QUOTE(mivec3gs @ Jan 17 2010, 02:18 AM) to me this is what i think: taking cat and start acca is da fastest route to get ya professional accounting in commerce.. however this route is super tough... depends how u cope with it... to take much easier route, uk degree in commerce will lead u most of the exemptions in acca papers... to take degree, just go through foundation/matriculation/diploma/alvl or even stpm.... but if money is a concern, i can recommend u goin tarc, their diploma n advance in acc 2yrs each comepare to most col 2.5yrs in diploma in commerce... tarc's advance in acc will get u lots of exemptions in acca papers, all u nid is to get a degree or straight to acca after the advance... from advance to degree u most probably get exempted from year1 n 2, so u nid to complete yr3 degree... but this exemption depends on subs n uni. i'm not advertising for tarc, but is the same paper u get exemptions from acca papers instead of entering private colleges with quite some high expenses in tuition fees especially in degree. let see here: diploma + advance =4yrs... foundation/matriculation + degree = 4yrs if money is not the issue, i suggest u go for aus degree in commerce which link u to CPA after u graduate uni. getting cpa is much easier than acca... thats my perception though... anyway, all the best to ya career~ diploma+advance 4 years havent include acca right? thanks for the comment |

QUOTE(pcm123 @ Jan 17 2010, 09:33 PM) oh this is sooooooo subjective . haha thanks.what is the average time normally people need to complete ACCA? (CAT route)Do you think you are good in studies? If you think you are ,then high chance lo , since you are confident haha. But if average ppl , lecturers always say that hardwork can bring you through , but maybe there a few bumps. |

QUOTE(pcm123 @ Jan 17 2010, 11:23 PM) according to " plan " or u call " average time " - 3 yrs ( which i dun think many can achieve , since pass rates normally are below 50% ,u can check acca website) thanks alotlet me explain . 1 sem = 6 months I hope I m not outdated .. CAT - 1 sem 5 papers (t1-t5) , 1 sem 4 papers(t6,t7,t8,t9/t10) = 1 year CAT DONE , if u pass all . ACCA - 1 sem 3 papers (F4 F5 F6) , then F7 F8 F9 , then P1 P2 P3 , then 2 papers out of 4 papers (P4 P5 P6 P7). so = 4 sems = 2 yrs. hence u get CAT ( 1 year ) + ACCA ( 2 years ) = 3 years as PLANNED , yes if u pass all. get ? |
