How will the AF5 PDF fact-find analysis with email support help me to pass?
Passing AF5 isn’t only about having the necessary knowledge and understanding, it’s about being able to apply that knowledge exactly as needed and in a timely manner.
It is essential that you have fully prepared for the AF5 exam and are ready to answer questions relating to the fact-find. If you go into the exam unprepared, you will lose vital time and marks. Our AF5 PDF fact-find analysis comes with an email support day in the lead-up to the exam and includes a Q&A document with the questions asked on the day, giving you even more ways to prepare as much as possible. The analysis covers the areas that you are likely to see in the exam; however, other questions may be asked, and we strongly advise you to think around other potential areas of questioning.
Why an ‘Analysis’ and not a ‘Solution’?
Some providers refer to their analysis of the AF5 fact-find as a ‘solution’. We decided not to call our analysis a ‘solution’ simply because it’s impossible to provide a solution when you don’t know what the exam questions are going to be – and no-one knows that until exam day!
We didn’t want to mislead and therefore we decided to call this resource an analysis – our experts tell you what they expect to come up in the exam based on their expert analysis of the fact-find. This analysis provides the likely questions and answers required based on the fact-find.
- "I am pleased to say I passed AF5 using Brand's AF5 Fact-Find Analysis. I am now preparing my application for Chartered Status! I have used the Brand materials for a number of the exams along the way and have found them to be most useful and very reasonably priced and always recommend them to colleagues."
Tammie SteadmanChartered Financial Planner, Footes Financial Planning UK, Birmingham - “Your R06 case study analysis was great & definitely helped significantly – it was good to know that you are revising the right areas & hi-lighted some areas which I hadn’t anticipated - it covered the vast majority of the questions . Personally, I found the questions on the first case study more challenging than the second. Questions seemed more specific – needing deep knowledge of details rather than an overview, such as on pensions & divorce. I have used your resources on RO1, RO2,RO3, RO4,RO5 & RO6 & passed them all first time so would recommend them to anybody taking these exams.”Jonathan WoodmanBoroughbridge

- This was my 1st AF exam and thanks to your fantastic and spot on analysis I have passed it at first attempt! I have used your materials for all my ‘R0’ and couple of ‘J ‘ exams and I have to admit, that without it I would have not been able to achieve my diploma! Special mention to all the calculation workbooks and their perfect, easy to understand layout.AniaParaplanner, Manchester
- The analysis was pretty much spot on with regards to all of the topics – so thank you for the accuracy. Thank you for your help, I’ll definitely be using the resources for the advanced diploma.Sahiba KohliParaplanner
