Bpp is comprehensive and has lots of info in it whereas Kaplan is to the point and its written in simple wordings so in a nutshell if you have time then go for Bpp but if you are working and have less time on hand then go for Kaplan or if you have been using Bpp for all your previous papers then go for Bpp or Kaplan also do keep in mind that if you have been using Kaplan for all your papers and do decide to switch to Bpp P7 study text it will take you more time to cover the chapters as there is more info in them. But end of the day both study texts have been approved by the examiner meaning she has gone through them and have deemed them adequate for the exams so if you have the “fear of failing if i choose Kaplan or Bpp” going in your mind throw it out because end of the day you need to go through the study texts grasp an understanding of how and what to apply what in which situation and start solving the revision kit questions and past papers and once you become good at solving past papers then it wont matter which study text you use also just so you guys know there is life outside Bpp and Kaplan say for example:
International Financial Publishing (IFP)
Get Through Guides (GTG)
Emile Woolf
LSBFBest of Luck in your studies 🙂
Click on the link below it will provide information on all changes made in all papers for the 2012 sitting.
And yes changes have been made in P7 so you will need to purchase the new study text and kit.
Calm down, no need to panic. Just revise what you have learned to date make up a plan and allocate time evenly between consolidation and the reporting standards. say for example do two questions of consolidation and one IAS / IFRS.
As far as current issues are concerned, if you have a grip on the IAS / IFRS then you wont need to attempt that question as the current issue question has quite a large area of coverage it can come from anywhere so smart thing would be to get a good grip on the standards and read any articles which have come in recent student accountant issues.
Take Care and best of luck in your exams.
Remember panicking does not achieve anything be positive, make a plan and stick to it.
No changes have been announced by the examiner however it is advisable to read the monthly student accountant as all changes are announced there.
Changes will be implemented from 2011.
Take your passport or driving license with you or national identity card, it shall suffice, you can look at the back of your docket it is mentioned there.
