    Hello,
    I need advice and your comments.
    I am preparing for June session, but I feel I’ ll not be able to cover the material .This is first time I am registered to F5 exam. I am now on Variance analysis lectures and I have done only section A examples in Kit for previous chapters… How do you think, how much time needed to cover properly? I can spend 2 , max. 3 hrs a day…I understand that it depends on person, but in average, how would it take?
    And how do you think should I buy a new Revision Kit if I re-register for September session or the content will not change very much?

    As you say, how much time is needed does depend on how easy or difficult the individual student finds the topics, but 2 to 3 hours a day should certainly be sufficient. Just make sure you leave some time immediately before the exam to practice and practice – you cannot practice enough 🙂

    The syllabus will not change for September, but the format of the exam will. (You can find specimen exams on the ACCA website that show the format of the exam for June and the format for September onwards)

    Most of the questions in the Revision Kit for September will be the same as in the June Kit, but they will have extra questions in the style of the new Section B of the exam.

    Sir, sorry to disturb you with the same question. I realised, it will be better to postpone entering into exam until September.
    Please, advise, should I go on my studies using June Kit and material here on OT or there will be changes here for September session?
    And previousely you mentioned extra questions in a new style. So, will they be available in new Exam Kits only?
    In general. will it be enough to cover all the material here and old Kit?
