    I am wondering if you would be able to give me some advise.
    I have covered most of the topics covered in F5 in college in my HND and then again in year three of university, however due to being a direct entrant into third year I do not qualify for the F5 exemption. If i have a base knowledge for this topic how difficult do you think the exam will be. I have this same issue with F7 and F9, would it be feasible to do more than one exam at a time, in your opinion.

    thanks

    Certainly it should be feasible to take more that one exam at a time – most people tend to take two each time.
    With regard to the level of difficulty, the best is to have a look at the last exams and see what you think – you can find them on the ACCA website.

    Hi John,

    I was wondering if I could sit for f5 and f6 without passing f2 and f3. Since I want to leave them for DEC exam.

    Thank you

    That is not allowed – you have to pass F2 and F3 first.

    (Why on earth would you want to do that anyway? You need the knowledge from F2 to be able to pass F5!)
