Hi Mike,
I am unsure if I should post this under ask the tutor..
I’ll be taking F7 in December and still undecided if BPP or Kaplan is the way to go for study text and exam kit?I basically do self study.
Would appreciate some guidance as I need to order my books and start studying soon after my September exams.Btw:
For F9 I used Kaplan
F6 I used BPPThanks for the help.
September 1, 2016 at 12:41 pm #336804Which did you enjoy more? BPP or Kaplan?
This is a matter for personal choice and NO-ONE can help you here
What I shall say is that you can save money (in two ways actually!)
1) Do not buy a study text! Neither BPP nor Kaplan
2) Should you decide to buy your study materials from BPP you are able to take advantage of the 20% discount available if you order through Opentuition (see the black box on the right hand side of this page)
Personally, I am NOT going to recommend any publisher above any other – it’s a matter of personal preference
Sorry!

Kaplan was easier to understand but their books seem to have a lot of volume which can be off putting.BPP was less volume to deal with, but less examples/illustrations.
Nonetheless, thanks.

March 12, 2017 at 6:27 pm #377949But if you don’t buy a study text, how then do you prepare for the exams?
March 12, 2017 at 11:01 pm #377972By following the opentuition free course notes, working through the examples, using the flash cards, practicing the mock exams, using the Ask ACCA Tutor facility, reading examiner’s comments, reading technical articles, and spending hour after hour practicing mcqs from a revision kit
There’s no time for a study text (and it’s unnecessary anyway!)
OK?
