New ACCA F2 Management Accounting is a successor of both old ACCA F2 and CAT T7 (old CAT certification scheme) and now stands equal to ACCA F2 As ACCA F2 and FIA FMA shares the same syllabus. As this is new thus no past exam papers now and might never will be available. But we are not out of luck and past papers of old CAT T7 and ACCA F2 are still helpful and is one of the finest resource available for FREE on ACCA’s website. We are providing two different kinds of analysis to help you find the questions easily to prepare FIA FMA course at best!

  • In year-wise arrangement ACCA F2 and CAT T7 past exam questions are arranged in descending order of exam sitting i.e. latest exam sitting listed first and the questions analysis given under respective past exam paper.
  • In topic-wise arrangement ACCA F2 and CAT T7 past exam questions are arranged in the order topics are listed in New ACCA F2 study guide.
Old ACCA F2 and CAT T7 past exam questions are still helpful and usable to prepare ACCA F2/FIA FMA under new syllabus. Students must not worry about the old and new syllabus as the new FIA FMA has the topics which were of ACCA F2 and/or CAT T7 previously. However, in case if any area is not examinable any more we have omitted it from our topic-wise analysis.
As latest ACCA F2 past exam questions are not available anymore we recommend FIA FMA students to use our FREE FIA FMA Practice Kit to best prepare FIA FMA Management Accounting exams. This FREE practice kit is updated according to latest syllabus and questions format and serves as a large exam level question bank for preparation, practice and revision of each and every topic of the syllabus.
