    Hi John,
    I am done with paper F1 and F3, and I am looking forward to choose my next combination of exams for June 16 (Including CBEs). I want to attempt 3 exams in June 16.
    I am uncomfortable with the combination F2,F4,F5 as F2 and F5 are extremely tough to be written together and I assume you’ll agree to this because F5 uses prior knowledge gained from F2. I have therefore pointed my spotlight to the combination F2,F4,F6. I would appreciate if you could give me your valuable suggestion.

    I actually don’t think it makes any difference whether you take F2, F4 and F5, or F2, F4 and F6. I don’t think either combination is easier or harder than the other 🙂

    you mean it would not increase difficulty at all if I take F2, F4 and F5?
    With no prior F2 knowledge I would be studying F5 side by side, would that work?

    Why not? Provided that you watch our lectures on F2 before moving on to our F5 lectures 🙂

    I see, hence I cannot study F2 and F5 side by side but in fact I will have to complete F2 first before moving on to F5. Am I correct?

    If you do decide to take F2 and F5 at the same time, then yes – you should finish studying F2 before studying F5.
