Hi,
Could you advice me, as you stated earlier “in case of looking to be practiced as an accountant or auditor on UK so no choice, and only have to apply for the English not global”.
Is that mean in the future if i studied the global law as i am not reside on UK i am living on UAE, i not have the chance to apply for a job on UK on the accountancy field?Appreciated.
No, you can apply for, and get, a job in the UK
What you cannot do, under the current rules, is set yourself up in practice as a registered auditor in the UK
OK?
If you do the UK variant can you still practice in all other countries as well as the UK??
That depends on the local laws / regulations
There’s no straight-forward easy answer, sorry
OK?

What is the difference between the uk and the english variant?<br />
Isnt it the same thing?<br />
<br />
thanks in advance<br />
<br />
DID ANYONE ACTUALLY READ MAYFIKRY’ ORIGINAL POST??<br />
<br />
The post asks for the difference between the UK and the English variant<br />
<br />
OK, here’s a sensible answer – there is no UK version of F4. English law is NOT the same as, for example, Scottish law. English law is law which relates to ENGLAND ( and Wales )<br />
<br />
If the original post had referred to the Global variant and the differences between Global variant and the English variant, then much of Ansi’s comments apply – the BIG difference is the section on the International rules on International contracts ( there is no equivalent section in the English variant )<br />
<br />
Extensive reference is made in the Global variant to relevant parts of English law, so there is a degree of commonality between the two variants.<br />
<br />
Contract law in the English variant is considered in rather greater depth than the Global equivalent.<br />
<br />
There is no section on Sharia law in the English variant whereas there is in the Global version.<br />
<br />
A simple comparison of the two published syllabi would easily answer the question “What’s the difference between ….?”<br />
<br />
But, the answer to the original question, as posted, is “There is no such thing as a UK law variant!”I live in England. I need to know which variant is appropriate for me, English or Global?
And Which one is easy to pass compare in both variant English or Global?Thank you
Hi Biddut
May I refer you to the post from Mr Jon Bains, I believe it’s 8 posts below this thread, headed “tort” wherein Jon provides links to three previous answers to the same question as yours.
If you’re still not sure, by all means post again on the Ask ACCA Tutor forum and I shall get back to you
OK?
Neither is any easier than the other! Common sense should tell you that!
Both are “easy” if you have put in the appropriate preparation
Get yourself a revision kit and start that preparation … and when you hit a problem, post on the Ask ACCA Tutor forum and I shall get back to you
OK?
Please can anyone help with the soft copy of the law English variant text? Thank you very much
I really hope that you’re not asking for a pirate copy of copyrighted material. That would be a criminal offence
There are a number of posts on this thread already (and elsewhere in the law paper forums) where it is pointed out that a study text is not necessary for success in this exam.
You have freely available course notes and video lectures and the availability to ask any question about law on the Ask ACCA Tutor forum
The only time that you need to spend any money is in acquiring a revision kit / exam kit from either of the approved publishers BPP or Kaplan – and if you choose BPP you can take advantage of the 20% discount available by clicking on the yellow box on this page and placing your order through OpenTuition
All clear?
Hi Mike/Fellow ACCA students,
Was hoping you could help with my question.
I’m going to start preparing the English variant of the ACCA Corporate and Business law exam in a couple of weeks.
I think it’s been mentioned before that the syllabus has not changed. Would learning materials for 2019/2020 still be valid and if so, I may look to buy last years material (as it may save me money), or would you recommend to purchase the 2020/2021 BPP revision kit and exam kit ?
Thanks,
19/20 material is still valid so that should save you some money
What do you mean “revision kit and exam kit”?
These are both banks of questions – the first is from BPP and the second from Kaplan
There’s certainly no need to buy both
If you meant “revision kit and study text” there are various posts on this thread that point out that you don’t really need a study text
Buy a second hand, previously owned revision kit and get stuck in
Oh no worries. Thanks. I thought the revision kit and exam kit were two compulsory resources bought from BPP or Kaplan. Thanks for pointing out my mistake here and clarifying that I only actually need to buy one of these, as opposed to both.
Yep, plan to use the open tuition resources so, will just purchase the revision kit.
Thanks again for the response.
I have two questions.
1. Can I apply for Oxford Brookes bsc degree if I choose global variant for F4? Or do i have to have english variant for the degree?
2. If right now I’m going for global variant for F4, then do I have to opt for other variants say for example F6, that is tax paper? Or can I still opt for english variant for F6 when I’ve given global variant for F4?
Please help I’m very confused thanks.
I am wondering the same.
Planning to do F4 Global because can’t find a book for Irish variant. Don’t know how I am supposed to study for it.
Wondering about F6 at later stage, should I go for Global Taxation or Irish variant.
So confusing
