    Hi, just registered on the forum and finding some great information. I’m taking the F3 exam on December 12th and want to get going with the study. I just read that that there will be some changes in the exam for December. What changes will these be? What text would you recommend I study? I’m exempt from F1 and F2 and did well at accounting in school. Will that help a lot for the exam? Thanks for the help, just want to clear up some of this stuff before I get going! Oh actually, Is it ok if my exemptions are not fully sorted before completing the F3? Its just a matter of sending off the information really though!

    In my opinion BPP is the best study text. acca has given them platinum status. kaplan and gtg study text are given gold status.
    you can download f3 syllabus from acca website. you have to purchase the study text for the new syllabus.
    f3 you can write first if you wish to.

    Hey! The ACCA website has moved its contents around and it’s not showing the f3 context change anymore. I am due sitting mine on the 9th. I have LSBF’s book that was valid until the end of November. Do you think that the lectures on this website will be enough to help me with the new additions?

    Yes. download the notes and watch all lectures, then practice test question for any topic you have studied

    You will probably never want to go back to LSBF 😀
