Which FIA Exams are needed?

See my response to the recent post here https://opentuition.com/topic/admission-requirements-for-fab-fma-ffb/ If you have the minimum qualifications for the ACCA Qualification you start with AB, FA and MA in the ACCA Qualification. If you don't have the minimum qualifications, you can still start with the same exams - but in the Foundations qualification rather than the ACCA Qualification. It would then be up to you to decide whether to start with any of the earlier foundation qualifications.

I read a few forums and the ACCA website, but it just doesn't make sense to me. If a person can start at FAB, FFA and FMA then wouldn't it be the same as doing the ACCA F1 F2 and F3? Or, if someone enters through the Foundations route, after completing FAB FFA and FMA, do they still have to complete FA1-2 and MA1-2 before they can progress to either CAT or F4? So all in all, when someone is entering through the Foundation levels, they have to complete 7 exams in total before progressing to CAT or F4? Thank you

Can someone please clear this?

I have the same inquiry. Did you get any lead?

@Areesha1810 please see my post on March 3, 2019 above. The point is that the ACCA Qualification has eligibility requirements. There is no requirement to complete the four lower level certificates.

For FIA qualifications, you typically need to pass exams like F1, F2, and F3 to complete the foundation level.
