hmm.. okae.. think i shall go through it and see how it is like.. anyway most probably will study for a term onll.. but so far.. i think their admin is quite bad.. was quite screwed up by them even before school starts.. (for months)

but how's the lecturers like?

full time class is definitely weekdays...but for same paper lik 2.5 oso got weekend oso..
part time class got weekdays one... juz da class is at evening.... and also at weekend as well..
i think most college is da same if im not wrong...

lecturers are? i dun really know.. the good lecturers left.. the only "good" lecturer left will be Keith Farmer.. but daniel ho is quite good also.. the rest i think are pretty useless LOL

hows u guys exam??


my 2.4,3.2,3.4 kinda sux..damn worry now

i've started my 2.5 class today at sunway..ms.menon kinda,a strict lecturer...
she set the bar high for the student to get 90% on that paper..minumun is 85%...
huhu...

Please stick to the topic, and personal conversations to the PMs only. Thank you.

who's taking CAT at sunway? jan intake?

what exactly am I supposed to write on the bankdraft to ACCA on the initial registration?

helo everybody, long time didn't post here... busy wif exam...
this sitting i've registered 2.4 & 2.5 with systematic kl, (morgan & haneef lo)... but still sweating on the result on my previous exam on 2.2 & 2.3... So anyone here knows when is the exam result coming out?? (sori if this Q hav been posted)..

December 2005 results will be posted on Monday 20 February 2006.


so freaking long this time.. bahzz

yeah, so freakin long... i'll mark that date on my calender...
So that also means the email result will be received on that date also rite??

Hi, I am quiet new to this forum, left ACCA exams almost 1 1/2 years ago, after unexpected results in 3.1 and 3.4.

I am trying to make a comeback, in 2006. Could anyone please advise me the reasonable easy subjects to clear between 3.1 to 3.4. Please do advise me for any good lectures for these subjects. Inrerested in partime classes any where in PJ & KL.

Looking forward for a smooth sailing year.

Regards
GSPS

yeah the email will be on that date.. snail mail will be received later.. depending on the posting service.. LOL.. u can check ur results online tru ur acca account.

hi, welcome here .. uhmm what kind of unexpected results?.. well actually,each subject has its pros n cons,depending on what type of questions u are comfortable with and ur interests.. if u prefer calculations 3.2 and 3.3 is going to be the one.. 3.1 n 3.4 is almost 100% theory.. from what i've heard from people, 3.4 is the easiest, followed by 3.3 then 3.2 then 3.1...

i,myself took 3.1 n 3.2 bcos it'll give me better chance to get a job in an audit firm... in my opinion, 3.1 is quite okay for me, 3.2 is tough.. i didnt take 3.3 n 3.4.. so i cant comment on that.. but although lots of people said how easy 3.4 is.. i've seen people who keep failing 3.4 after many many attempts..

are u sure u want to change? if i were u, i'll continue with 3.1 n 3.4.. at least i already know what's going on in the subject and it'll be easier for me to relearn and tackle in the exam.. good luck

guys i need ur help...

im currently holding a diploma in accounting from TARC n exempted for acca 1.1-2.2 (5 papers).i've been studying in TARC advance diploma for 2 sems but now i decided to quit coz it's kinda slow n not efficient.

im considering systematic,kasturi or other inst. sunway is out of my list coz too far n expensive.

plz guys...it's urgent here..thanx 1st

I m a Tarcian here, currently doing my ACCA last semester!!

Is TARC that bad?? Yes, it might be, but u can seek outside tuition.
Frankly speaking, are u a good student?? U want to take 3 papers in one sitting?? ACCA is not easy, u might fail. (Sorry if I underestimate ur ability)

For me, Being one of the top students during Diploma & SPM & a scholarship holder myself, I felt that ACCA is tough & might have good chances to fail in one of the paper. I even get "C " during my Advanced Diploma

If u want to take many subjects in differnt places, is it convenient to do so, will it waste ur time?? Anyway, Chong Kwai Fatt is not teaching tuition anymore, at least for this 2 years, no book published fr him also I heard fr my friends said he is really good !!

I see many top students fail in their Core Papers ACCA, drop an Adv Diploma Certificate which is not difficult to obtain is not a wise act.

