I m TARC student & also sitting ACCA!!

If u are taking TARC diploma course, u don't need to take CAT. We can obtain exemption on all ACCA Part 1 papers using diploma qualification. Therefore, after diploma, u just need to sit ACCA 2.1 to 2.6 & Part 3 optional & core papers. (There will a change in 2007 )


haha.....my senior!!!! i noe v r nt necessarily take CAT.....but 2 yrs of diploma v boring lo.......hehe......wana find sumtin interestin mah.......hence...i tot of taking CAT lo....muahahaha.......can gv me sum advice plz????thanx ya!!! rclxm9.gif

If I am u, I will try to get as high GPA as I can to entitle for scholarship for Advanced Diploma/ UTAR ( If don't opt for both of them, at least u graduate with distinction & prize winner to make urself & ur parents proud), instead of taking CAT which I think it is not necessary.

you are smart for spm doesn't mean you are smart in accounting.
your phase is increase by dozens.
higher level accounting isn't similar as spm...personally i got 11A1 for spm..
but i find out that acca is a tough course..
you are clever,but you didn't do the right choice..
diploma is a 2year course..for a degree will be approximately 4 - 5 years course..
if your course decision commence from cat, you wil get your degree and complete your entire course in 2.5 years time. later on,continue with CFA or ICEAW for another two years...
people get degree in 5 years.
but you get degree and acca in 2.5 years time, besides you earn either CFA or ICAEW in 2 years time..it come to a total of 4.5 years..which is earlier and faster than the degree student,beside your qualification is more recognise.
do more research b4 you enter into certain course...


U r definitely correct....i agree wf u totally....higher accounting is nt as easy as ABC in tertiary studies....actually i noe tat ther r many routes 2 study ACCA....
CAT( 1 yr )-->ACCA(part 2)--->ACCA(part 3)
TARC--diploma in business studies ( 2yrs )-->ACCA(part 2)-->ACCA(part 3)
LCCI //A levels // F6-->ACCA(part 1)-->2 & 3
As i dun1 2 step in2 d business world so fast.....i chus 2 stay 1 more year by studyin in KTAR....n it saves money 2.....

CFA n ICAEW yup....same wf me....i plan 2 take CFA soon i fnsh my ACCA...while 4 ICAEW ( The Institute of Chartered Accountants of England n Wales ) plz do corect me if im wrong....its a v hard degree i heard from others....n d oni place tat can studies tis degree locally is in Sunway.....
In a few yrs time...ACCA=F6??=Diploma??=SPM?? hahha....i agree totally....
i got a few ques here...
1. Wic coll offer d course CFA??
2. Do i get any exemtion papers???
3. CFA n MBA...wic 1 is beta??
4. How 2 enter in2 d big 4???

WOW, 12 As student!! Yes, I think u can called urself smart thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Such excellent students (I consider 10 A1s above is exceptional) is very rare in TARC. A lot of 10 As students here but not 10 A1s...

Frankly speaking, Diploma in accounting is quite easy. U can take CAT & diploma at the same time in your case !! I am 2nd year AFA


irresistible....im nt v clever la....virgin slayer is rite....gud in SPM doesnt mean tat im gud in tertiary accountin.....do u plan 2 tk CFA afta ur ACCA??? o MBA???

erhemm. actually kasturi website got loads of information already. btw i want u too to differentiate CFA n ACCA as CFA is sum what called "master degree of finance" whilst ACCA is a reputable profesional quatification for accounts.

comparison between CFA n MBA. MBA will give a better knowledge in business as u'll learn HR,acc, marketing,finance,taxation bla bla bla. CFA is intermediate level finance n its highly reputable also.

its not the matter of reputation. i think its what u want to do in ur future which matters more when choosing ur course.

mind telling whats in ur mind? as in what profession u plan to be.

good luck choosing icon_rolleyes.gif


thanx 4 d website....i hv seen it....bt still blur bout CFA....n now CFP....oh my God!!!! actually im interested in taxation n financial planning.....so CFA n ACCA is my top choice....btw i luv 2 read 2...so i dun mind getting another master(MBA) afta ACCA....

can u plz tell me d route 2 CFA.....i heard tat d minimum req 4 CFA is a Ba degree.....

hey....r u taking ACCA????wher r u studyin ????

thanx a lot ya!!! whistling.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif
