    i did pass f2 f3 in which i followed the OT lectures + notes + bpp revision kit.
    Now i decided to do f1 and f4.

    F2 F3 contains calculations and concepts ,which seems to me a practical paper.
    while F1 F4 is more like a theoretical paper with lot of theories to remember.

    My question is for papers like F1 F4 do we need to buy study text and go through it in detail for them or i just stick to the way i prepared for F2 F3 and no necessary of going thru the study text?

    cause i have seen one of my friend’s bpp text for f1, and its overloaded with so many informations that i fear how one can remember so many things. Kaplan seems to be okay a bit.So does knowing all this information really important for clearing F1 F4 paper.
    so plz advice,i want to score good in F1 F4.

    You cannot answer questions in F1 and F4 simply by applying common sense. Both papers rely heavily on knowledge and applied knowledge. Therefore, you have to reas and learn theories, laws etc.

    Many people succeed at F1 and F4 by only using OT notes and lectures and a revision kit from one of the big publishers.
