    Hi,

    I’ve had to take some time out but now looking to get back.
    I have F7 & F9 to complete, I believe these are now called FR & FM
    Do these now have to be taken on computers or is there a paper option?
    If computer only, what materials are recommended to use?
    TIA

    Depends which country you are in. In the UK they are now computer only. For other countries check this page:

    The content for the exam hasn’t changed, only how you answer the questions. So you should study the same way as before. However, you should familiarise yourself with the software by using the ACCA specimen exams. Some learning providers are also selling additional mock exams.

    There’s loads of videos and guides in the study support section for each exam.

    The multiple choice questions are easy to figure out but the long questions need a bit of prep. There’s a Word type box for written answers, including an insert table option, and an Excel type box for calculations eg for flexing a budget or revising a balance sheet (I’ve not done those exams yet, I’m leaving them until last too)

    On the ACCA website. Always check this section before each exam, there’s useful stuff on there.
