Many students have problems choosing which combination of ACCA exams to sit. We have conducted a survey, and over a 1,000 students participated.
Here are the results:
2 ACCA Papers – the best combination
3 ACCA Papers – the best combination
Which is the best combination of ACCA Papers?
i have choosen F4, F5 and F7 for december 2012 exam.
@bney, heyy.. i have taken f4 and f5 .. for the dec exams.. will you help assist me when i get stuck? pleasee.. 馃檪
@sayyeda90,
I am also thinking to take F4 and F5 , but i am not sure how thsi will work .Have you already started studying ?
@kasthury86,In AccA every paper is difficult and every paper is Easy as wel……The main Aim is to pass 14 papers……But if need some relief for this atempt ….. i think for 2 papers….f4 and f6 is the Best combination which needs less struggle and high chances of pass………..
Thanks for your comment.in the end I did only one f4 and I passed the exam.now I am not sure which papers to do .i have to do from f5 .what is the best combination with f5
Thanks for your comment.in the end I did only one f4 and I passed the exam.now I am not sure which papers to do .i have to do from f5
i will have the first time for acca exam in december,
will like to no if the following combinations are okay: f8, f9, p1, p2
@cynthia123, p2 is a hell of a paper!
ive currently finished all subjects from F1 – F8. Whats the best Professional level exam to do with Paper F9? Need some advice guys 馃檪
@thiva, P1, as it is a very light paper. F9 syallabus is quite large and can be heavy going at times.
Does anyone have a good 3 paper combination for the following exams: F5, F6, F7, F8 & F9. I’ve pass F2 – F4 and want to sit another 3 in December…..would I be better taking them based on the schedule of exams in December or mix matching with essay based and number based exams??
I say P1 & P2, you need a text paper to break the calculation sometimes, and P1 can be quite dry so you need the challenge to P2 to get by. P3 is best done on it’s own I find. P7 & P6 are best done together, but you need to commit more time to P6 because the syllabus is tooooo content heavy! That worked for me 馃檪
Please give suggestion regarding the F8 and any other professional papers combination….
i took f5 b f8 for december 2012
@tammo, hi, how did you find that combination of papers? I’m thinking of doing that in June next year. Thanks
did you passed?
P1 or P3. P2 requires much more time commitment. Among P1 and P3 depends on your strengths. I loved business analysis as I have worked as an analyst so I think I spent 1 week on it. But if Business analysis is not your thing, P1 is the best choice.
Kindly provide best combination for Professional level.
Thank you.
p2 & p1 then p5 & p1 then p7 alone are great combinations.
I cleared p3,p1&p7 in one session and p2 & f8 in its previous session.
may i know basic pay scale of acca qulafied ppl in india… ??
Good info for sharing. How about professional level?
i understand your desperation. But if u get 49%, and one month later you resit and get the same or less, what will you do. the six month in between will help you start the whole subject including what u know best. Believe me, u will see the whole subject in a different way.
take the subjects as a passion, new understanding and not a way of passing exams and moving on………..
all subjects are Kind of Connected.
if u cover F1 untill f9 , u are going to realise how connected they are.
the way F1 To F9 is arranged. The core structure is just perfect.
This people who did this arrangement for two timed period they thought about those settings.
IF THEY WILL DO WHAT U WANT; TO RESIT THE EXAM AFTER TWO OR THREE MONTHES; THAT I WOULD HAVE CALLED MONEY MAKING:
so stop analysing their arrangement, analysed what you are going to do to reach your goal.
Thank you for reading
exactly blub…. i have decided to take F4 5 6 together and later F7 8 9 together. that is one of the best option among others
i was wondering isn’t is best to do the Management papers together? I was considering this combination : F4, 5 and 9 and then F6, 7 and 8. does this sound logical or workable? please i need feedback asap
i’m doing F8 and F9 in June just to clear my level 2 papers. will a combination of P1, P3 and P4 in Dec exams be good. I don’t want to do 1,2 and 3 together because i noticed those papers are back to back thus no breaks in between. How does this sound? (just thinking ahead)
the trend of combinations seems like people are like to take F4,5,6 or F7,8,9, which is exactly the same as official recommended combinations. No information at all!!
best of luck go 4 may u get sucess
We are tired of this very conservative way of doing things why can;t there be atransparent way of giving feedback such that people can always know the areas to improve in. With the current system one can not know where he/she needs to improve by just getting back your 49%. Secondly why can’t there be a resit period for those people who fail papers instead of waiting for more six months still ACCA will be getting it’s money.
Agree completely with the shorter period option for a resit exam, however I feel the main blocker on this will be BPP and Kaplan, who make a lot of money from the course materials and lectures, even the resit tuition goes into the hundreds. Can you imagine the loss they would have to take if the resit option was made availble?
However for students, it would certainly improve the time taken to qualify, i hope ACCA listen to their students and take this into consideration.
Unlikely though!
i am interested in what this person said
wat about a survey so students can vote onthis.
i am sure a lot of students will support this
This is the referral to ACCA

Hi there
Time is running very fast and competition is on unavoidable now a days.
ACCA unlike other qualifications (American) take long to qualify due to its
exam polices, because student has to wait for next 6 months to attempt
subject again (failed paper). ACCA is the most growing professional body from all over the world, but its exam polices and way of exam is still on 20 years old
parameters. I started ACCA in 2007 and doing job, till now I am unqualifed
because of system of exams. Number of attempts MUST BE more than TWO in a
year. So, I request you to please consider to change exam pattern in
following way:
Student which has failed in June or Dec attempt, should be allowed to clear
that paper within two weeks or 40 days INSTEAD of waiting for next time.
This can save precious time of student. Consider and forward my requested
to concerned department.
@sharlene20, i absolutely agree
@sharlene20, Sir I totally Agree with your opinion .. Wish to see such policy change in ACCA
@sharlene20, I’ll co-sign this. I hope such policy is introduced.
