Hi,
I have just passed p1-p3 and I am now going onto the optional papers.
I have been exempted from f5 and f9 due to my degree which I did 4 years ago (there are some topics in both f5 and f9 that I do not recall covering at all). I work in management accounts so I am inclined to do p5 especially as it follows on from p3.
I am not interested in doing tax as I just about scraped a pass in f6.
Ideally, I would do p4 but I think it might be to much given my lack of knowledge of f9?
This leaves me with p7 which i never really thought of doing and was not a big fan of audit after failing f8 first time, however, I did get 75% on 2nd attempt in f8. Is there overlap with p2?
Therefore, my question really is whether I should go with p7 based on the fact that p4 might end up being too much. Also, how difficult is p7?
Many thanks!
August 20, 2014 at 3:41 pm #191679I did P4 and P7..
Cleared P4 in first attempt and P7 in second, and just managed to secure in I guess 60%+
I found p4 very interesting but much technical, it needs a big practice and exposure.. P7 is also good but practice is mandatory for all paper no matter they are numerical or theoretical..
As these are final papers so ask you to behave like a qualified person in writing and reading 🙂
Yes, P2 knowledge is key to pass P7..
P7 is suggested from my side, but final decision is your.. - AuthorPosts
