*** ACCA F5 June 2018 Exam Results ***

Hello Ngo from Vietnam, Congratulations how did you pass with 95% ? Which materials did you use?

Failed with 43%, absolutely gutted!
Was my retake and got 49% first time… Really felt like this one went well, which is worrying as i clearly don’t have a grasp on some topics, but thought i did!!

Third attempt and 51%. Feels like 100% to me!!!

I passed at the 1st attempt. All thanks to open tuition.

Thank you for your good materials they were so cool .

Failed 46 .

I failed my first ACCA exam. Did the paper version since the CBE is not available where I live. I got a 48% on my first try. That sucks big time!

First attempt f5 – 33% passed with 50%
First attempt f8 – 46% passed with 50%.

Thank God, I feel so elated as I needed this motivation for f7&9 come September. More work needed. Congrats to those that passed. To those that failed, never give up!!!

Hi accama,

COngratulation for your great success in exam. I wanna ask for some tips on how to study F5 and F6 paper.

first of all, is ACCA your first accunting study or you have studied accounting before? I asked this question because it does affect me on how your study technic will be applicable to me, as I have no previous knowledge in accounting before.

I appreciate your tips and Thank you in advance.

hmmmmm first attempt. i failed with 44%. It’s well.

First time pass with 50%. Thank you Mr John Moffat and OpenTuition.

HI there, for those who has passed the F5 exam, may you give me some tips on how to study for F5 exam.

Are you all have studied accounting at university or college before or this is your first accounting study ?

if for first time accounting study, Could you give me advices on how to study and master the F5 paper?

Well, i had initially no accounting background since I had done my O levels and A levels as a science student but when I decided to do ACCA… I was advised by someone really experienced to get some exposure before you dive into ACCA… So I went ahead and did A levels in Accounting too and that actually proved to be a tremendous help!

Now talking about F5, make sure your concepts are clear and you do non-stop practice from practice kits of either Bpp or Kaplan… Do constant practise.

I will recommend you to go Section wise of the syllabus… Understand the concept and simultaneously do the questions of those topics before starting off the next section/topic… This will help u retain and understand the matter well. As you are practising see your mistakes properly. Analysing where you went wrong and why….

Keep going like this and make sure you do TONS OF PRACTICE… THE MORE THE BETTER… AND THE BETTER CHANCES OF PASSING.

I dont whether you have done F5 before or the future exam is going to be your first attempt and you are going to start from scratch?

If this is going to be your first attempt.. Then i will advise you too look into the following approach I have mentioned here

https://opentuition.com/topic/want-to-sit-in-september-for-f5-through-self-study-is-it-possible-and-how/

If this is not going to be your first attempt then I will advise u to first “Attack” the topic areas which you know u are weak at or dont understand the concept of… Do the question practice simultaneously. Then go to the other topics but no need to invest a lot of time… Just some of it… as revision and emphasis should be ON QUESTION PRACTICE!

This is something i would do.

I will surely advise you to get it off your mind that you dont have background knowledge of accounting… Otherwise this will keep on haunting you until the end of ACCA and deter your progress.

Hope it helps.

I scored 47 Marks 🙁
