self study with open tuition resources

Yeah I would like to know that too, and how long did it take to cover the whole course thru OT videos?

As is clearly stated on the notes download page the notes should be used in conjunction with the lectures and students must have a current edition ACCA-Approved Revision Kit – in which you would also find Approved Mock Exams and Answers with Marking Schemes.
(P7 Qs back to 2011 are NOT sufficient preparation as the AAA exam is very different and the reporting standards, in particular, have changed in the meantime.)

AAA examines the financial reporting aspects of IFRS that are assumed knowledge of SBR – so any candidate who ignores ACCA’s recommendation and does not study for SBR in advance of studying for AAA must clearly do something about this – for example use OpenTuition’s SBR resources.

The resources can be sufficient but UNDERSTANDING the subject material is key. Without this you won’t be able to respond appropriately to the audit issues in the scenarios.

What material will you need?

1. Knowledge of IAS / IFRS specified in SBR examinable documents;
2. Knowledge of ISAs (there are 34 plus 1 ISQC);
3. 37 requirements in the ACCA ethical code.

Practice past year questions to familiarise yourself with exam techniques.

Remember that in each exam scenarios are very different. So memorizing answers from an earlier question is useless. Application of knowledge to audit issues in the scenario is the thing that will earn you marks.
