    Hi Safreena

    I think P2 is quite hectic not that I have written it myself. I also have to attempt P2 as well and also thinking of P5 and P7

    What other papers do you still have to attempt or are these your last 2?

    Well P7 is recommended by all so its a definite yes, you said you are not working in audit right now but are very interested in it so there you go, P6 is out of question unless you are in England and want to be a Taxwoman, P5 is Management Accounting, I think and its just my personal opinion if you are taking P7 you should go for P4 with it, but at the end of the day its depends on what you like, if you did well in F5 you can do P5 too

    @ anisa : i have 3 papers more..

    @zmukhtar : i did my internship for 3 months in BIG 4 co. i always prefer one practical paper with one theory paper.
    but inspite of the fact that i like audit, the pass rates and general comments about it makes me worry, thanks !

    Its all true but for me thats what makes it special plus I am only interested in Auditing. Now I feel like I am coming a little strong here which I shouldn’t coz it may be right for me but you may have other preferences but if you did ok in F8 there is no reason why you cant do P7 with a little more effort but then again in my opinion you shouldn’t do it if you think you can do better with the other ones.
