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

I'll surely fail f9.
FM again next sem!

yeah, I agree with you. TongCN should take up CPA if he finds that ACCA is too hot to handle. A high scorer master degree holder also finds that ACCA is hard to crack.

CPA is very easy & nobody fails. It doesn't require any accounting knowledge to pass.

CPA is not that easy and nobody fails. the percentage of failure and the toughness might be a little bit lower than ACCA.

Hmm, TongCN...better think twice before changing   I was like you last time, choosing between CPA and ACCA. I choose ACCA cuz I'm able to write during degree times. However, I realise that my writing is NOT good enough. Although you may cover all the syllabus, you may not be able to pass as well, might fail marginally. Given the tonnes of notes/preparation, stress and the time constraint, ACCA is not really as easy as you may think.

hmph, we are chasing away ACCA potential client

Hi there, i wanna ask if anyone here took cbe for papers f1 to f3?

I had such a horrible day today, i sat for my f2 paper and it was like a nightmare. Half of it was mcq questions and the other half was fill in the blank questions, no tembak. I don't know why but majority of the questions were extremely tough and me and my classmates agree that we've never even seen some of the questions in the exam before.

I usually pass in my mock exams and do the questions in my bpp exercise book. But when i get to the exam, its like the questions are 3 times harder! I was almost in tears as i couldn't do most of the questions and panicked when i saw most of it were number entry types.

So the conclusion is i failed with a mark of 42%. Just wondering has anyone experienced this, where the exams turn out to be much more difficult than mock exams/textbook questions ?
