Hi everyone, new to ACCA and this website. Can I take F1, F2 and F3 together in Dec 14. Thanks
Hi – does completion of F1 , F2 and F3 qualify you to Diploma in Accounting and Business ?
Thanks

Hi All,
I did the CBE for F1 about 2 weeks ago, I only used the open tuition course and Youtube videos and got 82%…
I am planning on doing the F2 in a couple of weeks and I am again basing it on the opentuition lectures. I will do F3 the same way.
Thanks John Moffat!!!

Hi,

Hello, im very new in opentution.com, N im looking 4 opentution online classes N lectures, so pls notify me about these 2 things…….. It would be kind enough. Iffath
hello, i noe the meaning of formal n informal organisation,
if the formal example is bank, school n government
what is the example of informal?
Hi Walaha,
Informal organisations are on p.13 of the F1 notes Iceberg picture that looks more like a puddle !
Every workplace has them !
Take care
Hello Walaha,
The answers are in the ‘Organisations’ lecture. Look for the ‘Iceberg’ chart.
I know it’s confusing but you will succeed- I have faith in you !
Take care,

I have a question about content of F1: Leader and management. In the studytext which shows that the management as someone who does thing right and the leader who does right thing but when I practice question in passcard that show reverse. So which one is correct. Please reply…thanks in advance!
hi i m new here and want to past F1 F3 ,i want to know are that notes provided here enough to pass the exam or it is compulsory to to take text books
Here’s an option:
You can use OpenTution notes and lectures and then practice a lot of questions from Revision Kits (approved by ACCA). However if you feel that you are unhappy with a particular topic and think you need additional information THEN you can refer to your Study text! (or make some good research on the internet).
Anyway, the key to succeed in your exams is to practice as many questions as you can!
does opentuition provide study text and revision kit for F1? please reply, admin.
Hi, to answer to the question you asked me, no i have not used passcard for my exam.
And even if i’m not the Admin 🙂 No Opentution don’t provides Study text and Revision Kits but free lectures and notes. You can also find flashcards, test centre and mock exam on this website.
I will take F1 exam in 1 month later and i’m preparing for this. But i’m considering about the study text which I used. It’s for exam from Dec 2011 to Dec 2012 so I can use it for exam Dec 2013. Has it had any changes in content?
Sorry..
Can I use it for exam Jan 2014?
Hai Yen,
I am going to get an up to date BPP study text. To me, this makes sense if I fail my June exam. An older book even from 2012 wiil be even more out of date by the time I pass. I’ll be spending a little less on Costa coffee this month !
Good fortune in your studies 😉
this make me sad…I’m going to take my exam in 10days later and I have reviewed a half of that text….so what should I do now???
Hai Yen
Do not worry / panic or be sad. The syllabus has not changed very much at all. You will be absolutely fine as long as you know the material in your text inside out. Also download an up to date syllabus from the ACCA website and go through each subsection to make sure you have covered all the topics.
I used a text from 2010 and was more than fine!! You may get one or two questions you are unfamiliar with if you are unlucky; but remember you only require 50%.
Good luck!!
Thank you very much..I hope so as well..^^
Today, I passed the exam with 56%, I’m really happy but I got a bit surprised because I think my work is better than that….anyway, I tried my best…
am so encouraged by David. hope to sit F1 in two weeks time and pass!
opentuition is really helpfull thanks
keep up the good work
i think fab was tricky i failed
Hi David please what updated Revision kit from an ACCA approved publisher did you use as i am planing on writing my CBE by March 2014..
Hi,
i used Kaplan and BPP revision kits but i spent more time on BPP because it contains more questions and i found it more challenging.
I started revising (or studying) only 5 days before my CBE (F1) using OpenTution course notes, Flashcards, Slides, Mock Exam and by practicing on ”updated Revision kit from an ACCA approved publisher” as mentioned on the website.
I passed with 62%.
OpenTution is simply awesome!
hi David,
Which revision you have practiced , I will be doing f1 in June 2014 . Can you tel me pls…………..thnks in advance
Hi,
i used Kaplan and BPP revision kits but i spent more time on BPP because it contains more questions and i found it more challenging.
