I think You should prepare for Accounts as it is easy to get exemption in Accounting than any other subject

I feel you need to have a re-think in your strategy for clearing the May 2013 Examination, by having a balanced approach in all four papers. It is easy to choose one or two subjects to aim for exemption, but the fundamental question on everyone’s mind would be to clear the group at one shot? Think conversely, suppose if the subjects you chose were to be toughest and the others happened to be the easiest, would you not be cursing your luck?

My personal suggestion to you is, focus on all 4 papers equally. In this four 1 of the subject might be easy (based on your postings above, it may be SFM) and choose another paper which you feel is tough. Just rewind to see the last attempt, the accounts paper was comparatively tough and SFM was highly scoring and suppose your decision backfired whom would you blame then.

Audit is a tricky paper, it is one paper in-group 1 where majority of students think, they know the subject pretty well and take it lightly. However, the fact of the matter is, it is an easy paper but tough to gain high marks. It may sometimes be the deciding factor to see whether you have garnered the aggregate to cross the fence or you fell short. Corporate law paper requires emphasis of qualitative answering with conceptual clarity.

Hence, it is better to think positive to clear your group by focusing on all four papers.

Best of luck
