General ACCAhow many papers is it possible to study for if you work full time?

Hi nicr,

You are on the right way. Two papers per sitting is always the optimal choice.
I do not suggest u to take more.

4 by June sounds tough! I'm just starting out too so I'm afraid I don't have any advice for you, but I wondered which 2 you were planning to take after F2 and F3 are done?

All the best!

Thanks for the advice ansi.

Fearnlove - I haven't got as far as figuring out which order to take the exams in yet - I was planning to self study for F2 and then enrol in tuition for F3 & F4 together, however I am not sure with the exam progression rules whether I am allowed to sit F4 if I have not yet passed F3? And I had in my head that I would just do them in number order seeing as I have to do them all eventually and therefore no point in picking and choosing, however having read other people's info it seems that some modules complement others so I guess I need to think about that, I will probably take advice from the tuition provider I plan to enrol with.
Good luck to you too if you are just starting out! Not sure I realise what I am letting myself in for :)

hI nicr good luck with your studies. me too i have started studying after few years break since2008 and i am taking only one exam in June 2012. the reason why i am writting is that you say that you are working full time and want to do 3 papers!!!!!omg i do not know how can you do it. please tell me how do you do it. where do you find the time. i work full time &family and children to take care and find hard to find time to study.
