    There is no reason why you should not be able to pass F1 and F2 in the same sitting – most people sit 2 exams each time.

    If you watch our free lectures, then the only book that is worth buying is a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers, because they contain lots of exam standard questions and the more questions you practice the better.

    The syllabuses are on the ACCA website, as are details of the approved publishers (BPP, Becker and Kaplan). Depending on where you live you might be able to get them in bookshops, or alternatively you can order the books online. (For BPP you can get a 20% discount on the price by clicking on the link that appears on each of our pages on this website).

    The first thing you should do is download our free Study Guides for F1 and F2 – they have a programme of how to study.

    (I assume that you have registered with the ACCA? You have to be registered to be able to attempt the exams. The details of how to do it are on the ACCA website)
