FRF7 INT Dec 2011 study group

Aansi15y ago
Dear all,

In about a week we are going to start our F7 study group. I need to decide on days and timings.
First of all, I need to decide whether we will have 1 or 2 sessions per week.
Till now in previous papers there were always 2 sessions per week, but it appeared to be time wasting and not very efficient.
I need your suggestions.

As for days, I'm deciding whether to put sessions on weekend , say Saturday, or during weekdays, say Tuesday.

Week day timing can't be earlier then 5 pm UK time for me.
Weekend timing - any time during the day, but preferably morning or evening, say 8-9 am Uk or 5 pm UK.

If you are interested, please vote here.

thank you !

have a nice day,
ansi

Hi Ansi,

I like the way you conducted the last session. I would prefer weekend morning - 8-9am.

Hi Ansi,

Weekend timing- prefer morning than afternoon.
During the week- any time after 5PM. your suggestion is fine ( better after 6:00PM).

great early start.

Thanks so much for organizing it.

May be we need 2 sessions for F7.

@asb006,

thank you for this positive feedback! :)
I also prefer weekend morning. I just hope 8 am UK won't be too early for others.
Let's wait what they say.

@sue888,
I was thinking about your comment and i think maybe there will be two sessions per week. Just like i told u in my e-mail.
One on tuesday at 6 pm Uk - during weekday sessions we will study theoretical bits and short examples.
One on saturday - 8 or 9 am uk time , during which we will try to practice questions from kit and maybe worthy examples from technical articles, if there will be any.

again, let's wait for comments of others.

The weekday time isn't too bad. But I guess I'll have to miss the weekend sessions as before.
8 a.m. UK is 3 a.m. for me :(
Aasb00615y ago#6
weekday session please make it 6:30p.m if possible
Aansi15y ago#7
@stasi,
that's bad :( that's so so bad ...we could arrange in the evening then like 4 pm uk. Just as we did before. But i need opinion of others.

@asb006,
okay ... i hoped so much that we start a bit earlier this time.
But well, okay :)

Hi...though i wish to join in too but 6.30pm is actually 1.30am for me :( and i have P3 session starting at 10pm which is 5.00am.Therefore, i would like to download chat history and any other notes you upload Ansi. Thank you. :)
Aansi15y ago#21
@kzzrd,

thank you for your interest :) it's good that you wish to follow the group even just by chat history :)

well in case if one day you stay up late , u can join the discussion itself ;)
Aasb00615y ago#22
hi Ansi,

For F7 - I think it is every Tuesday 6:30p.m and Saturday 9a.m - do we need to cover anything before the session - have not done financial reporting before!!

For F8- it is Thursday 6:30p.m and did we fix any other date for F8.....

@asb006,

you are right about days and timings.
You absolutely need to cover relevant chapters before session. I will post schedules with names of topics during weekend.

Use all the resources available: kaplan, bpp, lsbf, ot, exp, emilewolf and maybe others.
I will buy kaplan's books first. But next month will get bpp as well.
in any case we can start even with 2010 books as some topics never change, or change unsignificantly.

for F8 i thought to have only my session per week and to see how it goes. If i feel we need additional session i will fix another date . And if it will be okay , then we'll stay with one per week.
