Which ACCA courses should I sit next? ACCA's basic rules Skills Module (6 papers) Modules must be sat in order: Skills, then Essentials, then Options Within a module, papers can be sat in any order. You can overlap two modules, as long as you're attempting all the remaining papers in the lower module. For example, you can do F9 and P1 in the same exam sitting, if F9 is the only paper you have outstanding in the Skills module. Essentials Module (3 papers) Options Module (2 papers, from 4) Kaplan recommendations If you're studying part-time and are working (or have other commitments) we recommend that you attempt no more than 2 papers per exam sitting, allowing you to fully focus on those two. I work in an Accountancy Practice I work in Industry, Public Finance, Business, other F7 & F8 F4 & F5 F4 & F5 F6* & F9 F6* & F9 F7 & F8 P1 & P2 P1 & P2 P3 & Option* P3 & Option* Option* Option* In order to keep your qualification on track, you should sit exams in both the June and December sitting. Your selection of two papers should be based on various aspects, such as: Employer requirements If you work in Practice then you may wish to focus on Financial Reporting and Audit first; whilst if you work in Industry then Management Accounting would be a priority. Tax year* It is best to initially sit your tax exams (F6 and optional P6) in June, as the same Finance Act will be examined in December, should you need to resit. Otherwise, you'll need to learn a new Finance Act. Study balance It often helps to combine a 'wordy' paper with a 'numerical' paper - balancing your personal preference and skills for one that you like, with one that you don't. Exemptions If you have an exemption from a Skills paper, you may struggle to pass that subject at a higher level, in the Options module. We've done some pass rate analysis on the best paper combinations, based on two papers at a time. View our recommendations in the table to the right. For a personalised recommendation, based on your individual circumstances, please speak to your local Kaplan centre.
