    Hi sir,
    Hope,you’re doing well.
    After clearing PM which paper do you suggest to take next ?
    Is FM a good choice after PM?
    If not which paper is good to take after PM?
    Kindly, reply.

    The ACCA recommends taking the papers in the order in which they are listed (which would mean after PM taking TC then FR then AA then FM) and this is a sensible recommendation.

    However you are allowed to take them in any order you want, so you can take Paper FM next. They are however completely different papers and there is no real link between them. Also it helps a little to have taken Paper TX before FM because there is a little tax knowledge needed for Paper FM.

    Thank you, so much. Sir, for the insight .
    I chose to write my PM exam right after my MA exam.
    Is MA linked to FM?
    Because, it hasn’t been long since i wrote my MA exam.

    I skipped corporate law and directly wrote PM. And since I have started my session exams and f4 is similar to on demand exams along with which subject do you suggest that i take my f4 exams ?
    As, I don’t want to miss a session and applied skills exams have vast Portions.
    As,we get around 3months between session papers when is it good to write f4 exams ?
    Kindly, clarify.

    The only topics from Paper MA that are relevant for Paper FM are interest and investment appraisal. Both are revised anyway in my free Paper FM lectures.

    Paper LW is not linked to any of the other papers and so it doesn’t really matter when you take it.
