    Hi Planetstud

    I'm doing three exams at this sitting and I was finding it slightly difficult to fit in all three subjects (PEV/PCR/BTC). I actually sat down yesterday, with my text books and planned out a very "achievable" and "reasonable" time table for my studying and feel quite confident now that I will cover everything and fit in a number of "exam style" sessions by doing past papers.

    You could dedicate all the time in the world if you wanted to, but you need to ensure you are using the time efficiently and ensure that you're taking in what you are learning.

    Give yourself a break as well! There's no point going for 10 hours straight without giving yourself a minimum of a half hour break every 2 to 3 hours. This gives your brain a chance to register everything you've learned. You may not know it at the time, but when you do have a break, your brain is still going (obviously - but in the sense that it's still thinking about what you've learned).

    I would say that if you are that dedicated and you use your time wisely, then there is absolutely no reason why you shouldn't be able to pass your tax exams!

    Good luck with it all!!!!

    Hi

    If you have put in the work then there is no reason why you should not pass. As has been said you do need to make sure you are studying effectively and make sure you have covered the syllabus so you are prepared for any questions that may come up. I sat 4 exams last year as well as completing the project at the same time. I passed all but one, which I subsequently passed in Feb this year. However a few people did pass all of their exams(many taking 3 - 5 exams). So it is possible :D

    Good luck
