    Hi all,

    I would appreciate if someone could help me in relation to the ACCA application.

    Firstly, I have started filling the application form have got to the stage where I have applied for exemptions.

    Do ACCA let me know if I can use these exemptions or not?

    Secondly, I am planning to do 2 exams at a time, what are the best combinatons to do?

    Thanks in advance. :)

    Once you send off the form applying for the exemptions, along with your results from college, they will let you know what exemptions you get.

    In terms of pairing of courses it's really down to what you like and don't like or what you feel most comfortable with. Often people like to do one general theory based exam with a general numerical one, some will like to top load on the numerical and others on the theory. Personnally I preferred to take one of each such as F8 and F9 together, I didn't want to take F7 with another number based one as it took a lot of work for me.

    Thanks Ardeehey,

    The application is also asking me to choose what exams I want to do next June. I m not sure what exemptions I get so I m really sure what to choose.

    Do you know if I am able to change mind on what exam to do or the number of exams I can take on?

    Not sure about that but the guys on the ACCA query line are very good and will help you no problem. I remember doing mine that I chosse 2 exams which I knew I definitely wasn't entitled exemptions for.

    Check out the ACCA exemption generator. Use Google to find it. It is very comprehensive and will let you know what exams you are exempt from.
