Sunway is pushing CFAB strongly but it may not be the right choice. Do you know after studying for one year +, you have to begin working already? ACCA is already tough, and ICAEW is much tougher, are you ready to be bond to your training contract for FIVE years? If you fail midway you end up with NO qualification!
Working and studying is not easy, you have deadlines on both side, deadline to study for your exam as well as deadline for your job.
I would suggest to do CAT, then ACCA, and then continue with ICAEW (You get alot of exemptions with ACCA qualifications).
I had this dilemma earlier last year when I was split whether to take up ICAEW after CAT (could apply to certain firms), but eventually I decided against it.

Even doing CAT and then move on to ACCA, that would make you just 20 years old in your final year. Many students do not have the maturity to answers most of the question and when you are in the final stage, you can really abandon your textbook, it's all very practical, and ICAEW is much more practical in terms of the questions asked. Do you have the maturity?
So do you think the ACCA candidates have time to go work part time or in another word internship when sem break? or during free days? Because this might help them answering the last few papers which require practical experience.Working and studying is not easy, you have deadlines on both side, deadline to study for your exam as well as deadline for your job.
