Partnerships are not examinable in Paper F3. They were removed from the syllabus a long long time ago!!!

I guess I'm doing an exam kit based on an old syllabus? It's BPP 2010 Are there any other omitting or adding I should do when relying on this exam kit? (Although I plan to do a more latest exam kit after I finish this one)

A lot has changed since 2010 - you need to look at the syllabus on the ACCA website. You must get a new Revision Kit quickly - the syllabus has changed, the terminology has changed, and the format of the exam has changed. If you watch our free lectures then they are a complete course for F3 and cover everything you need to pass well (and are up-to-date!!). But you must practice questions from a current edition of the Revision Kit.
