    Hello Everyone

    Need little suggestion I recently finished the first three papers. Now I am due to do next stage F4-F9.

    Had a plan of doing f5 and f7 and started preparation for f5 already . does any of f4 and f6 topics fall into (f5 and f7)? couple of my friends who are studying with me were telling f7 and f8 make a really good pair.

    I actually do not think that F5 and F9 are a particularly good combination. There is no real link between the two papers.
    They are both calculation based (although 50% is writing).

    I think it better to take one calculation paper and one written paper (rather then end up having to take two written papers together).

    Also, F9 does require a little tax knowledge and so it is better to take it after F6.

    The most sensible order of papers is that given by the ACCA – i.e. to take the papers in number order!
