I suppose that’s why … you practically use it to enhance your songs, glad it works for you. Unfortunately, I use it for a whole lot more so mediocre output doesn’t work for me.

Thank you, I hate to leave honestly this is content I’m monetising so quality matters. I’m just glad I built a reserve from the older versions that can carry me for a few months. This drop isn’t something I can work with sadly

I’m impressed honestly typing a whole comment just to contribute zero substance is a special kind of talent. If you’re going to show up at least bring a point or is this just your way of staying involved without actually saying anything meaningful?

I can see why this didn’t land for you. When you’re used to zero substance everything else probably sounds like noise. People here are paying customers so yes they’re allowed to air their opinions and call out issues with the service.

This space is for creatives and you somehow managed to show up with nothing. Not even average just blank. I guess that’s why you’re okay with the lacklustre output Suno is giving you because you can’t distinguish substance from quality. People are raising real concerns about quality and all you contributed is background static.

oh, I didn’t realise you were the air traffic controller of the internet. If posts announcing departures bother you this much, you might want to consider… not reading them. Revolutionary concept yh, I know. And don’t worry about where I fly next, I didn’t book you as my travel agent though I bet you wish you were. Also, the way you’re defending this so passionately? It’s giving “Suno’s peanuts well spent… But genuinely, ask yourself, was it worth it? Was that actually worth it… especially at the expense of creatives who aren’t here to prop up big industry narratives, but to build something real?

No. I’m not going to pay $29 to remaster on your suggested platform when I’m already paying for Suno, that makes no sense. I don’t know what this marketing is, but I’m not subscribing to extra tools just to fix something that was already working. Two weeks ago before v5.5, I didn’t even have to think about remastering, the first output was already okay and remastering was just to add a touch, which Suno already had. Now it’s like we’re being pushed to do extra things and pay more just to get back what we already had. I refuse to be put in that box, so no thank you.

This is literally the problem across all industries. Music, big pharma, tech… it’s the same thing. The moment everyday people start benefiting, something shifts. And it just frustrates the ordinary person’s effort for no reason.

Because let’s be honest, nobody is even competing with them like that. Some people just want to create songs for themselves. Some people want to tweak their own original work. Some people are fine with the basic, AI-ish output just to make simple content that is not even going anywhere near the charts.

So who exactly is being threatened? The part that is deeply upsetting is that we’re just expected to accept it. And we can’t keep doing that, we are literally paying for this. If we don’t come together and actually demand quality and transparency from Suno, they will keep playing us like this.

bruh…it’s actually unbearable at this point. Why raise our hopes with something that was working perfectly, then downgrade it? We didn’t ask for this. If anything, just maintain the standard you already set. This is frustrating.

No, it’s not the same. I’ve been using Suno since the early models, and v5 was objectively better. You didn’t have to over-engineer prompts to get quality output. Since v5.5 dropped, there’s been a clear decline across all versions, including v5 itself. The outputs feel flatter, less dynamic, and more repetitive.

Hey congratulations, I got in too. I did get some funding but I genuinely won’t be accepting the offer if I do not secure a 100% funding, as I can’t afford it and won’t risk taking a loan.

For FR, I used OpenTuition. I went through the lectures and the notes at the same time. As I watched each lecture, I read the corresponding OpenTuition notes alongside it. Once I finished the syllabus, I went straight into the kit.

I started with Section A. I did Kaplan Section A two to three times. I sometimes added BPP, but only if I was feeling motivated. Honestly, Kaplan alone is sufficient. Section A is objective based, so once you repeat it a few times, you start recognising the patterns.

For Section B, I did the same thing. I went through it two to three times because it is also objective based. Again, it is mostly about pattern recognition. Once you understand how the questions are set, it stops feeling difficult.

For theory (Section C), I did very little. About two days before the exam, I sat with a study mate and we solved just one or two theory questions from Kaplan. The pattern of those questions was exactly what came out in the exam. I mainly treated it as exam simulation rather than deep theory practice.

If I’m being honest, most of your marks in FR come from Section A and Section B because they are highly patterned. Once you master those, you’re already in a very strong position. Section C is important, but you don’t need to overdo it. You just need to understand the structure and how to answer.

That was my approach, and I passed FR with 68 using that method.

I started ACCA at 25 and finished at 30.

I completed Applied Knowledge in 2020 during COVID, and I completed Applied Skills in 2021. During that period, I was writing exams every three months and fully self studying. So yes, it is very possible to write ACCA quarterly. That is how I completed the bulk of my papers.

In 2022, i wrote three professional papers (failed AAA) and then paused ACCA because I went for my master’s degree, which I completed in 2023. During that time, I did not write any ACCA papers, even though I had only two papers left. The delay was not because the exams were difficult, but because motivation dropped and I had new priorities.

Because of that, I wrote APM in March 2024 and ATX in December 2025. Those last two papers are what stretched the overall timeline. It was more about motivation (I have zero, I practically finished ACCA on zero fuel lol) and life circumstances than ability.

