Hi everyone
I'm trying to find weekend exam dates for my BTAX and PTAX exams. I was wondering how long it took other people to prepare for them and which one needs the longest time?
Thanks

I spent 5/6 weeks on each of these units.
PTAX I really enjoyed (plus I think most people in accounts know a little bit about personal tax), so was slightly cocky and probably didn't do as much revising as I should have. I passed, but I think it was probably close.
BTAX was completely new to me, so I have been spending more time on this unit and have my exam tomorrow.
It really depends on how many hours you can put in to your studies each week?
I would say I have probably studied around 15 hours a week for Business Tax.1 -
Thanks, Jade - that's really helpful.
I can get a 10 week gap between finishing budgeting and doing one of the tax exams, then another 7 weeks before the next one (though I will be fitting in holidays too + work).
BTAX looks the more substantial of the two so might do that first ...
Good luck with the exam tomorrow
