    I dont know why people like BPP text book; to me it’s alway too lengthen and complicated in organizing. Truly worst text! Many tuition prepares lecture note by copying Kaplan textbook format.

    @Duong
    depends really on a paper. I used only BPP study text for F5 with doing hardly any revision KIT (which i regret). I managed to go only through past papers – although i passed with a quite nice mark thanks to OT lectures.
    I used also BPP for F9 but only as a complement morelikely focusing on revision kit.

    I must agree – in terms of F8 im dissapointed with BPP. When I opened F8 text book i really couldnt read it. I made few approaches but the text was very daunting – with little time left i see no point going through BPP textbook.

    GUYS BEWARE! anyone thinking of ever purchasing LSBF study interactive please don’t waste your money. It’s a complete scam and especially if you’re thinking of claiming the refunds back forget the money. I have never seen such a daylight robbery.

    I find BPP Text for F8 quite long-winded and difficult. I started reading the OT study notes on F8 but sadly (and this is not criticism, as I appreciate these guys are helping us all out for free) I find there are so many grammatical errors/incomplete words that it was giving me a headache, so I had no option but to leave it. I am going to go and see if the Kaplan text has something better to offer.

    I bought Kaplan’s text book and BPP revision kit and I have to admit that many things are missed in the Kaplan’s book. (ie detailed procedures in external and internal audit)
