    Hi everyone,

    Does anyone has some advice please, as I don’t know which optional papers to choose.
    I am good at F8, so I am thinking of doing P7 self study.
    I liked F9, but I hear that P4 is very hard to pass.
    I rule out P5 because I don’t like cost accounting 🙂

    But I am not sure which ones to do between P4, P6 and P7.
    Could someone advise me please?

    Thank you loads.

    Since you are good in F8 then P7 100%.

    The truth is all optionals are hard to pass. It also depends do you want to just pass the exam or take optional which is somehow related to your current job position.

    P4
    I also liked F9 very much but the reason I probably won’t take it is because I don’t believe it will contribute to my professional development at work.

    P4 will be hard for you to pass but at least interesting to study …. so maybe not that hard to pass at all 🙂

    P5
    You would be surprised about the amount of calculations in P5 (less than what you think).

    P6
    I never recommend doing P6 unless your job is something to do with taxes. But still some people just want to accomplish ACCA – finish ‘whatever’ exams – and it’s also totally ok.

    P7
    It’s a natural pick up for you.