I got a friend taking advance diploma in Tarc too this year.. According to her, if u passed adv dip, u can hav exemption up till 2.6 if u want to continue ACCA. Well, if u think that ACCA is hard, then to be on the safe side Advance diploma shud b helpful as u can get exempted for part 1 & 2...
But in another point of view, a lecturer for ACCA once said that many pple fail in part 3 of ACCA coz they did not go through part 2 at all or didn't build their knowledge on part two to enable them to hav a strong knowledge to tackle part 3 papers...
well, taking papers 1 here & there shud be ok as long as no clash in time table.. Taking papers amont systematic, kasturi & mcorange is ok coz their distance betwween each other is near. In fact, its normal to do so, everyone choose who they think is good lecturers...

im from TARC also..now we are final sem studying last 3 core papers..
btw..im still waiting results for 3.2,n3.4 n 2.4 also.. so worry

hey dude, sorry i'm a bit late.. u got my pm about it right? anyway, i was at PAAC and i've got to know quite a few of TARC ex student who didnt finish adv.dip there and came out to study ACCA.. they went in to study part 2.. according to them, TARC exams r internal and pretty easy maybe mainly bcos they r given tips?.. the only thing they have to worry is whether they can get distinction or not. passing is nothing to be worried about..

however, some of them failed ACCA part 2&3 papers couple of times.. and a new girl from TARC i recently knew just started ACCA part 2 last sitting.. she said it was tough.. n really worry whether she'll pass.. and mind u, i dun think she's stupid orsomething.. she's really hardworking n i can say that she's quite smart.. hearing that from her mouth confirmed that ACCA life is not easy as TARC life.. coming out to study is quite a challenge i suppose..

and the lecturer for my tax paper for the 1st half of the 2005, who was from ACCA long long time ago also mention what bravura said.. she said TARCians isnt ready for the sudden change in part 3 bcos they r so used to internal exams etc.. coming out to study part 3 ACCA is something like a culture shock.. it's hard to adapt.. that's y failing is quite common...

it's really ur choice whether to continue with adv.dip. or come out.. as to hopping between lecturers in different institutes.. it's very common in ACCA.. as for chong kwai fatt, i've heard about it too.. someone close to him(i think it's his mother, sorry if i'm wrong bout this) passed away.. he said he'll focus on consultancy n stopped lecturing and publishing books... a fren of mine who attended his IRC last sitting told me that..

actually sunway isnt really that expensive.. they give u more hours of classes..and u will really experience college life.. it's just whether u need it or not

2.4 maybe andrew pang in kasturi?, 2.5 u'll have quite a good range of choices.. haneff in systematic,keith farmer in ftms and also ms.kala in PAAC.. i was a former student of keith in 2.5, but attended kala's 3.6.. i think ms.kala is really helpful n nice.. furthermore,kala class is smaller.. thus, we are given more attention.. 2.3 i really dunno ler.. maybe ms.kok in PAAC?.. she taught me 3.2 and i thought she is pretty good.. i've never wander very far in search of lecturers.. environment is more important to me i guess... so i dunno bout other lecturers for 2.3,2.4,2.5

2.3 i was used to be taught by steve chia.. he was featured in ACCA Focus Newsletter.. he's now the youngest executive director in PwC.. too bad he isnt teaching anymore.. he's very very good.. very organised etc

2.4, chow kim tai didnt teach anymore.. so, hahaha i also dunno.. he taught me and i thought he's very good also.. unless u want to go to singapore to attend his class


phew.. long post.. anyway ,xcrue, no need wrry so much lar.. enjoy while u still can.. haha

Hi,Hikari !!
I m attempting my core papers, still pending result of 3.2 & 3.3.
Can u give me some idea which tuition (conduct by who) is the best for 3 core papers???

I need it bcause our lecturers r a total disaster!!
& I learn fr experience last time, our lecturer did not cover many major issues for tht particular subject (Taxation)!! I hate him!!!!!!!
I know I have to work very very hard if I have to take 4 papers.

3.5, ms.wong at bistarina.. then go to michael mainwaring IRC.. should be conducted by McOrange again..

3.6, either haneef,keith farmer or kala..keith farmer will tend to skip some standards.. he's quite lazy actually.. lol.. but he does focus on important part of the syllabus.. irc.. anywhere lor.. the one u usually study with will do...

3.7, andrew pang at kasturi.. i've heard that daniel ho at ftms is quite good also.. but if Steve Lumber is to come for IRC again, pls do attend his class.

good luck

thanx for d opinions guys

i've decided to leave tarc n study 2.3-2.6 outside despite i've gone through them in tarc. it's mainly bcoz my foundation for part 2 is very very weak n i don think i could adapt to part 3 wif such weak foundation.

not to say tarc lousy o wat....but there r pros n cons for internally assessed sys...i don wanna being pampered under internal exams n couldn't adapt to part 3 in d future.

well...im now taking 2.3-2.6 4 (4 PAPERS!!!) in june sitting. 2.3 Alan Yeo in Kasturi,2.4 Morgan+Yoong in SEGi (formerly systematic),2.5 Haneef in SEGi n 2.6 Magdalene Chia in SEGi.

wish me luck guys....im gonna study very very very X100 hard for d next 6 months....then clear 3.1 n 3.2 in dec 06 n finally 3.5-3.7 in june 06...so tat i can gao dim all b4 new syllabus in dec 07
