    Hello, I cleared F4 in December 2020. Now I am planning to appear for F5. I have started studying, completed some topics, I still have to solve the exam kit and give mock tests. I am scared by just the thought that F5 is supposed to be the toughest one out of all the five papers. I have 1.5 months now. I am constantly getting anxious. If I study a decent amount i.e 6-7 hours a day, should I appear for March 2021 or should I just go with June 2021. I would like to give it in march 2021 but I am worried I might not be able to complete all the studies but I also don’t want to drag it till June. I would really appreciate some advice/suggestions. Thank You.

    Papers F5 to F9 (now called PM to FM) are certainly harder than the first 4 exams because they are the next level of exams (and the exams after Paper FM (was F9)) are another level higher.

    I assume that you are studying by watching our free lectures, in which case you should watch all of the lectures and attempt the short tests linked at the end of each chapter.

    When you have finished your studying you should then start working through your Exam Kit if you are using Kaplan (or Revision Kit if you are using BPP) and attempt every question, learning from your mistakes (and when you have finished all the questions then keep re-attempting them depending on how much time you have available 🙂 )

    If you encounter any problems while watching the lectures or while attempting questions from you kit, then ask in this forum and I will help.

    There is no reason why you should not be able to complete everything in time for the exam in March 🙂
