Is 3 months enough to pass p6 and p7.
June 13, 2019 at 2:50 pm #520391Hi @blaze118,
Well, personally won’t recommend giving 2 papers and especially the Strategic level ones…
Not saying that its impossible, just that there is a lot of burden and overload for a student.
And it gets even more difficult with commitment like work, family and friends.
The Professional Strategic level papers are a serious level up from the F papers. You must give ample time to prepare for the exam…no one should expect to pass with just a preparation of a week or so.The recommended preparation period for each of these exams are 16 weeks (according to the Study Support Guide on the ACCA website).
That being said and I will repeat myself, I am not saying giving two papers in a single sitting is impossible. There have been students who have cleared both the papers in a single sitting but few of them. The probability of a pass is low in such a scenario.
Even if you are still determined and adamant to do so, then you need to make sure you give ample and appropriate time to EACH of these two papers to prepare (that includes to study and practice) You have to strike the right balance, making sure you don’t neglect the preparation phase of any of the two. You will have to be extremely strict and disciplined with yourself. No slacking is allowed! You will have to put a break on your social life during the preparation phase. And most important, have a structured study plan.
But if you think you won’t able to meet the demands of each paper or are sceptical about that pass than its best to delay one for the next sitting and focus on just one.
I strongly believe it is better to delay a paper and give a successful attempt, than go unprepared to give an unsuccessful attempt. As the old saying goes, “Slow and steady wins the race”
However, the above is just my personal opinion…you know your situation better and we can’t judge anyone’s potential or capabilities.
Hope this helps.
All the best!
