Can we share some [B]STUDY TIPS here ??[/B] How do you study ??
We can also share some exam tips and exam anwering techniques.
We should study hard in a smart way in order to ensure success in our exam, isn't it ?
For instance, with the release of Budget 2006, the DEc ACCA Taxation paper, all the tax rate, personal relief etc, we should follow the latest budget or the old taxation system ??
Pls help, thanks

Internal fail, external pass, VERY UNLIKELY !!
Just like other Public U or colleges, for internal exam, there is always some guidelines from the lecturer!! Even if the lecturer did not give any tips, the question paper is not that tough like ACCA. Our lecturers tend to set short question considering our english standard. But, ACCA is toatally a different story !!

If that really happen, you can resit and if you pass all subjects, you get your Advanced diploma & ACCA certificate.
Or Another option : you don't resit, you don't get TARC Advance Diploma certificate, but you still get ACCA cert. *(Anyway, who wants a Advance diploma, if u already have ACCA )

budget 2006 will only be in effect in our exam on june 2006 sitting.. we have a 6 months rule.. new legislation will not be examinable until at least 6 calendar months after it become law

where can we get EXAm tips for ACCA?ahha

Actually, what I mean is Spotting questions, bottomline we still have to study all! But, which chapters to emphasis, bare in mind that only certain topics will be examinable. Only Genius can memorize the whole text book and reproduce it in exam !

Share some study tips!! Eg. Specialised industry : BISA !!
How to memorize Section effectively etc
Instead of using normal note taking, maybe we can use mind maps , speed reading etc. What I mean is study tecniques specifically for ACCA !!
We have to work smart or increase our learning ability since I saw so many bookworm or Tarc Scholar fail in the ACCA external papers!!

I don't want to fail, I can't tolerate failure. Xcrue, start study?? I m still in honeymood...

someone gave me this earlier.. useful for me last sitting

errmm.. this yr 3.2 is bout residence isnt it? lol since the article says so..

Irrestible,i din start studying yet..HAHa..when open the book,my heart think about DOtas..Tv..omg

3.2 residence article???normally i use mindmap 2 help memorise but cant really remember all,esp those theory papers.

u dun usually remember, u need to understand.. that's how u pass the papers.. vomitting all the facts out doesnt work in ACCA exam.. ACCA exam is about application.. understanding is needed

I agree ACCA exam all is about application. However, what we study have to commit into our memory in order to apply it in the exam! Higher level of learning like Degree or ACCA always require understanding. Understand also enforce our memory.
Mind map is one of the tools that help linking various info into a big picture for understanding and enforce memory. But, I find hard to use mind map for ACCA.
MInd map is very useful for Moral, Sejarah, Fizik (SPM), thats what I think!!

yea...so worry about paper BIM 3.4 now..omg

Most ppeople commented BIM is the most easy Part 3 paper!!
To further prove that, my friend that study ACCA in one of the Penang College pass this paper, but fail Adv Tax & Audit (2.6)!!

Worry is a good thing, that means u are concern about it and hopefully u will take action about it.
Taxation is very tough, thats the paper I worry. But, i STILL didn't study!!
What I said is based on statistic, from world wide passing rate to our seniors advice.

i scare 3.4 thn 3.2 bcoz there's too many theories for BIM,but 3.2 quite difficult to pass as well,exp if we did any mistakes in calculations

so,when u plan2 start studying?ehe..

3.4 is easier than 3.2 in a sense, bcos u can tembak answers and answer with logic in 3.4, while 3.2 is either u know or u dunno.. it's very hard to answer 3.2 if u dont know the act/rule etc

i would say 3.2 is the hardest paper among all optional papers... 3.1 is easier XD
