Acca F7 Study Text Download
Chloe Sarnoff
Hi I need to score a high mark for the law exam, preferably above 90. Should I use the study text along with the notes, lectures and revision kit or are the lectures, notes and revision kit sufficient for scoring a high mark?
Most tutors will recommend that you primarily study from the course notes, lectures and revision kit. If you prepare for the exam in a sensible strategic manner for example revise a chapter then do questions on that chapter, you will find that you are better placed to do well in the exam.
Re the study text, technically everything in the study text is examinable but most students find it hard to digest and it can often be overload and overwhelming. As a tutor having taught ACCA law for over 14 years I have never advised students read the study text back to back. However, I would say that if you are aiming for above 90% then you may want to occasionally dip into some chapters, but only after having gone through the lectures, notes and revision kit.
More sensible would be to primarily use the lectures, notes and use the revision kit to fill in the blanks. If you can master the questions/revision kit then that is more likely to enhance your marks then reading the study text from front to back which can often be counter productive.
Hi. You mentioned question practice so should I invest in exam question kits from both Kaplan and BPP or will only Kaplan be sufficient? Also, you mentioned occasionally dipping into chapters in the study text. Could you please elaborate on that? As in which chapters you are talking about.
Those who passed with high marks surely did use the study text. But be wary that over use of the study text can often be counterproductive. You really need to exercise your discretion. Certainly if you really want to score over 90% then yes use the study text but most importantly do as many questions as you possibly can!!
I am going to start studies for F4 for coming March exam. Due to personal reasons now only i am going to start studies.
I am planning to study Open tuition Study material provides (Not the entire study text as Kaplan/BPP but important parts with summary notes) along with exam kit.
My target is to pass the exam.
With this plan, will I be able to do this in mar?
and without referring the kaplan/BPP study text will I be able to pass?
Because I have no time now for all
Just to confirm, I would recommend that at the very least you listen to all of our recorded lectures and cross reference with the notes. It is absolutely fundamental that you work through the questions that are found in the P&R kit. If you do this diligently and work consistently throughout the week, you should be in a solid position to pass the exam.
I've got a huge stack of BPP study guides for every single module of ACCA. Unfortunately they're 10 years old so whilst the modules have changed in name and topics might have shifted between modules, the explanations and questions are still relevant. Does anyone know where (if anywhere) these would be of use? Maybe just chucking them in the paper recycling is the best thing - I've not referred to them in the last 10 years, but someone currently studying might find them of use to get extra question practice?
I've actually still got some of my ATT BPP text books now 3 years old in a cupboard. I don't look at them for all the reasons above, so you've just made up my mind for me - I should put them in the bin!
Somewhere here at work is a box which contains, amongst other things, a Carter's Advanced Accounts which I think is circa 1950s and a book by someone called Munro from even earlier. about 1920. There is also an ICAEW thin book on Standard Costing and a few others.All of these were the product of buying a house where I bought the contents in 1985.
The only really useful book I still have that I use is my circa 1983 copy of Samuels & Wilkes Management of Company Finance , I have even bought a more up to date version, and I do still have on the office bookcase my Tiley Revenue Law published in 1981, the first tax book I ever bought, covering amomgst other topics Development Land Tax and Capital Transfer Tax. Cannot now remember anything about either though in 1983 I sat an exam that covered both.

I have been using opentuition.com since i started my ACCA journey and have 2 papers left. they are free ACCA tuition provider and provide great help and supports too. you can ask questions and get replied at any point in time.
use there resource to learn the knowledge and read their exam technique, join wattsapp group to share ideas and free study material from approved provider. most important point to emphasis on is revision kit make sure to find one and use it along side optntuition material and advice.
I would suggest BPP text books and P&R, I think it makes it easier to do self study, If you needed more explanation you could go to opentuition.com.
And it also depends on what you like yourself than others, because some find F9 easier, some find F7 or even F8, but the question is are you good in numbers or written? Then choose which one to do.
I have used OpenTuition and practice and revision kits from BPP and Kaplan (find BPP better but it's just a matter of personal preferences).
Read the technical articles and watch any postcasts available from ACCA website and practice as many past papers as possible.
For me that was enough.
Just one exam to do.
