    Hello,

    I’ve been registered for the December session (9th), so the exam is in exactly a month. I’ve already passed the F4 and F8 exams on the first try using only OT notes and lectures (no books), and revision kits.

    But as I started going through the F7 OT notes and lectures today I feel like they might not be enough to pass this one.

    I already have a BPP book that friend lent me, so do you think I should read BPP instead? Or is OT enough?

    Also, I was thinking of spending approx 5 hours every day until the exam. Do you think it would be enough?

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    I would concentrate on exam practice together with going through Opentuition resources , especially targeting areas of concern that emerge to you through exam practice. There’s nothing wrong with having a quick flick through book if you have downtime to remind and reassure yourself about areas but I wouldn’t get bogged down in the study text or workbook. Concentrate your revision time with Opentuition resources and exam practice especially as time constraint becomes increasing factor. Opportunity cost of using study text is time and energy that could be spent on more exam focused study. Hope this helps.
