    thank you in advance for the replies.

    i am working at writing my F1-3 exams in June and I have been reading the BPP 2010 kits, a friend told me that it is outdated for the 2015 examinations.

    How true is this? are there so much differences in the contents compared with the 2015 material? . if yes can you please enumerate some of these differences here.

    please advice me on steps to take

    Simple comparison of F1 syllabus 2010 <1> and 2015 <2> gives that
    1) Micro economy basics was added, leading to F2 cost accounting
    2) Much emphasis was put on topic of Ethics
    3) History of accounting is not of any concern
    much more to mention in deep but was left for topic holder to research.

    Overall, learning F1 by 2010 text books is a good way to increase general intelligence though it will have a great influence on educational efficiency, learning curve and be costly (mostly time). As far as my experience go, Opentuition lectures of 2015 (free and up to date) has it all to score at least 90 (for example Acr elasticity was not mentioned).
    Its for you to decide. I think if you are ready to ace 2010 syllabus with BPP 2010 you will pass 2015 syllabus for sure.

    Steps to take (as I’m doing)
    1) watch opentuition lectures (the best I’ve seen for the highest price I can efford ). Takes a week max.
    2) try pilot paper, if you feel confident register to CBE (Just after OP I scored 70% in 1 hour 50 minuts)
    3) if not purchase BPP exam kit 2015 it cost 9 ponds for more then 100 pages of questions
    . Take you time on questions. if you feel confident register to CBE.
    4) Still not, purchase text book 2015 addition, I went with BPP as it gives almost 500 paves of pure value. Go over step 3)
    5) If you reached here damn… I cant help you.
