APMKaplan Vs BPP

Which set of books are better for P5?

Personal preference really. They are both good, just matters which you are more comfortable with.

I agree that ultimately it will come down to a personal choice. However, I preferred BPP because I was exempted from F5. I found that BPP gives more background reading than Kaplan, it leans more towards the direction of a text book. If you have n't been studying for a while or passed the F5 paper a while back, perhaps you should consider BPP. I however liked Kaplan for the questions that they give at the end of their revision kit. If you do all the questions recommended in their revision kit, under exam conditions, you are almost guaranteed a pass. This worked wonders for me when I was doing P7. My recommendation is: Get a BPP text and a Kaplan revision kit.

Honestly it's been a while since I did F5.

You should go through OT lectures for F5 first before embarking on P5, if it has been a while since you did F5.

Sabaaizaz, I agree with Suf23. I however recommend that you focus on lectures that deal with assumed knowledge required for P5.
