Is anyone sitting the above exam next week? Spent the last couple of weeks analysing the case study!
Has anyone been able to highlight any potential questions/ problem areas?
Thanks,
Joe

Just wondered how you got on with AF5? Planning on sitting it in April. Also, assuming you passed, would it be possible to lend/buy the book off you?
Many thanks,
Laura
Hi Laura,
I did pass AF5 back in October. It was quite a difficult exam but managed to get through!
I didn't buy the book as I got the impression it was a bit of a waste of time and money. I spent a long time analysing the case study and cross referenced past papers and past exams solutions to try and work out what questions were going to come up! It's certainly worth spending your time trying to familiarise yourself with the 'standard' questions that seem to come up every year.
I can send through all the documents that I've got on AF5 if you want? Hopefully a few of them will come in handy at some point.
Thanks,
Joe
Thanks Joe. Yes that's what I thought, hence why I didn't want to buy the book! If you could that would be great, but don't go out your way. My email address is laura@ayceplanning.com.
Thank you very much!

Hi Both,
I'm also sitting the AF5 exam in April, would you mind also sending me any documents you have Joe? My email address is claire@pdbwealthmanagement.co.uk
I looked on the CII site and there isn't a book for AF5, so i'm just concentrating on past papers until we get the case study.
Thanks Claire
I used Expert Pensions and they were very good. Also had colleagues using Brand FT and I've used other stuff of theirs in the past and present and found it very good.
If you log in to the PFS and search AF5 in the search box, you can filter by exam paper and it will give you loads of past papers.
I think i have some saved still so will send you what I have
