    I am really struggling with ACCA. I decided to study it independently. I am 42 and unemployed. I have chosen to sit F5, F6 and F7 in December.

    This seems impossible. I do not understand how people can get through so much material in 12 weeks?

    I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

    If you are struggling in the way that you say then the decision to create such stress by doing 3 subjects in one sitting should be reconsidered.
    I am sorry to hear about your current situation – 2020 has been an awful year!
    Clearly if you have lots of time on your hands then filling it with constructive study is of course a good idea, but that does not guarantee that success will be achieved at its end. ACCA is not a quick fix and is a long and demanding road to navigate – what accountancy exams have you attempted / passed and when – and have you been working in an accounting role?

    I had a telephone call from one of the Kaplan tutors. We have devised a plan.

    He thinks I should be able to obtain a full time job even without accounting experience as a part qualified accountant as I would have completed the Skills stage.

    Acccountancy has been making me miserable. But at least I have a clear strategy now.

    I am pleased to hear that you now have a plan – good luck for the future!