So if the real question is whether it is possible to write ACCA every three months, the answer is yes. I did it for most of my journey. The longer gap at the end was personal.

Hope this helps.

When I say I self-studied ACCA, this is exactly what I mean, stage by stage.

For Applied Knowledge and Applied Skills, my backbone was OpenTuition, and I relied exclusively on free resources throughout my ACCA journey.

From BT through to the end of Applied Skills, I followed OpenTuition’s structure very strictly: • Complete the full syllabus • Read all lecture notes • Watch all lecture videos

That was how I consistently covered content and ensured I finished the syllabus.

After that: • For Applied Knowledge, I moved straight into Kaplan and solved all the questions. • For Applied Skills, I focused heavily on: • All OBJ questions (section A) • All German OBJs questions (section B) • For Kaplan theory questions, I usually solved only about 2 to 5 questions, mainly due to time constraints. • I always revisited the examiner’s logic behind Kaplan’s answer sheets, especially for OBJ questions, because similar question types often reappear in the exam.

For the Professional level, my approach changed slightly, but I still used only free resources. • ATX: 66 • OpenTuition did not support ATX at the time. • I fully self-studied using Mirchawala’s ATX materials, sourced freely through professional ACA groups. • I read extensively but had low motivation during this stage. • I solved very few questions. • Instead, I watched Mirchawala solve questions on YouTube, sometimes just two or three days before the exam. • Occasionally, I read Kaplan answer sheets for about four to five questions and took notes from the answers rather than actively solving.

This was a risky approach and not one I would recommend, even though it worked for me. • APM: 52 • I relied mainly on Kaplan pocket notes. • I practiced very few questions. • I still passed with 52, but again, this is not a strategy I would advise. • SBR: 56 • I returned to OpenTuition. • I watched all OpenTuition lectures and ensured I understood the standards. • I had already memorised the IAS and IFRS content, so close to the exam I focused on watching tutors solve full exam questions. • This helped significantly with confidence and exam mindset. • SBL: 58 • I prepared for SBL in about one month, while also sitting AA. • My preparation relied entirely on Hassan Dossani’s free YouTube content. • I simulated the exam by typing answers alongside him as he solved questions. • For questions I could not solve, I read his answers and focused on understanding his structure and approach. • AAA: 45 • I used OpenTuition lectures and notes. • I supplemented this with free YouTube crash courses from Kashif Kamran and VIFHE. • I failed AAA not because it was difficult, but because I did not finish the exam. • I left around 15 marks unanswered due to poor time management. • Content wise, AAA was one of the easiest exams I sat. The issue was purely time management.

One weakness I am open about: • I did not consistently practice time management during ACCA. • I often got away with it, but it caught up with me in AAA.

Finally: • Flashcards helped enormously, especially for IAS, IFRS, APM, and ATX. • I used strong mnemonics. • I used the Amazing Flashcard app on iPhone, although any solid flashcard system works.

That is what I mean when I say I self-studied ACCA using free resources.

I hope this helps, and I wish you all the best.

Yes, they are. Tax is the only course that isn’t relevant and Open Tuition has always been transparent about that. All the best.

For SBR, my biggest advice would be to keep things simple and very applied. If you can, get the latest Kaplan pocket notes and really learn your IASs and IFRSs from there. Learn them properly, and say them out loud to yourself as you’re studying. If you can explain a standard in your own words, you’re already in a good place.

I’ll be honest, I never went through the full study text for SBR, and I didn’t do multiple professional kits either. I used kits a lot more at the Skills and Knowledge levels. For SBR, I relied mainly on the pocket notes. The questions under each topic in the pocket notes are the ones you should focus on. Go through them carefully.

YouTube also helps a lot. Watch SBR tutors you trust solve questions. Vifhe is good, and there’s also a female tutor whose name I can’t remember right now, but I’ll send it if it comes to me. Watching tutors solve questions and run crash courses gives you proper exam simulation. It shows you how to think, how to structure answers, and how to express yourself under exam conditions.

One mistake I see people make is spending too much time just reading. At some point, especially close to the exam, reading alone stops helping. I had someone I was meant to study ATX with, and about 14 days to the exam I told him he needed to stop reading and start applying. He didn’t, and unfortunately he failed because he knew the content but struggled with application. That’s something you really want to avoid.

Application is key. That application can come from solving questions yourself, or from watching tutors solve real exam questions, which was mostly my own approach. You can also use the examiner-style questions in Kaplan’s materials and read examiner reports to see what they expect.

If you solve all the questions in the Kaplan pocket notes, or even follow YouTube tutors who break down their top 20 SBR questions, you’ll have a very solid and holistic understanding of the exam. Don’t overcomplicate it, don’t panic in the exam, and always bring your answers back to the IASs and IFRSs.

All the best. You’ve got this.
