    Hiya,
    I have master of commerce degree in Accountancy and graduated in a year 2008 from India. Now I lived in uk. I would like to go for ACCA. But I am little bit confused about exemption. Shall I take the exemption upto f4? In ACCA website, I got exemption uptoF4 paper.
    Shall I get exemption or not?
    If yes, will it be good to take it or not?

    Without going to classes or college is it possible to complete ACCA ?

    If possible then can I get in touch with one of the your office staff so I can ask in details all questions about ACCA?

    The Exemptions will cost you as much as actually sitting for the exams… I don’t see any reason for anyone to not avail the exemptions and would always recommend that one should take up any exemptions on offer EXCEPT F4 Corporate and Business Law. A pass in F4 (UK Variant) can be critical if you want to apply for a UK Practice License or if you’re interested in going for reciprocal membership with any other UK Professional Accountancy Body on the basis of your ACCA Membership.

    Considering that you’re coming from an Indian background I think that it might actually help you in your future studies if you started from F1. Only you can appraise yourself better… go through the past papers of F1 – F3 and see if you’re comfortabe with the course content. If you feel that you’ve already covered everything that’s being examined there then you’re better off chosing the exemption option.

    Keep in mind that while applying for a UK Practice Licence once you pass your ACCA exams and gain membership… passes in F4 (UK Variant), P2 (UK Variant), and P7 (UK Variant) will be critical pre-requisites.
