Hi All,
I’ve just completed the AAT and now looking at starting ACCA in June 2016 to sit an exam in September 2016.
I’m going with Distance Learning, due to costs and being self motivated, but finding it difficult to decide how I want to learn.
I have decided upon BPP but F4+ for the Distance Learning course aka ‘Online Classroom’ is very expensive, at least £500 per module (£400+ a module, then £100 exam fee). It includes their Achievement Ladder, Videos, Study Text, Passcards, Revision and Exam kit and Tutor/forum support.
Kaplan is £280 then £100 for exam, so £380.
Alternatively, I can buy the Study Text, Revision and Exam kit and Passcards for about £70 from Amazon. So it would cost £170 with exam fee.
Therefore studying without help will save me a minimum of £330 per module. Unfortunately, I won’t have the videos, forum/tutor support and achievement ladder.
Could someone please offer some advice as to whether the things I would be missing is worth £330 minimum and if it is worth going through a provider? (Kaplan/BPP).
Thank you in advance 🙂
Regards
Beresford
I have a friend who completed F1 to F7 by only self-study (opentuition.com). he is reasonably intelligent guy. anyways hard is relative. if you put the commitment and hardwork you will be fine. He started ACCA in 2013. he is passing each module in one go so far. Howver, he didnt attend F6 exam first time coz he wasnt prepared then. later he tried and passed.
