    Hi,

    You will be fine having studied the P2 materials as there are not a huge amount of changes to the syllabus, it is more of a change to the structure of the exam.

    You will definitely need a revision kit for SBR, but you should be OK to continue to use the study text, but please remember that complex groups now lo longer appear on the SBR syllabus.

    Thanks

    SBR is easier compared to p2 ?? I went through the SBR specimen and exam pattern looks same as to P2 paper. May I know what makes SBR different from P2 that requires you to buy new SBR revision kit?

    May I also know which text will be best for SBR for the students who are self studying? Kaplan or BPP?

    They are of the same difficulty.

    The first question will no longer require you to prepare the full consolidation. You will be required to prepare extracts and explanations of the calculations.

    Ethics is examined more and current issues less.

    Thanks

    They are both equally as good and I’d stick with what you’ve used previously as the style will be familiar.

    Thanks
