    Hi everyone

    I’m planning to sit P7 in September and do it self-study full-time. This gives me just under 7 weeks. I got exempt from F8 but passed P2 in June. Would you say this is do-able?

    Hi Gabriella,

    Yes I think this is very doable as there is a good bit of overlap between P2 and P7. I self-studied this module for 8 weeks and got a pass (and I had not yet attempted P2 so I had little knowledge of the accounting standards).

    I think time management is the most important thing in P7, so I would advise you to spend a few weeks going through the course content then get straight into the past papers! Good luck.

    Passed first attempt with 57%. Well done to all who got over the line, and keep going to those that didn’t.

    That’s me finally qualified. For those interested, linked theory and ebusiness worked for me (and everyone else by the looks of it).

    I think this is legit as I hadn’t attempted P2 before and the email provided my P2 result (passed!).

    Link theory and ebusiness worked for me.

    Good luck everyone!!

    Thank you. I suppose u r a finalist ? Which paper u took this time ? Did u try the theories ?

    Yes I’m a finalist too, I took P2 this time and both the theories are “working”. I’ve been reading the forum and I’ve decided Im not relying on them at all since they haven’t worked out for a few people. Think the worst and hope for the best 🙂

    Thanks that’s inspiring. How did u feel the quality of your answers were ?

    Felt the quality of my answers got worse as I got further into the paper, as I was rushing to try and get it finished. Didn’t think I had passed that one. I find it’s always hard to tell though. Hope u clear it, good luck!

    I could also see student@ earlier, and just now i can see members@; hopefully the theory is correct. either way there are obviously a number of updates going on behind the scenes.. Good luck to everyone.

    Passed with 51% first attempt; on more to go. The paper overlaps with P2, and there is potential to score good marks in q1 (35 marks) as they are always based around audit/business risks. P5 is tougher for sure and you can get some very nasty papers, although if I had sat p5 a few times (took me two attempts) I would have another go at it in June and focus on nothing but exam technique. Also I think professional marks got me over the line on this one, so would advise anyone to not forget about those when beginning question 1! Well to those who passed; and keep going to anyone who missed out this time.

    One of the few sensible comments on this thread. These theories have caused widespread panic. As a result people have been obsessing over them for days. Shouldn’t be tolerated on the forum.
