Hi,
Just need some advice. I plan to take F5 in December, I have failed F8 (twice now!!), but now I have discovered OpenTuition I’m hoping it will all become a bit clearer!
Do you think I should leave F8 and do F5 with F7 or F9? (I have completed F4+F6)
I’m just confused as to what to do now. I’m planning to buy the Kaplan Study Text, and revise alongside the OpenTuition course notes and lectures- is this a good plan?
Lastly, is there anywhere on the website where I could find a revision timetable template? I don’t know when I should be starting revising for my December exams!
Thanks!!

I think that you should retake F8 in December (while some things are still fresh in your mind) rather than leaving it until next year – by then you risk having forgotten what you already know.
Yes – getting a Kaplan Study Text is a good idea. The best way of using it is to use it more like a reference book – use it for topics that you have problems with, and for whatever additional background reading you have time for.
Most important is that you obtain Revision/Exam Kits from one of the approved publishers. It is so important to practice as many questions as possible, and these contain lots of exam-standard questions.
Sorry but we do not have a revision timetable template on the website. However, as to when you should start the answer is now!!! There is no such thing as doing too much studying
August 14, 2014 at 12:02 pm #190066Great thank you John! F5 and F8 here we come!!
August 14, 2014 at 1:08 pm #190074Me the same, F5 and F8 this December, hoping for best
August 14, 2014 at 5:08 pm #190118Best of luck to both of you
