I am not a full-time student and have a 9 to 5 job. SBL is the only exam I have left to complete my ACCA qualification. I want to attempt and hopefully pass it in this attempt as it is the last paper-based examination sitting going to be held in my country. I need some advice regarding my plan to study.
I am planning to use open tuition video lectures along with notes and BPP practice and revision kit. I am confused if that will be enough to pass the exam or shall I also buy the BPP worbook and read it too but I seriously doubt if i’d have the time to read it.
I’ve always taken face to face classes in past but I do not have time now to attend classes.
Any advice will be really appreciated. Thanks.

However, this exam is relatively light on technical content but heavy on question technique. Your plan to buy the revision kit is good – and essential. Also look at all the guidance videos that ACCA has on heir site. We have some additional case studies and videos on our site – eg a guide to the March 2020 exam and how to approach the questions.
My advice tend to be to answer questions from a common sense view first but then use models and frameworks to check your analysis and to give your answer some theoretical respectability. Do not describe models and theories: apply then to the question.
