    Hello sir
    For the dec session i had failed p5.. I scored 49.
    For march session i attempted f6 and p5 my last 2 papers.. And i passed f6.. And did not pass p5..
    Now i am thinking of doing p4.. Because i dont know what mistake i am doing with p5 i really dont know.. I am feeling really really sad about this paper because i dont have any hopes.. So i am planning to do p4 now.. I know it is very difficult.. Last time you told me it has a lot of things to learn so starting from today.. Are 6 weeks enough time to cover the syllabus. Can you give some advice to be successful with p4

    Ok, I still think it is best to redo P5 then start another module in p4 but if you want to start p4 then I would do the following:

    The syllabus for P4 is slightly bigger than P5, so get through the knowledge starting ASAP and try to finish it within next 2-3 weeks, then spend a day or two reading the technical articles and then give yourself as much time as possible at least a few weeks to practice and practice questions, buy yourself an approved exam kit if possible and practice and if possible get some time off work to fully focus on getting exam questions done. Good luck, it is possible but the key is to practice the technical areas from free cash flows to adjusted present value etc..

    Stick with P5.

    P4 can be done within 6 weeks if you use a paid for revision course but it will cause you major stress
