Hi I am new to ACCA world and I do need both BPP study and revision kit for Jun exam. Would you please help? Thanks
March 24, 2014 at 10:15 pm #162952I bought my BPP exam study text and revision kit from amazon. It was a used book (which was also cheaper than the current year version) as the syllabus hasn’t changed at all since 2012 so you can buy even those for exams in 2012. I am sure there are books available for 2013 but it won’t make much difference.
The main things to learn in F7 are the IASs which haven’t changed since 2012, and to make sure you really know how to apply it to questions on Group accounts and Individual company Income statement and Balance sheet proforma.
Hope this helps.March 25, 2014 at 9:09 am #162982Hi Pavithra … Thanks 🙂 .. Would pls guide me from where shall I start and whether 2 months are enough since I did not start studying yet.
I am a CMA holder, however ACCA seems too different in terms of its examinations and the way people are studying.
I am assuming that I should read the study text, listen to audio lectures along with the notes and use revision kit as my source for exam practice.
Please share your views.
March 27, 2014 at 10:57 pm #163408Hi there Ragwa,
I believe that for F7 the most important thing is to practice ACCA past papers as the questions 1, 2 and 3(sometimes) have mostly calculations. 4 and 5 are the most difficult since there are a number of IASs which you need to know and how they overlap becomes the main part of your explanation.
So do learn the Proformas for Income Statement (ie Statement of ProfitLoss and other comprehensive income), Balance Sheet (statement of Financial Position) and Cash flow statement thoroughly. I can’t stress enough how important these proformas are for your first three questions. I use the BPP study text just to get a brief view of the IASs. Mostly I practice with the Revision Kit. Please supplement your revision of the IASs using Open Tuition lectures they are very much focused on what’s really needed for the exam.
Hope this advice helps.
