Congrats. I started Acca an self studied for my first paper (F2) because just had my first baby an can’t afford tuition and I failed. So now I’m discouraged an can’t afford to move forward but I’m happy for you.

Thanks Nush. Look out for my next Q&A where I will address your question 🤗
I am self studying as well. I enrolled in FIA last year October and I completed FA1, FA2 and my MA1 exam is this Friday. I use BPP Text books and Revision Kits. I’m hoping to do my MA2 exam in June and do two of the applied knowledge courses before end of year, probably FBT and FMA(exempts for BT and MA). What works for me is planning my week and days. I do 2 hrs of studying Mon-Fri and at least 8 hours on weekends(4 a day). I know as the courses get harder I won’t be able to do as much exams a year but I’ll scale back when necessary.

Thank you for this great video. I would like to know more on the exam structure part. Let's say a person is doing 4 modules per year on the pro level. Does it mean they are going to write 1 exam of any of the 4 modules in every quarter of the year then finish or it's exams every quarter on all modules until the last exams at year end? I hope you understand my question. And also what is the pass mark for professional level(mark needed to pass)? The average and the pass mark of each module.
Congratulations
Hello Goodday I’m would like to just begin my Acca journey. Currently an accounting student in my 3rd year but please ma’am I need advice if I should start as an in school or wait till I finish my undergrad.
Belinda, if I may ask, out of curiosity, why did you choose ACCA over ACA?
I'm wondering whether it's worth signing up with a learning provider. The fees from these providers are high and I'll have to pay out of my own pocket. But many people recommend signing up with a learning provider 🤔 There's so many resources out there for self study, I'm gonna look at it as an option
You're my motivator

I have no postal address as yet... What can I file on my dd_mandate annual subscription form? Can I leave it filled blank?
If you did it via 100% self-study, that is really good. Actually that is the way to do ACCA.
please why study test did you use ?
Thank u for the motivation ...I have a fear that some employers may ask how long I took tho 😬 Took a very long, REGRETTABLE break.

Hey Damali, don’t worry. When it comes to qualifications employers are less bothered about how long it took you and more about you actually obtaining it
Wanna do self study too... How long did u take to be done??

Good news from you indeed. How long did it take you to finish the 13 papers? Also, are you able to suggest the best calculator for ACCA exams for me?

Hi Grace, it took me about 5 years. A normal calculator will suffice as ACCA as most you will use the calculator for is normal math (addition, subtraction, multiplication etc)
Wooow❤

Hi Okeh, unfortunately this is dependent on country. You'll have to find out the local distributors for Kaplan/BPP books. Or get their online subscriptions. Requirement is as long as the tuition vendors are ACCA approved
Just registered exempted 4 subjects. 9 subjects to go. Applied stage 5 subjects including tax

Hi Andrea, thanks for watching. Well done on starting your ACCA journey. Now you can take tuition if you have it available. Just ensure the provider is ACCA approved or the material you’re using is. Self study can be an option if funding is an issue or after you’ve done a few papers and you feel you can give it a go yourself. It’s down to your preference. Point is to get your qualification 😉
Writing my first exam next week 🥺🥺
