no big problem...
i already clarify with him..

in my opinion,if study ACCA just rely on past year and BPP textbook,i think the chances of failure at 1st attempt is high...no offend,just my personal comment..
maybe CAT　can use this way but i don think applicable to ACCA...

oic...

ok,i briefly told u about their approach in summary for all three lecturers..
you must first understand that not many lecturers can finish the syllabus and covers all the syllabus in just 4-5 months time,so what they can do is to try their very best to cover as much as they can and also covers at least the core areas..

they did not talk very fast,but you need to be aware that there are 2 mat salleh lecturers there,so you might have some slang that u might not biasa at 1st but sooner or later you would be fine...don't worry they are very experienced so they know what are the students concern and also problems in getting what the lecturers wish to deliver...

all the lecturers are using the Q and A approach as it is better for the students to learn and apply immediately what they had learnt...so the class will not be fully on talking about theory only..one thing u also need to take note that esp if you have a chinese lecturers,not much theory in talking will be delivered to students,at least not as much as a mat salleh lecturer,but he will give you the notes that u need to read on that...

all the lecturers have a well developed approach and way to conduct the class as this is not their 1st time giving lecture ..so don't worry about that...just try to suit yourself to their approach and change accordingly,sooner or later u will be fine...
some people might comment that keith might not able to finish the syllabus and also just teach on his spotted areas but sometime it is not really an easy thing to do lo,but i think he at least did his job and not lazy about that,he gave you the notes and i think for me,with his help,i can understand his approach amd lecture and also i can pass because of him..this is what i think...

one more thing i want to stress is that sometime passing exam is depend on yourself,i had met with lecturer which i think not really good but it is not an excuse of failure,i can pass also even though i might not have much guidance...
i guess you might know the fact but i just want to stress it here again...

all the best for your coming exam...

haha...ur friend really funny...for me if i heard this i just treat that as a joke..
you know what is sour grape,they may not able to do that and said it is not good..
i just wish that ur fren who study in Tarc won't take ACCA after her degree,coz some of the degree holders are required to take up a professional qualifiation when they work for those big accounting firm...

why her mum say no good?i am not sure coz i am not his mum...only his mum know why ACCA not good...

i personally think ACCA is a good qualification and i heard a lot positive feedback when ppl heard that i am an ACCA student last time and now as an affiliate..
it is no doubt maybe some people fail their exam...
but things are not simple right,u wan to pass easy and u get a prestigious qualification,if ppl can pass ACCA so easily,then ACCA also no quality is it...

personal opinion la...

reference for some candidate:

Concern over exam strategy
20th April 2006

Answering just three out of four questions will not prepare students for harder exams

There is growing concern among examiners that some ACCA students are entering the exam with a strategy to answer just three out of four questions.

Speaking at the recent lecturers' conference, paper 2.5 examiner Steve Scott stressed that he needed students to answer all four of his questions. He is worried that more and more students seem to be taking the high risk strategy of aiming to get 17 marks in three questions to amass 51 per cent - a pass.

But, this does not prepare them for the much harder 3.6 paper, he warned.

Scott promised that in future his questions would have much broader syllabus coverage to prevent students passing knowing only a few key topics.

seldom see smart ppl said himself i am smart ..haha
for the textbook u can get from the bookstore,they have it but just expensive...

for 2.3,practice lots of questions from past year and also at the same time familiar about the tax principles....

for 2.4,master all the core areas of the syllabus,maybe a good revision class will help to get a big picture and learn exam techinique...

you also funny la ..seems like ur diploma life will be very free like that..why not take other course like computer etc?

second hand books ah..maybe can find,but normally will obsolete der lo...so better can new one lo if u really think u need that...

haha,now say not smart a ..not i wan to tease you la and also not don't wan to help you,coz i am not studied CAT,so not much advice for u also ...

hello,
wau..din know u are studying acca also...
haha..like that i think i maybe able to help u a bit in acca and u can help me on my pc..
nice to c u here...

in my opinion,it is not good to stop at part 2 as OBU is really nothing..
as far as i know,now holders of ACCA is quite demanding in the market,CFA is a profeesional course on financial analyst,so if u not interested in that,i don c the point that u shd go for it instead of ACCA part 3 and get ur ACCA title..
for me ,the professional qualification is just like a passport to go into the area,what u can can achieve and how good u can be all depends on ur attitude and also experience along the working...
the 'u' not mean u virginslayer,just generally i mean and the above all my personal opinion...

+May 7 2006, 10:06 AM-->will that be?u know many study ACCA but many did give up half way and many also not graduate,i doubt that this day will come so early or not...

+May 7 2006, 11:58 AM-->yaya...nothing is impossible right,who knows one day that might happen,but if like that,i believe ACCA also realised this and i wish that they will take the initiative to make it not too worse,so many ppl are taking exams ever sitting but only certain numbers did pass,so i believe they will carry out some quality control also...

ya,that is the reason also i take my ICSA only after i finish my ACCA...

+May 7 2006, 12:40 PM-->hello,
thanks for ur suggestion...i already pass my icsa as i finish the final 4 papers in half month after i pass my ACCA..
however i din go to brickfield as they cannot meet my requirement..
so i take all in systematics...

+May 7 2006, 12:53 PM-->haha...thanks..
why not just go for ACCA straight away?

i think kasturi got CFA,as far as i know the minimum req for CFA is degree,so no exemptions available i guess..
CFA is professional qualification,MBA is postgraduate,just like ACCA and Degree...
how to enter into big 4,just send them ur resume lo....hehe
