dear sir,
are there any significant changes in the p2 syllabus for june2013 exams?? and all these lectures including notes are sufficient to get a good grip on paper p2 for june 2013 exams as i am planning to start studying p2 paper frm OT?? and one more thing i am meaning to ask is that i have cleared my f7 paper in june 2012 and now i am planning to sit for p2 paper in june 2013..due to a semester gap as i was giving other papers in dec 013 i am a bit out of practice so can u please advice me what should be my initial approach to start p2 as whether shuld i revise f7 concepts first and then start -2 or directly start p2 …what should be my initial approach??I suggest you must have a study text from an ACCA approved publisher, while you would listen to the lectures in OT. OT does not post lectures covering the complete syllabus, but only selective, in my opinion about 80%. But I agree the course notes cover the entire syllabus. Again comprehension is lacking in course notes as it is there in study text. However I have to admit that OT is a great help for students like me, who listen to lectures, though selectively, which otherwise would not have been possible. Thanks to OT
well thanx fr replying back butr you did’nt answered my 2nd question that should i revise my f7 concepts first inorder to start p2 or should i directly start p2 by taking lectures and study notes…what should be my initial approach and if you recommend revising f7 concepts then which topics should i most emphasize on most…thank you lukin frward for your reply…
Most definately practice preparing consolidations & cash flows from F7 because P2 takes the knowledge of these at F7 to a far more advanced level and therefore you need to have the grounding in them that F7 provides, otherwise you might struggle with them at P2 level.
Those are the two main areas that I would advise that you brush up on before starting on P2. I wouldn’t worry too much about revising any of the rest of F7 before you start on P2, as the accounting standards related stuff is all covered again in P2, and you can refer back to F7 study texts if necessary as you go along rather than do it before you start.
