me...!!!

how was it?
my Section A is quite shaky. sigh!~~~

I'm not too sure but I heard from many sources that ACCA is much tougher than CPA..Better research more on this before changing course..

sama sama here, the cash distribution RPGT group relief, i simply wrote
Q3 Q4 Q5 which one u did?

so is the p6 doable? I heard that since this new examiner took over

the difficulty level has dropped and pass rates improved

doable, ms yong's questions are quite practical
unlike old examiner, asking Mining expediture which is a bit obsolete

i choose Q4 n 5...what about u? i didnt even read Q3

Q1 cash distribution and the Q2 alternatives to consider to acquire new company....a bit shaky. not sure if it is right or not. i just know i have to write and write...dun care much

Q2 group relief part is still ok...as long as u remember the condition. it is still doable.

sigh!~~ i dunno...i just want 50.0000000

same! i did Q4 and Q5 also, Q3 too long to read

I realised Ive chosen q4 n q5 for optional questions in P level everytime

except P2 last sitting...i choose q3 and q5 instead

Erm, i dunno but CPA most marks are allocated at MCQ which I don't really like it at all since i prefer on writing.

the marks always like 60 MCQ, 20 Writing. I only scored on writing part and MCQ always failed

So if i wanna join ACCA and the test on June 2012, i can register at anytime? But the paper only can register next year February ?
Thanks.

now u can register anytime

but u have to pay all exemptions fee which should be very huge for ur 1st payment to acca

acca exam althou is ur favorite writing method..but the time pressure is huge

i can always see ppl complain every where

so u better buckle up and dun regret after u joined ACCA

btw..may I ask how many papers left for ur CPA?

if u're granted full exemptions...u will need to take 5 ACCA papers

any advice for my p2 paper next tues?
quite worry for this paper!

study more on standards..familiarise urself with the case study style standards with multiple IAS

pls read the examiner's article on how to tackle section B's question if u haven't

it's very useful

ntg much can be done on conso part ....

as u can memorise how to perform the calculations

Lol .. i had no passed any paper of CPA yet

So I can just register through Accaglobal.com or better find some place like Sunway for help?

And you mentioned exemptions fee? May I know how that work?

u can self register thru the website

and send the document needed to them

or register with a tuition provider and let them handle everything for u

or register urself then go to tuition provider that u intend to study with

ask them send the documents for u



as for exemptions fee right

it's basically is the exam fee (if not mistaken) for every paper that u're exempted

so lets say u got full exemption

then u will have to pay around GBP80 x 9 x 5 with the registration fee to ACCA

My friend said that after passing the degree level, i can go for level 3.

So currently I'm Bachelor Degree of Accounting and Finance.

So the exempt would be ?

joe fang's method ok?
haha..i'm studying all 3 papers in KSA..lol..
p1 p3 parmindar and p2 joe fang

9 papers full

but i think for F level papers..the exam fee is lower...u go calculate urself n c
im not from KL

Hi - i presume your are an Australian degree holder - that is why you are doing CPA. From my experience, Aussie degree holders can get complete exemption and just attempt the professional level, P1 to P7 (5 papers, 3 core and 2 optionals). This may be ACCA's marketing gimmick to pull business from CPA...since CPA has the largest student body in Malaysia now.....hehehe....

However, just to caution you, there is a big, big gap (emphasis added) between an Australian degree versus ACCA. A lot of your time will be spend to fill the knowledge gap rather than to study the paper itself.....it is really frustrating.....

ACCA is set at UK Masters level...and can be hard to pass especially if you are working full time and without proper tutor support...you can opt to do email correspondence course with FTC Kaplan .....

Unlike CPA, ACCA is definitely NOT open book and NOT MCQ...the only thing to bring in to the exam hall is a calculator and black ink pen and obviously..... lady LUCK herself.....

I got friends who in their whole life never go to temple to pray before... but end up very religious the day before P2 and P4....go to temple to pray and eat vegetable whole day.... some look at 4-ekor number in newspaper to spot topics.....some go to fortune teller to predict what topics are coming up in the exam... what to do??? fail too many times liaw.... need some divine help.....

If i am in your shoes, i will stick around with CPA.... MCQ... if dunno answer, at least can tembak....who knows, can tembak the right answer.....since multiple choice.....

ACCA,,,,,if dunno answer.....NOTHING to tembak.... just blank paper submission liaw..... but can try to write on the answer script ........a love letter to the examiner to minta markah kesian....hehehe

btw...ACCA is moving to MCQ in not so distant future ^

Complete exemption means still need pay the fee right?

Total: RM2,895 using RM5/pound...
