Is any one of you lucky P4 passers looking to offload your study text?
Failing that, any recommendations over Kaplan or BPP or is Opentuition alone enough?November 4, 2015 at 7:13 pm #280523Opentuition is not enogh. A lot of topics are missed, i.e. VAR, deep understandung of Greeks. For P4 exam I recommend BPP: Kaplan is too briefly

Did you actually watch the lectures? Because it is made very clear that the Lecture Notes are precisely that – notes to use while you are watching the lectures. The lectures explain and expand on the notes – they are not meant to be a Study Text and therefore to use them on their own is stupid.
Of course VAR is covered – try looking at the list of the free lectures!! It is the first on the list of lectures!
The Greeks are certainly covered to the extent required in the exam.The only important topic that is not lectured is mergers and acquisitions. This is because there are no techniques involved that are not covered in other lectures – the problem is more one of approach.
That is why there are several lectures on here working through several recent Question 1’s from the exams dealing with mergers and acquisitions. They go through the approach as well as obviously the calculations involved.Presumably you have not watched these either!!
