months before the exam but gave up until I read that posting) I passed on first attempt.February 19, 2014 at 1:47 pm #159420Kasonde, mind sharing the technique for P2? 🙂
December 25, 2015 at 7:10 pm #292734helo,
i hope u r fine khalid. i basically am from pakistan lahore . now am in london and am doing ACCA i completed f1 and now am doing f2. u r my senior any tips related ACCA i appreciate u.December 29, 2015 at 1:16 pm #292934Congratulations. If you are studying full time then this is what I would consider normal. In my final year on my degree I was doing 12 main exams per year with added assesments and projects in between. While ACCA is a little more tricky, 8 exams per year is very achievable to a full time student.
I myself work full time in finance (thankfully) and have a 10 month old baby at home. How things change.
Time is a key factor in exam success. If you have lots, you will pass easily with multiple exams. - AuthorPosts
