    I was planning to write 2 papers in the September sitting. The papers I planned were AFM and SBL. I also wish to do the EPSM before the exams. This is my second attempt for SBL after i failed by scoring 46 marks in March. The main problem with me in March was time management. I have started studying AFM a little bit but haven’t covered much yet. I have my college exams at the end of this month which will go on for 2 weeks. So i have only around 5-6 weeks for AFM, Sbl and the EPSM. Is this sufficient time to go through all of these? I can manage SBL in about a week or so but even then would 5 weeks be enough for AFM and EPSM? I am in a lot of doubt as I don’t want to mess up again by and waste money by not preparing well enough for both subjects and losing all of it.

    If someone can give any sort of advice it would be really appreciated. Thanks 🙂

    Only you can work out if you have sufficient time. Perhaps start EPSM but you don’t actually have to rush to finish it completely. Download the SBL retake guide and AFM Study support guides from ACCA www and use the plans to help plan your time. READ the “Read the mind” article for SBL asap and the one for AFM when you’re ready to revise.
