Anyone attended Navzar Tara class before? Been searching for the answer but can't find in forum

(Let's say I'm part-time ACCA student and working as a audit staff) May I know that working experiences before ACCA-graduated can be included as the 3 years working experiences which required by MIA? Or only post-graduated working experiences will be recognised?

can i use the diploma cert to enter other business course eg finance ?

anyone know the exam fees of FIA?
is that necessary to get tution from a college only can take the exam ?

please check out accaglobal you can look for detail. no, you can self study. with lecturer you can understand better .

can only take one paper p7 part time in Sunway college? how much it cost?

CAT is replaced by FIA.

If previously you could apply using CAT for a finance degree, rationally you should be able to do the same.

But FIA is so new and virtually unknown so i'm not too sure if the current education institutions would be so receptive.

Furthermore FIA is only 3 subjects as compared with a typical business foundation program which has twice or three times as much subjects.

The only certification to apply for a finance degree with an equivalent amount of subjects would be probably the A'levels certification atm.

Or even better go meet one of their student counselors or admin staff and let them explain to you.

They are more competent i suppose.

Added on June 26, 2011, 2:53 amWhen you are ACCA associate member automatically you will be member of MIA atm. Therefore the key thing atm would be to be an associate member of ACCA.

I guess that previous experience can be considered but you must start reporting it to them (i.e. ACCA) while studying otherwise it won't count.

do i need a basic in add maths to survive this course??(didnt take it back then spm)

I'm still undecided therefore not sure that we will be in same class.

Added on June 26, 2011, 3:03 amYou don't need add.maths at all because you only need to know the basic BDMAS (i.e. Bracket, Division, Multi, Addition, Subtract), basic algebra, basic simulataneous equations, basic graphs and basic straight line/curve equations.

It's accounting not engineering.

Basically if you are at least a B in SPM modern maths; you will do just fine.

but is it very hard to get graduated within the duration?

Yes its difficult to complete it within duration unless either you are very smart (i.e. straight A's implying good foundation) or you are very hardworking (i.e. good study habits).

Normally both of those two criterias are positively correlated.

If you are not smart but you are hardworking; its ok because its never too late.

If you are hardworking but still find trouble; just get the right help (i.e. good lecturer) and you will be fine.

how long would an average b student graduate then?i know it takes 2 1/2 years 2 complete the acca in disted.

The fastest possible time you could complete ACCA 14 papers is 4+4+4+2 subjects without failing would be 2 years (ie. 4 sittings).

Max 4 papers per sitting.

The average time would be 3+3+3+3+2 subjects which would take 2.5 years (i.e. 5 sittings). This option has leverage for failing.

More failings which is a norm in ACCA would evidently delay graduation.

B student or not is just one constraint; they are other factors for consideration (i.e. single working mum).

More constraints would also delay graduation.

Goal is to minimize constraints and failings.

so do u think its encouraglable 4 me 2 take up acca?or bachelor degree in account?

The generic answer would be to take up the bachelor's first and take ACCA later as you will get full exemptions anyways.

Bachelor Acc & Fin then ACCA

Pro's
Build up your maturity, study habits and foundation
Better insurance policy as degrees are relatively easier
Full exemptions

Cons
Longer duration (but usually a myth as ACCA would take you as long in average; no hard facts to support this claim)
More expensive (depending on your degree tuition; ie overseas)

This would be a generic pro and con schedule in support of that position. Likewise you can build up your own schedule and decide what factors are pertinent to your situation and then decide what is best for you in your current circumstance.

Each individual has a unique set of circumstances therefore you are your best judge in deciding what is best for you.

Its your future not mine; you should decide what is best for you and not anyone else because in the end you live your own life.

just looking for opinion,but is there a high chance to fail in bachelor degree?

no way...
