Hi shevon, good luck with your FLR(M). It should be OK with no major issues.

Concerning your Bachelor of Science Accountancy, to be completely sure of the official stance the link from joebloggs is the only accepted source. You may find you need to pay an admin fee. Probably worth it in you case.

In practice you may well find a number of job positions are available to you in Bookkeeping or as an accounting junior.
Others may well offer employment on condition of continuing examinations.
In UK there is really no hard-and-fast rules or definitions these days.
It's better to apply the jobs you really want and will excite you and let the employer tell you if your already adequately qualified or if further education is needed. Very often the employer will offer to support any further studies needed. (with time-off and financial support)
No harm in trying. All great experience for you.
