Hi all,

I have just entered this course
I am exempt from skill and knowledge level exams i.e F1 to F9
I have to start with Professional exams level

I want to give 2 exams in June 2018 diet and it will be my first shot for ACCA exams

I wanted to know if should I go for P5 + P2 OR P5 + P7 ?
(taking private tuition for P5 , other subject i.e P2 or P7 will be self studied)

Can anyone help or share experience?

Thank You

P7 requires knowledge from P2, so if you can’t do P2 and P7 together then do P2 + P5.

I am not interested in P6 as Tax variant of my country isn’t available and doing UK tax doesnt make much sense if I dont want to pursue career in UK (I guess) so just to pass a paper I dont want to give P6.

And my P5 is good as I have studied similar subject earlier and its done I will be appearing for P5

I am just confused between P2 and P7

Pros of giving P2:
Higher pass percent
Calculative subject
P7 requires knowledge of P2

Cons of P2:
Its changing in September
P7 is theory so wont need much effort, I think

So I am basically confused, what to do first?! P2 or P7
