Hi
I';ve completed p1 and p2.
Looking to take p3 in dec along with P5. Is anyone else looking to do the same?
firstly is this alloweD?.. Secondly if i pass p5 and fail p3..does my p5 pass still count?
Is this a good combination?..
Also, could you advise how much of these papers are numerical/theoretical ..
Thanks in advance
Ask the Tutor ACCA SBL
P3 ..along with P5
Hi there,
I am also thinking of doing P3 & P5 together in Dec 2014 sitting. If you are interest in studying together please let me know.
Regards,
11y ago#2P3 and P5 is a good combination. You can't do P5 without P1, P2 and P3 being entered or passed.
I have taken this combination in June 2014 and manage to pass P3 with 61% and P5 with 75%.
I would say many topics are overlap, eg: the BCG matrix, Ansoff (although P3 more details than P5 , Porter 5 Forces, Business Process Reengineering and etc)
My time allocation in these 2 subjects is (P3/P5 = 70/30). The content of P5 is not that heavy compare to P3.
11y ago#4Yes, there is a lot of overap, but it is very important to study the ACCA questions and answers in both P3 and P5.
