    Hello,

    Do you think its possible to pass P4 through self study or better to take tuition?

    For self study – which materials would you advise?

    Thank you

    I’ve been doing it. Just sat a retake of the exam in December.

    Its do able, its hard, but i think its definatelty a worthwhile paper though, the knowledge gained i think its really quite essential, i think it should be a compulsaory paper

    to be honest, once you get to grips with it, and have studied it, its not that bad, i think the main problem with it is the exams, theyre SO time pressured its un believable

    BEING A PROFESSIONAL TUTOR FOR LAST 5 YEAR SPECIALLY IN P4 I RECOMMEND YOU TO TAKE TUITION.
    TUTION PROVIDER WILL ASSIST YOU IN GETTING CONCEPTS IN HALF AS MUCH TIME AS YOU WOULD OTHERWISE TAKE WHILE SELF STUDYING HENCE PROVIDING YOU WITH MORE TIME FOR YOUR REVISION.
    EFFECTIVE REVISION CAN PROVE TO BE MAKE OR BREAK FOR YOUR EXAM.
    KEEPING IN MIND IT IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO PASS P4 THROUGH SELF STUDY.
    MATERIAL I ADVISES FOR P4 KAPLAN STUDY TEXT AND
    REVISION KITS.

    Thank you so much for your advise.

    I will have to think seriously about what I am going to do.
    I just sat for P2 n P3….waiting for the results but not too confident.
    That’s why I wanted to see if I could start studying P4 on my own.

    Thank you Carl29 & mkamranrajj58
