    If I understand correctly you failed F1, F3, now trying to attempt F5,F6,F7 and after that again F1,F2,F3?

    I recommend trying to pass F1, F2, F3 before June exam session. F5/F7 are definitely higher level than F2,F3 which of one you failed.

    Since the CBE can be sit at any point in the time you can complete all by June 2014 but it depends on your strategy for me i did F1 and F2 CBE after failing f2 dec 09.
    In my country I can do the CBE exams the last thursday in every month so i took one month and cover the entire text then sit the exams for both papers then do the f4 and f5 in the next available sitting for written.

    this may or may not work for you it depends on the time you have available for studying and the key to passing any acca exam is to cover the entire syllabus and practice practice practice. if you dont have the time to do the practice do one paper at a time as that way you can put in the work and pass instead of doing several and failing all.

    F2 is lowere level for f5 so you will need that knowledge and F3 prepares you for F7 so you basically need to master those first.

    I agree! I’ve looked at f7 and it’s a big step up from f3. Get these first 3 out of the way b4 you start the higher fs
