hi guys
I recently started f9… Just wanted to find out from old f9 students what they thoughts of the course and any advice on passing f9 well.
Thanks.July 18, 2015 at 5:47 am #261029not hard at all , the syllabus is obviously bit lengthy with theoretical part bit more but overall its manageable and my advice would be time management , i got drifted away in the recent exam but still its selected portions such as working capital , financial statements , determining over trading etc are somewhat similar to those from F7.
July 19, 2015 at 5:35 pm #261104It depends whether you like Finance or not. F9 is 50% theory and 50% calculation.
For me, the calculation in F9 is quite straighforward. However, some of the theories in F9 are quite difficult to understand. Even though, I have read it again and again, I still didn’t get the point of it.July 27, 2015 at 6:47 am #262414as far as a remember, it is a very straightforward paper; no real difficulty if you are well prepared. Also if you plan on taking p4 later, i would advise you to FULLY learn and understand all the concepts now and not just learn for the sake of passing f9. You may come across some difficulties with the exchange rates/hedging concepts( as we all do ) but hopefully it is very minimal in this paper.
