Hi there

Well, after my abysmal performance in last week's PTC exam, I think I will be faced with relearning this subject but updated to FA 2007 ready for June's exam. Does anyone have any idea what the differences are between FA 2006 and 2007? If they do, could they post them here so I can start trying to commit them to memory whilst I wait for my new text book to arrive. I don't think my college will be teaching this module now until 2009 when the 18% Capital Gains is supposed to start.

TIA

    PriceWaterhouseCoopers' Pocket Tax Book is very useful, but does go into more depth than you'll need
