Passed with 69%. This was my last one. Since my husband is French, we had a lot to celebrate!
I passed all exams (F1 to P7) on first attempt – thanks to Becker books and OpenTuition. P2 and P6 were the most challenging ones I thought.
To all who have to re-sit, keep it up, it will pay off. The best tip is to attempt as many past exams as possible.June 4, 2018 at 8:02 pm #456168I started with exam with Q3 and Q4, then Q2 and ended with Q1. I rushed through everything and just managed to finish – but without any time to think further.
I read some of your points which have completely escaped me! I did mention some others though.
It is the first exam where I had to request a 2nd booklet, that’s how much I wrote! hope the examiner can read me!!April 16, 2018 at 9:06 am #447214Passed with 71%, first attempt and self-study.
Dino’s webinar was great.
Only P7 to go in June.April 16, 2018 at 8:59 am #447205Passed with 66%, first attempt and self-study. Thank you Chris for your amazing teaching. You have a gift for making complicated things simple.

I agree, it was SO tough. I’m glad it’s behind…October 16, 2017 at 9:02 am #411725Passed with 76%, first attempt and self-study with Becker and Opentuition.
October 16, 2017 at 8:55 am #411721Passed with 64%. I thought I did much better. A bit concerned since I’m planning to write P7 and I’m not sure what went wrong. But I’m thankful for passing! P exams, here I come!!
September 9, 2017 at 1:19 pm #407003I also said neither 1 nor 2

I also chose the same for theory of BF, but in case of NRV and irredeemable preference shares I chose neither 1 nor 2Do you remember what the statements were?

Hi, what was the answer of the MCQ in which it asked about the irredeemable preference shares and NRV?Sorry I can’t remember
The one about behavourial finance I think was irrational decisions by finance managers or something like that. Not sure though…
September 9, 2017 at 12:02 pm #406986I used the probabilities given in EV formula and got 396,000
September 9, 2017 at 10:10 am #406965For q31, I got Ke for:
ordinary shares around 11.8%
preference shares: 8.08%
And Kd for loan notes: 5.5% (using IRR), which I also applied to bank loan (not sure if it was right)
WACC was around 11.6(or 7)%For q32, I found NPV: $11.2m. I used the 5% value at end as scrap value and deducted it from carrying value to apply a balancing tax-allowable depreciation benefit.
My Payback period was 2.7 years.MCQ (in random order, please stay with me!):
Right value per share: $0.9
Economy inputs, efficiency outcomes
Factor gives reduction in profit of 90,000$
About gvt action to increase demand, I selected reduce currency value (not sure)
Economic risk (affects demand)
I used Asset Beta = Equity Beta since the company was ungeared.
I selected when bank accepts the letter of credit (not sure!)
Aggressive approach since they used short-term finance for all fluctuating + part of permanent current assets.Can’t remember the rest!
July 17, 2017 at 8:04 am #396820Pass with 85%! I still can’t believe it!!
July 17, 2017 at 8:02 am #396818Passed with 78%. First attempt. What a relief!

Wooooww !! would you mind sharing tips on how u studied ?? 🙂I used Becker Professional study material, coupled with Opentuition for revision.
5 weeks of hard work – full time (though I have a family). Lots of exercises. And a few test practice for time pressure – that’s what I found the hardest with F5: time pressure!April 17, 2017 at 8:42 am #381972Passed with 82%. First attempt. Thanks Opentuition for the great support
January 16, 2017 at 2:29 pm #367632Thanks!
Where did you write your exam?
Was it CBE or paper based?January 16, 2017 at 12:04 pm #367527Thank you Eitan.
ACCA offers a ZAF version but it seems impossible to find the study material or centre which offers to write the local version.
I’ll follow your advice. Thanks.December 20, 2016 at 4:39 am #364056Passed with 87% – 4 weeks of hard self-study with Becker material coupled with Opentuition – which really helps to simplify content
