Default Suitable 2 paper combo?

I have two Essential (P2 and P3) and two Option papers (P4 and P5) to go. I try to balance work and studies and since the June session is a slightly longer from a work perspective I was wondering what combo of 2 papers I should attempt in June 2009.

I would prefer to have one numerical and one theory based paper so I was wondering if somebody could based on their expereince with these papers suggest a suitable combo. Since I have to enrol for evening classes really,really soon I would appreciate a quick response.

First i would like to make it clear that even P2 and P4 are not totally numerical papers they can have around 35 -50 % theory

Here are a few suggestions


a)P2+P3 ( but they are on consecutive days )
b)P3+P4
c)P5+P2

Thanks for the suggested combos. I was wondering would P2 and P4 be manageable considering I plan on taking P2 classes and P4 on a go it alone basis.More imp can P4 be done on your own?

I got an exemption for the basic Perf Mgt paper at the Fundamentals level so if I did take P5 I''d prob require more time than some1 who had taken the basic paper so I think I could try that alongwith one of the P2/P4 papers.

I'd appreciate it if some1 could suggest which one of the two approved texts they have used in getting through P2 and P4.

In my opinion for P2 BPP is better.


P4 can be done on your own but would be much easier if you can find a good lecturer.( which is a tough job atleast in lahore(pakistan))

Before you make any decisions, can I please ask you to check with ACCA.

My college, has told me that you need to do the 'Essentials' P1-P3 before the 'Options' P4-P7.

The acca webpage says that the essentials must be done before the options papers - so I dont think you have any choice.
