P1 & P3 Papers

Hi,

I am planning to give P1 & P3 in June-18 window. What if I am able to pass only one of them? can I reappear on the unsuccessful paper in Sep-18 or I have to give SBL and the paper that I have passed will also gets wasted.

You need to pass both in June or your pass will not count and will have to sit the strategic business leader as well.
P1 and P3 won’t exist from September 18 onwards so you will not be able to sit them then.

I read the SBL syllabus, I think it is a much better and more relevant paper in my opinion. I am going to lose my P1 pass, but it’s ok. I prefer to learn the new paper if that’s where the future leads in the accounting world.

Studying for P1 was great and is the best one I’ve done in ACCA so far and I believe, extremely important for accountants. I think it should have been left as it was and just abolished P3 completely or add it as one of the options paper.
