    Dear sir ,
    Is it possible to pass the FA paper by only working all the examples of the notes, practice questions and the mock exams?This is because I would not have time to watch the lectures ,I really to pass the FA paper asap.But I’ve noticed for some chapters there is no answer for the examples i have to watch the lectures like chapter 13 but I will watch the lectures to have the answers. Im getting all the answers correctly.is it necessry to watch all the lectures because Im in lack of time.
    Thank you sir ,

    The notes are only lecture notes and are not a Study Text. In the lectures I work through all the examples but also explain and expand on the notes.

    If you are not watching the lectures then you really need to study using a Study Text from one of the ACCA Approved Publishers.

    In addition, however you choose to study, it is essential to buy a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA Approved Publishers. It is full of exam-standard questions for practice when you have finished studying, and practice is vital to being able to pass the exam.

    The ACCA exams are not easy. Paper FA is intended to be on a level with first year university exams.

    Obviously it is your choice and you might be lucky doing just what you suggest. However it might be better to study properly and pass the exam rather than risk failing and then having to take it again.
