Hello Guys, after being insisted by everyone finally I’m up with ACCA F5 Study Sessions For December 2011.
We are already really late (not exactly) but we need a good start in order to get in working. Okay so let me start.
** For Newbies Here is F5 Syllabus for December 2011 -:
https://www2.accaglobal.com/pubs/students/acca/exams/f5/syllabus/f5_syll_sg2011.pdf
Getting Started, I’m highly expecting good number of students because this June 2011 the Pass rate for F5 was Low Almost Near 37%. I have some good handy tips for F5. We will Start pretty much with the study guide, and keeping a good pace. We would strictly follow discussion related to F5 Exam and its preparations. Students must come prepared and should participate equally (for their own good). If you miss something Chat Session History would help you. But Still I insist everyone should join us on sessions.

– Making Friday & Saturday Of Every Week.
– Timing would be 6.00 PM UK Time (both days)

You can see a seperate TAB for CHAT on Opentution Website, log on to CHAT use your existing OpenTution account to sign in to CHAT and Join ROOM F5. The timings mentions our presence on those days. Its easy try it 🙂 I hope you make it to sessions.

handy sugesstion is Take Opentuition Videos and Solve Opentuition Notes. They will work best! infact in my session i’m gonna make people solve them too!

September 7, 2011 at 7:45 pm #87490Dear ejee, that is really great that someone had enough enthusiasm to start this study group. I really hope it’s successful and I will try to attend as much as my timetable lets me.
Just couple of notes:
which study plan are you using as I noticed it says e.g. “September 24th (Saturday) = Chapter 3” so how to know which topic this 3rd chapter covers and for which topic I should prepare?
and also is it not too much having just 1.5 hrs to cover 2 chapters per session? I am worried that we won’t cover as much material as planned during this time.
September 7, 2011 at 9:50 pm #87491Hi ejeee, can you start F4 study sessions too? I’m planning on doing F4 and F5 December exams.
I’ve only just joined Open Tuition. I get exemptions for F1, F2 and F3.
I’ll be joining the F5 study session too.

yeah sure the chapters are written in Study Guide or Syllabus. Download if you dont have it from the ACCA Website. i’m sur eyou must have it.
Open study guide and watch the Module i mentioned e.g Part – A Cost & Management , The first chapter mentioned is Chapter 1 which is ABC Costing. Check out your syllabus and match them through. Infact you don’t have to match. we will move with syllabus line wise.
yeah 1hr 30min in my opinion are enough if we study wisely and come on time! we will enhance our sessions for 2 hours this wont be insufficient don’t worry mate.
Just worry about December 5th which is only 3 months away!!
