Hi, can anyone offer any help or advice. I am trying to study for DFS, PEV & PCR and finding DFS quite difficult. I am not in employment and am trying to study at home around 3 small children. I finished college last year so am on my own.

I live in Cornwall and could travel to near by seminars if there are any on offer.

Perhaps I am not cut out for it??:confused1:

    Steve is running seminars on DFS - it might be worth dropping him a line to see if he's doing one in the area http://forums.aat.org.uk/showthread.php?t=21372

    Hi Flipflop,

    I'm doing the same units as you through home study. With kids and full time work so i know how difficult it is - don't give up!

    I'm doing the diploma route but the coursework i get is the same as nvq.
    If you want to chat about DFS or get stuck feel free to ask or pm me. I can't guarantee i'll have the answers but two heads are better than one!

    When are you taking exams? Are you doing all 3 in June?

    I know there is sooooo much to remember in 8, 9 and 11,. DFS does get a bit more interesting, I quite enjoyed the consolidated accounts bit, how sad, anyway getting the books out now, good luck.

    i am really enjoying units 8 & 9 am about halfway through the BPP book and so far all ok. remembering the formulas is difficult, but as one comes along i am writing it down with an explanation. i am holding off doing past papers until i have read the whole book.

    then i will see how much has gone in and then do some refresher learning
