SBLCan P3 be done in 3 months?

Yes, I found it one of the smallest syllabus areas of all the exams I have sat and did not spend too much time at all. I ended up sitting it after a month of part time studying and passed first time! Most of it is common sense with remembering some models such as PESTEL, Porter 5 forces etc.

Thanks for that! :) I've decided to self study for P3 and give the exam in March but only if I pass P2 this December, which I'm not very confident about. Anway, *Fingers Crossed* have to be positive.

I also have this question as the study text is the largest in terms of number of pages so presumed that the syllabus was the largest too. Thanks!

Yes. I'm about to do it for the first time this December and if you remember the models, practice the questions and apply the generic definitions and models to the case study. This not only gives you more marks but it enables you to think about answers for the question especially in the 50 mark question. The other questions will be on Chapters 7 to 13, I think. I did bother with HRM and Strategic management. Project management will probably come. E-business/marketing. I find Ch 7 & 8 quite annoying. Ch 1 to 6 and Ch 11 to 13 are straightforward once you practice. I am going to aim to get 40 marks in Section A that way I can definitely pass. If I am optimistic then I should get 80 marks in this paper. It's quite enjoyable to analyse companies and use common sense + models to solve problems or analyse companies. It's a pleasant change from the rigidity of balance sheets and Comprehensive Income Statements lol I started revision in September for the December exam so 3 months ish..everyday 2 hours after work and 4 hours on the weekends extra days off before the exam should do the trick. Good luck with P2!!!

Hi mr Morpheus, what study books did you use? Did you use a question kit also?

Thanks for this. Very useful thread. I am did P1 on Wednesday and am going to hope for the best and try P3 in March.

I sat for P1 and P3 using Kaplan as well as BPP , i hope i pass but its doable . Not difficult at all , attending lectures i think its just thru fear but otherwise i dont see the need if u are disciplined enough .
