    Hi,
    I had the same combination of exams.
    what worked for me was to take as the first exam the one I did last from F-level. I did FM so I took AFM first as it covers the same topic and I already new the basics and both exams are similar, only AFM is of course more difficult.
    Then I took APM – this is not so similar to PM in my opinion, but still some shared topics.

    I then took SBL and SBR as last exam. But here it depends how much time you have for studying. SBR is in my opinion the most difficult exam from whole studies, it’s very technical, you need a lot of IFRS knowledge and thus a lot of time to study. On contrary, SBL you also need to study, but much of it is just common sense, so you dont need so much time for that. Also there are bits and pieces from all other exams in SBL so it’s probably best to keep it as the last exam.

    Hi,
    I also received a similar email few weeks ago regarding CBE F5 paper I took. They added me 26 points! Fortunately I managed to pass even without that, but it was very close, so I was quite nervous before the other exams.
    It looks like the both write questions (the two questions for 20 points) didnt transfer properly to the marking team.
    I’m also wondering about the realiability of the CBE results, but unfortunately I don’t have a chance to opt for paper exam in my country.
