Hi, does this also apply to AA paper in Malaysia?
There is only one global AA exam
Hello,
can I use these lecture videos for Sept 2025 exams?
I would think you could given the very minor changes to the syllabus. However I would recommend you ask on the ask the tutor forum.

Good lecture, Am from zambia studying at CBU. Is the syllabus presented in these lectures compatible (same) with the syllabus in our country for an academic qualification?
You will find the ACCA’s AA syllabus here https://www.accaglobal.com/ca/en/student/exam-support-resources/fundamentals-exams-study-resources/f8/syllabus-study-guide.html if you want to make a comparison
Are all the lectures up to date with the latest syllabus?
Yes – please use the FORUM to ask Qs – this space is for comment
Hi!
Could you please explain why “responsible party” (elements of ass. engagement) is responsible for the assertions?
Thank you!
Please can you use the ask the tutor forum for technical questions. This space is just for comment. In short, because that is the meaning of responsible person …. they are responsible for whatever it is that needs assurance.
Is the OECD and Corporate Governance the same thing?
No – the OECD is an organisation http://www.oecd.org – the G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance is just one of the thousands of its publications. The UK Code of Corporate Governance is one of many national codes – others can be found here https://ecgi.global/content/codes
Only the UK Code is examinable in ACCA as an illustration. Please remember to ask questions on the forum – here is just for leaving a comment.
Mr. Kim Smith in light of the new syllabus for September 2021 to June 2022 there was a new Section F included in which is on employability and technology skills will this be included in the lectures?
Link to the latest ACCA syllabus – https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/exam-support-resources/fundamentals-exams-study-resources/f8/syllabus-study-guide.html#
@guanyu – please use the ask the tutor forum for future queries – these spaces are for comments. Updated notes will be published next week – see last chapter re employability and technology skills. These skills are demonstrated using past questions in the CBE Platform https://opentuition.com/acca/aa/acca-aa-revision-lectures
Please can I use just your notes, lectures and bpp exam question To pass this exam?
Why not try and see how you get on? Certainly many students do not find it necessary to refer to a study text as well. Remember to use the practice questions at the end of each chapter and plan to sit at least one mock exam which you should find in an up-to-date revision kit. You must also refer to ACCA’s resources for CBE preparation which you will find here https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/exam-support-resources/fundamentals-exams-study-resources/f8.html
Please use the appropriate forum to ask further questions (see below) – comments should be left here that relate to this lecture.
Hi,
I need your opinion. I wanted to attend 2 papers for March 2020 exam. Audit and Assurance (F8) and Taxation (F6). Please advise.
Thanks
Comments here should be on the lectures – please use the appropriate forum:
If you want to ask a fellow student: https://opentuition.com/forum/acca-forums/
If you want to ask a tutor: https://opentuition.com/forum/ask-acca-tutor-forums/
Sir, If I have given the first five papers of ACCA, can I give my audit paper ( F8) before F6,F7? Will I face any problem ? Is F8 related to F6 or F7 in any way?
The AA(F8) is more related to F4 paper, so I don’t think you will get in issues in passing F8 before doing F6 and F7.
when will notes be updated for march 2020 exam
They don’t need updating – the syllabus is September 2019-June 2020. The referencing of “S/D19” will be changed to “M/J20” – that is all.
