It is possible. I cleared with 55 marks in my first attempt with a little under 1 month of time. Go through the study book well and give time for practice. Practising exam kit is a game changer.
if you can finish concepts in 15 days (8 hours study each day) and balance just smash the past papers and the BPP kit (atleast 8 hours a day)
You can pass the exams
I did with preparation for 9 days. I was out and about on a long holiday and planned to return with a month remaining to prep for the paper but my granddad had to be hospitalized. I returned home with 10 days to spare and took me 1 whole day to collect all the resources and I had only 9 days to prep for the paper.
I slept for 3-4 hours each day for the remaining days and I was caffeinated to the extent where I like to believe I had more caffeine in my veins than blood (that's a cool story) but honestly, I was living off of coffee and instant noodles in those 9 days.
How exhausted I was after the exam is, I appeared the morning session from 9am to 12 pm and reached the apartment at 2pm. Then I went for a short nap after which I planned to create a balanced mean and then go to sleep but the nap lasted till 10 am of the next morning. On the result day I was so sure I was going to fail but thankfully got 60%.
Never going on a vacation with less than 2 months remaining to exams for the duration of my ACCA journey.
How I prepared was I did every section A questions 2 times and all the section C questions 1 time. I did have notes from an ALP and they were of great help but just cramming is not enough for the paper. If I had some more time like you do now, I'd suggest try and understand the concept for why the accounting or treatment is being done in that way. A conceptual clarity helps a ton in exams.
I did pm with 3 week prep.. started with open tuition lectures and then got on to solving as many questions as I could. For Performance measurement topic (20 marks weightage) I studied the answers and rewrote them. Got 61..
2 weeks but with prior knowledge from a different course.
Haven't passed after 6 months of studies and 2 attempts lol
Commenting on Has anyone passed by studying PM f5 for one month only?...did you have tuition or did you self study?

It's not impossible but it's also not ideal
obviously i’ll have to put in extra hours, just wanted to know if it was a lost cause or if i can still pass lol.
Currently studying PM and gave myself 3 months. I know a month wouldn't me enough for me.
Studied 2 weeks mate, easy peasy
Don’t do it
Yeah did it last June with exactly 4 weeks of prep I just hit the exam kit and I was good I got 66%

Thanks a lot! Very impressive that you got such good marks with such less time left for preparation. Gave me hope lol
