ACCA papers time dedication?!
I’m considering to sit ACCA exams but I would like to know what is time commitment needed to pass a single ACCA paper?
Apparently, a typical candidate spend 100 hours per paper but since I have already covered CFA 1/2 and that I’ve a degree in Accounting and Finance (with exemption for paper 1 to 8) I guess there must be some overlap.
Based on the Kaplan text books it seems to be VERY time consumming each books are around 800 pages… I don’t know what would be the best strategy to pass those exams quickly. The pass threshold is only 50%… Based on my background, is it enough just to watch Kaplan lecture (which are roughly 16 hours) and practice core book questions?
So, I would be interested to get some feed back from somebody how sat both CFA and ACCA.
Thanks |
