    You can, but …

    … you will need to enter for the first 3 Applied Knowledge papers at the same sitting as attempting the LW Applied Skills paper.

    Here’s an extract from the ACCA’s ‘rules’ link https://www.accaglobal.com/uk/en/student/exam-entry-and-administration/enter-an-exam/exam-progression-rules.html

    “MODULAR ORDER

    Exams must be taken in modular order for the ACCA Qualification, however you can attempt the papers within each module in any order. These rules are in place to guide students on an appropriate path through the ACCA Qualification. Ultimately they help students progress through our exams, as they ensure that students build on their learning and are taking the most appropriate exams based on where they are on their student journey.

    The modular order for the ACCA Qualification is:

    Applied Knowledge exams
    Applied Skills exams
    Strategic Professional (Essentials and and Options)
    If your exam allows you to enter for exams across modules, please remember that you must enter for outstanding exams in your current module if you wish to enter to sit papers in the next module. For example should you have passed exams AB to AA of the Applied Knowledge and Applied Skills exams, if you wish to sit SBL you must also enter for FM at the same exam booking.

    You can find full guidance on what exams you can take in upcoming sessions by using our exam planner.”

    OK?
