Choosing between P6 or P7?

I failed my P6 in last sitting and now really tempted to try P5 although it is not an easy paper either.

I passed P7 in my first attempt although i ever faced hurdles in passing F8 previously.

i personally feel that P6 can be quite interesting as it is more like a standalone subject although it is an advanced level of F6.

Unlike P7, you need to retain your P2 , F7 and F8 knowledge which i suppose you need to spend a bit of time to refresh and revise again. in addtion, the pass rate for P7 is normally the lowest among the option papers. This could be an important consideration.

I suggest you do some reading on the materials for P6 and P7 to determine which is a suitable option for you.

It is a difficult choice, but you need to go with the option that interests you the most and you feel most drawn to in terms of subject matter. Once you make up your mind, stick with it.

The only way to pass these exams is to do question after question after question, and keep reading around all the points. Read all the ACCA technical articles, again and again. Work at it every day, even if you only do one question.

Draw out a question planner, to make sure you cover as much of the syllabus as possible, and think very carefully about the focus of the question. Ie. don’t waste time answering points that will not score marks. Always make sure you collect the 4 professional marks! Best of luck.
