    Hi All

    I booked the P2 exam for June 2018 but for personal reasons I can’t sit the exam. I understand the P2 Corporate Reporting exam will be changing to Strategic Business Reporting.

    I was thinking of booking the SBR exam for September but ACCA online won’t show SBR as an option :-/

    Also, will the revision I have done for P2 go to waste?

    Thanks
    Manny

    If a student is registered for P2 in June – registering for SBR in Sept won’t be an option unless he fails it (results date 16 July) or withdraws from it (by 22 June). (See exam entry dates at https://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/student/getting-started/important-dates.html.)

    Your revision will not all go to waste – see the posts under the thread “P2 to Strategic Business Reporting changes”.

    Hi Kim

    Thanks for your quick response.

    Do you know If I were to ring ACCA directly, would it be possible to move them exam to September?

    I am so relieved now, knowing the revision will not be wasted as I spent money on Kaplan books that say they are for the June 2018 sitting. Would much differ in terms of topics or new things being introduced which might make one buy another book for SBR?

    Thanks
    Manny

    Unless you have a very good reason, you won’t be able to move the exam. See:

    Please see the post “P2 to Strategic Business Reporting changes” – changes to the way in which the syllabus is examined are significant. I would strongly recommend that you buy an approved Revision Question Bank or Revision Kit for question practice.
