    Hi All,

    So I have just signed up for ACCA and have gotten exemptions for exams F1-F4 inclusive.

    I was wondering if I could get some advice on which exam to take. I don’t want to take F5 or F9 at the moment since I didn’t really enjoy management accounting and so would prefer to leave those until later.

    I was also trying to see which exam out of the 3 mentioned would be the easiest to pass but I seem to get mixed results (which also hasn’t helped as much as I thought)

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thanks 🙂

    Maybe try F6 which has the highest pass rate (UK Variant) from those 3.
    Personally it was my least enjoyed paper and exam but I did other variant.

    If you learn rules and pro formas and practice past papers it should be a good start for your ACCA race.

    Hi!
    None of the ACCA exams are easy on their own. They might be when compared to other. Try not to leave/skip any paper just because you don’t like it or you think it’s hard as you have to do them later anyway.

    If you like learning rules and applying them go for F6.
    If you are good at theoretical papers then go for F8.
    If none of the above, then F7 is the remaining choice.

    Do read the the “ACCA Paper F7/F6/F8 – Key to success” on every paper’s page (where there is a big key) to get know the nature of the paper.

    Watch the intro lecture too.

    Good Luck!
