Open Tuition Tax-UK
Is it advisable to review the Open Tuition lectures for the June 2025 exam sitting? I noticed that their website isn’t offering any free lectures for the June 2025 to March 2026 period. However, they do have lecture videos available that cover the syllabus for June 2024 to March 2025. Would it be acceptable to use these lectures for preparation? I realize that the tax syllabus can change each year, but how significant are those changes, really?

It’s great that you’re thinking ahead about your preparation! Generally, Open Tuition’s lectures can provide a solid foundation, even if they are aimed at an earlier syllabus. While the core principles of tax may remain consistent, be aware that the specific regulations, rates, and allowances can change significantly from year to year.
Here are a couple of points to consider:
Content Relevance: Review the syllabus for June 2025 when it’s released and compare it with the 2024-2025 syllabus. Look for any major changes in legislation or updates in tax laws that could impact your studies.
Supplementary Materials: If you do choose to use the older lectures, make sure to supplement them with any updated resources. Official texts, study guides, and recent past papers can help fill in the gaps.
Exam Practice: Practice questions from past papers for June 2025 soon after they are published to ensure you are prepared for the format and specific requirements of that exam.
In summary, while the Open Tuition lectures can be a helpful tool, be mindful to stay updated on any changes in the tax syllabus to ensure you’re fully prepared for your exam. Good luck with your studies!
