Thinking of attempting p7 this December as I just sat p1 in September and wondering how much (if any) in common its syllabus has to p1? I will be going through p7 syllabus today or tomorrow anyway but would like to hear from those who passed them both, especially if you passed or attempted them both fairly recently, e.g. this year.
Any information will be much appreciated.
Regards,
Pawel

This will make p7 a very distant cousin of p1, I believe :p
I appeared for p1 and p7 both in June 2015. Might I say that my P7 knowledge helped me in P1 but nothing of the sort for P7, it’s entirely different
