    Hi guys! thanks for looking up into this post. i have to decide on what exams i have to write this december within the next few hours left i.e before the standard exam entry closes. i haven’t started studying any yet as i was working full time for past few months and now have decided to take a month off for studying. i have all the study materials(textbook+revisionkit) for F5,F8,F9. need your help on what combination should i do, F5 & F8/ F5 & F9 or just F5 ? pls give me your suggestions keeping in mind that i have only 40 days to prepare.

    i’m planning on studying full time and have no other commitments till exams.once again thank you 🙂

    november is for revision , in my honest opinion give the exams you want in march , because f9 is bit lengthy and all three of these require a lot of practice

    If you haven’t started anything yet, I would wait until the next sitting as already suggested

    It is unlikely that a month off to study will be fully productive, and to study and revise a paper in that time will be a challenge, especially when you have that pressure in the back of your mind

    Surely better to prepare fully and set yourself up with a better chance of passing?

    If you were to take just the one I would go for F8 as even common sense can help with this one.

    I agree with razor180, F5 and F9 especially have large syllabuses whereas the F8 paper is generally more common sense and less rote learning. Just make sure that you learn all of the models.

    I think you can do f5 or f8 in a month. But not sure about f9 as its very lengthy!

    Thank you for your suggestions guys. But I have already studied 2 chapters of f5. Looking to move on with f5 for this December but some of your suggestions make me a little nervous ?.
