    this is my first P level paper which professional paper should i give along with AFM in this june attempt i do not wish to take up AAA as an option or APM since the passing rates are the lowest of all paper . i would like a subject which involves more of number crunching and less of descriptive parts.

    Please refer to the section “Best Combination” in this article https://opentuition.com/acca/plan-your-acca-exam-journey – there is a recommendation not to attempt more than one at a time:

    “At Strategic Professional Level, a majority of students for all exams except AAA responded that they are better taken “standalone”.”

    There is a link in the article to “Survey Results Best Combination”
    https://opentuition.com/acca/survey-results-when-taking-2-acca-exams-which-is-the-best-combination

    After standalone – “most popular” is APM (but only 14%).

    SBL is marginally more popular than ATX (8% v 6%) – but if you’re wanting less descriptive you probably want ATX – but why not look at a recent past exam and see what you might prefer? Or skim read the one page summary of the syllabus in the syllabus and study guide?
