    I have never heard of not using capital letters… so you can use but i think it will be a waste of time better practice you’re writing as you have enough time…

    I have the same problem, very slow, my writing is crab and sometimes i use capital letter by mistake but you know what, am passing my exams.
    I have only 3 papers to do now and i never ever ever finished any exam paper. e.g F7 i did 75% of the paper and manage to pass first time,
    I never manage to answer even 90% of any exam paper because am dead slow but sure of what am doing. that is i make sure i know the subject in and out especially the core topics.
    I will not advice you to use capital letters because that is unprofessional and you are sitting a professional exam. besides here in the UK it look rude as It is taken that you are shouting when you use capital.

    Exam Tips.
    every paper have Core topics usually 5 each papers.
    In every exam minimum of 3 core topic will appear in any exam paper, so if you want to pass, study the whole syllabus (as they are mostly linked) but master the core topics (Minimum 75% each exam).

    Disclaimer, this is only my experience and observation but it is you responsibility to go through Pass papers to verify this. LOL

    There’s no problem at all using upper case letters in the exam. Don’t worry about it

    Please please please tell me can I enter for f4 as I still have to give f2,f3 but CBE.
    So is it possible to enter for f4? I will give f2,f3 as CBE before f4 but can I book it? Because there are only two days left for standard exam entry. Kindly reply me.

    I believe that you can enter now for F4 🙂

    (If you can’t – the ACCA computer entry form will not allow you! – but I’m pretty sure that you can)

    Hello I’ll give f3 CBE in few days but actually I wanted to ask that if I give f4 before f2 is it possible? Because I’ve already made an early exam entry for f4. And it’s on 9th dec.

    Why not check with the ACCA? They set the rules and then publish them on their website. It’s all very transparent 🙂

    No you cannot register for F4. As F4 is the skill module, the system entry will require you to have either passed the knowledge module (f1,f, f3) exams or chose the knowledge module with the F4. It is better for you to register for the CBE exam first and pass these. Once these are cleared and your myacca account is updated you will be able to enter for F4.

    But today I called an ACCA member. They said yes you can give f2,f3 after f4 if you have mentioned in your online exam entry for f4. I’m confused now 🙁

    Like mike said you just need to contact ACCA.
    don’t confuse yourself unnecessarily.
