I have just finished all certificate and e1 exams and will sit f1 soon. I want to know it is possible to sit all cima exams in one year? Has anyone done this?

Well there's no rule against it but it'd be really difficult, the case study exams are every 3 months so you'd have to do at least 2 levels in three months or less to finish all of them in a year. See how quickly you can finish operations and then decide based on that maybe?

I will finish f2 this month then p2 in janaury then ocs. but then will have march and april to sit e2 p2 f2, do you think this is possible or it is too fast? Thank you

My course provider recommends that it takes around 8-10 weeks of study to pass an OT exam, based on a minimum of 10 hours of study per week. So if you were able to commit to 40 hours per week you could theoretically complete all of the material for an exam in around 2.5 weeks, which would give you enough time to sit all of your OT exams between case study sittings.
However if you are currently working you would struggle to find enough time to study at this pace. I would recommend studying over a much longer period, or aiming for no more than one exam per month and then sitting the following case study sitting.

If you try and do it that quickly you're just going to fail all your exams, so you'll end up wasting money and won't even save time. Fastest I know someone has done it is a year and a half. She had to make a lot of sacrifices to do it that quickly and ended up having to wait another year and a half to meet the PER anyway.

Based on personal experience, I'd say it's possible but not likely. You might be able to do a whole ot per month but then you'd still need to wait three months for the case study, so if you want to finish as fast as possible and can study full time aim to pass an ot every six weeks and a case study every six, you'll finish in 18 months. Very difficult but that's about as fast as is reasonably possible.
