Hi, From my own personal experience I have only done one exam at each sitting, as I have a demanding full time job. However that does not mean to say you can't do two if you are committed. I am sure there are others that can advise on that better than me! I have a question though. Do you have your exemptions already and are you registered as an ACCA student? If so that's great. If not you might have difficulty in entering the exams for June as the standard deadline for that sitting is the 27th April. Best to contact the ACCA or look at their website to check if you can take the exams in June. All the very best with your future studies. Cathy.

Also, if you will be sitting LW ("F4") ENG or GLO it is on-demand - not a session CBE. So you could sit it in July (say) rather than first week of June.

Hi, I was having a think about exam combinations and what I would have done if I had taken two at a time. I would just take the Law paper on its own and get it out of the way, as Kim said you can take it at pretty much any time and the exam is only two hours. I would then study PM and see how it goes, if you feel you could also do another paper I would combine it with TX. Bear in mind though when the tax papers start, don't make the mistake I did and sit the exam in last sitting of the season and then if you fail (which I am sure you won't) have to learn all the new tax rules if there are any changes! FR and AA I think is a great combination and then you are left with FM which I felt was quite a technical exam. You might also want to take into consideration what you want to do as your options at the Strategic Professional level, for example if you wanted to take APM you might want to take PM later down the line so you have it fresh in your mind when you take APM. Also have a look at the ACCA's website under the student section and then resources, there is lots of information in regards to the syllabus for each module as some subjects are bigger than others. I really hope this helps and wish you all the best for your exams. Cathy

Hi everyone, I hope you are doing well. Like many of us I am now thinking of combining two exams for September, I am already in the midst of preparation for FR and I still can not make my mind on the second one choosing between FM and AA. First, I thought to have FR + FM (due to the higher pass rates of FM compared to AA). I would be grateful for any piece of advice!

Hey, Must say, your message is very helpful. I was wondering if, when we opt for two exams in one sitting, we have to attempt the second immediately after the first or if we have a break in between the two? Thank you!
