    Hi, I got 49% on F6 TX in December 2020 exam.
    I am planning to give F6 TX and F9 FM together in June 2021.
    1. Can somebody give me some advice?
    2. Is F9 hard?
    3. Rate F6 and F9 combo.
    4. or Should I give FR and FM combo?

    It depends on what you mean by hard? Do you find it easy to remember everything you read? FM covers a lot of topic, so you need time to digest that.

    Combining exams depends on how your brain works… 🙂 Some people prefer two completely different exam topics, while others like similarity. I would not consider TX and FM because I find them too different – I prefer the similarities for combination exams (I found FM and PM works well). TX is quite big as well so if you are doing FM and TX be prepared to take some extra time.

    This is what I looked at when deciding which two papers to do together.

    Best of luck 🙂

    There isn’t a “smaller” exam – it’s all relative – and how long it takes to properly prepare to pass an exam at the first attempt depends on lots of factors. I suggest you read this article https://opentuition.com/acca/plan-your-acca-exam-journey
