    Hi

    I think your question would be better on the open forum rather than “Ask the tutor” sorry.

    At least you would probably get responses from students who have been in the same position.

    Even if you were exempted from F1 – F3, it’s my personal belief that you would be advised still to do F2 and F3 – they lead on the other papers like F5 and F7 and a good background in the basics of these two papers from ACCA tutors would be extremely valuable

    Hi ms1234,

    This question belongs to ACCA General Form, Anyways Regarding your question, studying BBA rather then ACCA will be a poor choice, in BBA you will only be called graduated and may have a degree of BBA but if you directly do ACCA then you’ll have more advantages, After completing F9 you may be able to get OBU degree then you’ll be called graduated and after completing whole ACCA i.e completing professional papers like P1, P2, P3 and optional papers and completing PER (Practical Experience Requirements) you will be called professional accountant as ACCA is a professional certificate, If I am not wrong then you are from pakistan, I am also pakistani and here in Pakistan the HEC( Higher Education commission) of pakistan will award a degree of M.Com directly from Karachi or Islamabad university after the completion of ACCA. If you still want to acquire bachelors degree as soon as possible then I advice you to Enroll yourself in Both ACCA and B.com, the duration of B.com is 2 years only here in pakistan and for ACCA student B.com is a piece of cake, you only need to study a month for B.com Exams and during the session you will be able to study ACCA and Sit for its exams. The best thing is your studies of different qualifications will never clash, whatever you will study in B.com are from F1,F2, F3 and F5 of ACCA which are very easy papers. Now its upto you what you are willing to do…..

    ” in Pakistan the HEC( Higher Education commission) of pakistan will award a degree of M.Com directly from Karachi or Islamabad university after the completion of ACCA”

    Is it only equivalence certificate or a M.com degree ????
