who went to the p7 class this morning at elitejaya?

Hi,

I'm going to be taking the P1 and P2 papers this semester.. I've been following the ACCA lowyat thread and am interested in enrolling to Mr Phillip Woo's class in Taylors considering all the great comments on him..

However, I would like a reconfirmation that he is a great lecturer.. some commented he gives out scrappy notes.. and since I'm not even sure what is expected or needed in P1, I hope you would be able to advice me..

(Really need good advise since Taylor's fees is really high)..

Ps: I read about Sheila John's too.. Would anyone know if she teaches elsewhere other than Elitejaya?

Suggested lecturer's list for P1 (from a friend):

Philip Woo
Sheila John
Marcus Ong..

Is Marcus Ong comparable with Philip Woo?

You must remember that Sunway College is Platinium Status . There are some lecturer as mentioned by some people about some above but these lecturers make students pass . There are a handful of sunway college students take classes at other colleges as well ( Here Sunway gets the name when they pass) LEMBU PUNYA SUSU SAPI PUNYA NAMA . But some lecturer mentioned above are outstanding . I must say it could be because of Ms Menon sunway can survive the P levels (sorry if i did not mention oithers altough) some destroy the name but students just feel that the facilities there are the best .

So these are yet to be verified whether sunway gets to maintain their good result because of their students attending their lecturers class or other lecturers class . I know my pals go to extra classes near by Sunway at KSA , KDU , Inti and Taylors. And they also say there are good too.

Added on January 4, 2012, 9:57 pmHi Michelle Just take my advise . Go to Philip Woo . You will not regret .(now you know why Taylors charge you high) But let me tell you something else P1 is a subject you can self read . Lecturers are just a guide . I guess anyone can deliver P1 well . But any way pls see the recommendations list in the 1st page of the thread .

how to go to extra classes? do other tuition providers accept students which only want their tuition but not the exam?

i practically joining sunway because of ms. menon, i'll be taking P1 & P2 in sunway but any1 know how to change group/lecturer in sunway? the handbook states "students must seek approval from the executive director, head of op, or head of program for the switching of any group from the one originally assigned." can i switch group coz i dun like the lecturer?

Ignore the handbook. They are just tuition providers. Just tell them you want to change group, which they will surely say no with reasons such as class being full, etc. Don't give reasons like you not liking the lecturer, give some other valid reasons.

wassup folks...

looks like someone's post has been deleted

Hi Mickey Zeng,

Thanks for the advise!!

I have one more question.. I just found out that I can juggle the subjects combination in the 1st P level..

Between these combinations.. which would be a better combination??

P1 + P2

OR

P2 + P3?

P1 and P3, no doubt bout it

I'm already enrolled in class for P2.. So no choice in changing that.. ding.. But a lot of people are telling me to take another subject.. But between P1 and P3, I can;t decide.. Any advice??

In fact, is it very stressful to take P2 with another subject?

later take P2 with P7.

you should take P1 + P3 now. although there is only little relevance between 2 of them.

P2 is totally irrelevant with P1 and P3

Aiks!! Ah! I shoulda have asked you guys before I enrolled in P2.. I've paid my fees d.. So can't change that.. So now the next option is whether to undertake another paper with P2.. Any recommendations???

try to talk to the management that you want to switch to other subject, since you are not claiming for refund.

if really no choice then take P1

I would say who cares about combination this kind of thing?

if u noe well u will do well

just take p1 and p2 together

it will be okay

moreover you're just enter into P level

just take the easier one (p1) with p2

p3 need alot of critical thinking and writing skills

which you should probably develop from P1 and P2



here's why: P1 syllabus half of them can be said just memorising and another half is understanding (starting from risk - ethics)
P2 have 35% calculation and 65% writing
P3 have at least 90% writing marks, if not near 100%, are you prepared to do this on ur 1st attempt on P papers?

and I'm sure if u plan to take P5 next time, P3 will be best to take with P5 cause they are inter-related

p/s: dun too obsessed with easier to pass if do this and that decision, you should go step by step
resource (knowledge) based vs position (outsiders' evaluation based
resource based is always better cause u depend on urself and no excuse to blame others if you followed their wrong advises
on ur situation

p2 + p3 might be just a value trap combination

Added on January 5, 2012, 5:43 pmand 1 more thing, P1 will provide you the foundation u need on ethics

or risks which will be asked in p2 p3 and subsequent papers

if u missed P1, the marks will be gone or reduced greatly due to wrong concept

many ppl will disagree with me i think

I agreed with you TOTALLY on this, P1 should be the FIRST P paper to be taken, it is the fundamental cum easiest among all.
