    Hello, there are two types of Lectures on F8.. Live and Studio Recorded..
    im going to study entire F8 from these lectures, can you suggest which ones are better/appropriate for F8 iNT.

    and also do they provide whole syllabus coverage? Since after watching them im planning to practise all the past papers i can.

    They were delivered for an international paper audience but there’s no problem using them for, say, the UK version as there is little difference in the exams.

    The studio lectures cover, more or less, the whole syllabus. There are some elements missing from the live lectures. Some people prefer studio because they are rather more precise in their use of English, but inevitably less dynamic. The live lectures are recordings of real lectures with ‘ums’, ‘ahs’ etc and perhaps spoken more quickly. Some people find them easier to listen to because they are a bit more dynamic (insofar as that’s possible with auditing).

    Try both. If you prefer live note the areas of the notes that are not covered and fill the gaps with studio material. The notes are a transcription of the studio lectures.

    Your plan to cover past paper questions is excellent!

    By the way i have another question. Do you have any suggestions regarding approach to preparation? Like which chapters i should do first followed by which ones?
    Any suggestions will be appreciated thanks

    i just watched Studio recorded lectures, they were so straight forward.. so i decided to try Live lectures, they are far more interesting as i like to take interest in my studies rather then just doing them for their only purpose.

    So i decided to listen to Live ones rather then studio.
    i noticed in intro there are 7 main parts in audit.
    A- Framework & regulation
    B- internal audit.
    and so on.

    So i want to know which ones are totally covered in Live lectures? the leftover ill do from Studio ones.

    Thank you alot for your time gromit
