    Dear Ken

    Firstly thank you for the lectures, I am proud to say that I got 60% on my first attempt on P3, although this is not a distinction, to me on this level and considering I attempted 4 papers, I think this was a good result.

    I would like to get a little bit of advice please. I failed P7 with 48%, and so need to complete 1 more exam before becoming an affiliate. I need to decide if I should redo P7 or if I should complete P5. June 2016 I passed both P3 and P4 first attempt, and so I am thinking that P5 might be better suited, as this is in line with P3 and P4, am I wrong in making this assumption?

    Thank you

    At this stage, with you having obtained 48%, I would stick with P7 for another attempt as you have obviously invested heavily there. P5 has a low pass rate and is no walk-over despite there being close links with P3 in particular.
