    Depends which subjects you have chosen to sit in September.
    I am assuming these are CT subjects in which case you need to have a minimum of 300 hours of study time. Remember this is the minimum and key to CT subjects is practising past exam questions etc!
    If I was you I would go for just one subject and then may be try three next April
    Good Luck

    The exam dates are 4th -15th September, so you have less time than you think.

    Having your assignments marked is quite expensive. You can mark them yourself just as easily. CT3&7 are not that difficult, so if you study hard, you can pass.

    Good luck!

    You don't have to submit the assignments if you do not want to.

    If you do you will recieve useful feedback on your exam technique and identify area where you need to work harder.
    However, this is not a prequisite to passing the exam which is entirely separate from the study course. So do what you like.

    Good luck.

    hi alankrita,

    I am also a newcomer but as far as I have read in students handbook, you need on an average 150 hours for one subject. So calulating 7 hours a day 8inlcuding weekends) would make you finish this study material in say 20 days so your done by 20th September. I am not sure how much time does it take to finish the assignments. Personally I would send it but at the same time I will give myself atleast 10 days to revise the study material or relevant portion of the exam.

    Hope the information above helps you.

    cheers
