I just completed my ACCA journey in September 2017 EXAMINATION,
IT TOOK ME 6 YEARS TO COMPLETE ,
THOUGH NOW I SEE IT I COULD REALL CAN DO IT IN 3 YEARS MAX.
HOWEVER I HAVE DONE IT ALL ON PART TIME BASIS ,AND ON SELF STUDY BASIS (never really took any classes)OPEN TUITION WAS GREAT HELP TO ME IN THIS REGARD ,ALL THE TEACHERS ARE GREAT BUT I SPECIFICALLY WANT TO THANKS SIR John for P4, and Sir Kent Garrett for p5,I DONT KNOW HOW SOMEONE CANNOT PASS WITH SUCH GREAT TUTORS ,
MY SUGGESTION FOR NEW AND ON GOING STUDENTS IS TO NEVER GET Hopeless ,never quit believing in your self
If u get stuck keep trying ,make incremental efforts and you will get your reward
THANKS AND ALL THE BEST
THANKS OPENTUITION
I LOVE OPENTUITIONOctober 16, 2017 at 10:37 am #411792Well done and congrats to you!!

October 22, 2017 at 3:57 am #412813Tell us your marks for each exam? And if you passed them all first time?
Can you also advise if it is a big jump in difficulty of P level exams from F level? I have last F level to do (f8) before I move to P level but I am a bit worried about them. Especially if I was mostly getting my results in f level were 51, 57, 59 and 61 – will it be similar in P level if I continue studying putting the same amount of time? Or do marks tend to go lower once you start sitting P level exam if you spend the same amount of time.
Did you feel like you had to study more for P level exams than for F level?
If anyone knows, can then answer as well please !

@ thatgirl
My average number for each exam are 55-60 but numbers are not relevant issue in acca exams ,
Professional level exams are off course different from skill level exam ,
I am happy you ask me this question because I have study acca completely on self study basis I was also in trouble when I took this jump
And there are three professional papers which I had reappeared
P1. 2 attempts
P3. 2 attempts
P5. 3 Attempts
However all fundamental level papers are on first attempt,In professional level papers the main focus is on professional approch of students in identifying and solving challenges that company faces in exam question scenario, analytical skills of students and time management skills of students,
calculations and mathematics would be small share of exams marks,You may need less time on reading the text in professional papers because most of it you already read in skill level exams ,but you ll need special time and attention in mastering analytical skills
Through kits and past exam papers ,
Do them as many as possible and as many times as possible before examBest of luck !!!

Thanks very much! Yes I will follow your advice and make sure I practice exam kit/past papers. why did you fail P1 and P3 that are supposed to be the easiest exams from professional level? Now I’m worried 🙂 do you think it is better to take p1 and p3 in march and p2 in June or other way around ?October 24, 2017 at 9:30 pm #413094Well it’s all about what type of papers you feel you can easily manage ,
P1 ,p3 and p5 are theoretical based analytical papers where you have to apply your knowledge to the given scenarios ,where as p2 and p4 are more number based papers ,I knew few fellow students who find p4 very hard, they eventually changed the paper after 3_4 attempts ,I on the other hand find p4 very easy and passed it on 1 st Attempt ,
I suggest if you are theoratical person then you should attempt p1 along with p3, however if you are good in numbers then you should attempt p2 ,with p4 or taxation (p7 I think)
And you are right about p3 it’s easiest of all professional papers but p1 is the tricky one ,( specially if you are number person)
And You are a number person If you love doing your f5 ,and f9
