i can guarantee you that you don't have to go THAT far to answer for exams~

oohh like that one.. well i'm pretty pretty sure lecturers especially audit ones will have those for their own personal safekeeping, be it legal or illegal

at least my lecturer had some of those before and did tell us she can't copy it for us

13 feb is on mondayy~~

get readdyyyy yeehaawww!

i also no take spm meh.. no prob laa.. not dat i wanna say i hebat, but really its not that big of a deal.. dun worry at all

and btw, CAT already eliminate laa.. no more CAT. now starters have to start with Foundation in Accountancy (FIA) ... and i dont hav the slightest clue how dat works.. coz i also from CAT straight ACCA. no dip, no deg,

but ACCA is always the same.. no change like one i mentioned.. only that, if you come from degree, u dont hav to do F papers.. after grad from deg, straight away do P papers.. IMHO, its SAFER to do degree first. slightly longer route but okay also laa.

i wish i studies in sunway...

why tuition fee can pay for car d/p one

cuci mata mesti syiok ah!

LOL.. i can't brain anything~~~

anyway, goodluck resulttttttt... today saturday... tomorrow sunday...

the day afterr... butfak day XD

well at the very least not at this kinda momentt no wayyyyy...

will get serious once its all out... this mondayy~~

if say, u have no other choice but to take 3, go n check time table.. min 3-2 days gap not so bad..

I'd say 2 months before finals you have to put your heart into it.. do lots of questions especially past years because similar questions tend to roll again and again. and believe me, they really do. well, doesn't mean you can ignore your textbook.. still read laa..

I did past years for each of those papers for 3-5 rounds.. until everything get 'stuck' in my head.. get the pattern set..

F7: do lots of practice for consolidated accounts, cash flow, and those SOFP + SOCI.. these almost ALWAYS appear.. the 2 other questions must be touching on IASs. so read up on that. I remembered that i did a question on contract cost and the exact same pattern came out, so i find myself not needing to think hard on that and just put the numbers on place. exercises help.

F8: almost always, they will ask on assertions, so know your assertions for completeness, existence, valuation, cut off, etc and your substantive tests, recalculation, analytical procedures, vouching, tracing, inquiry, observation etc
and then got internal controls where u gotta comment and recommend improvement. and theres also question on ethics (audit threats)... u gotta cover the accounting cycles wages, nca, payables, receivables etc

F9: famous questions is on investment appraisal, so do the NPV table kinda questions lots of times. u usually need to carry out WACC calculations to calculate cost of capital, so master those kinda questions. foreign exchange also quite famous, so master those terms spot rate, average rate etc. dont forget how to account for inflation as well.

you must make time at least the last month before finals, and just continue on doing questions everyday. i'd recommend 3 days shift between the papers and not studying like a week for one paper, and then continue for another week for a diff. if like that, you'll find out at the end of the study period, u already forgot the earlier ones u studied.

hope it helps!

waaa... never found someone so brave like you..

but i must say, P4 does have its advantages.. I'd say they shine a lot in banks particularly investment.

goodluck..

just so you know, P5 usually have highest passing rate among the Ps.. at least some time last year, it happened

aiyaa.. regret looking at this thread... sudah kenaaa..

hi guys. biggest dumbass reporting in..

i passed my p2 58 only.

p5 p7 fail. 40 and 45 aje..

so thats it... wtever... i cant describe my feelings right now..

aiyaaa.. feel like crying when i see other people results..

congratz guys!

huaaaaaaaa so touched


thanks~ will knock a lot of sense into myself!

my aunt finished her masters and did her ACCA after that.. she still had to go through the pains of audit for the first couple of years before she found a place in bank negara.. that is if u wanna do audit also la. Anyway, her pay is RM7k in BN i think.. the other day she showed me her bonus it was about RM64k

now shes scheduled to move to UK under Bank Negara. Don't know if her masters had anything to do with that
but still, having Masters.. feels good if you have the chance to do so

hi there. P1 is all about reading. theres a whole lot of stuff to memorize but memorizing isnt good enough unless you know how to anticipate the pattern of questions. So do a lot of past years and exam revision kit. That will guide you on how to arrange your answers accordingly. And time management is totally important.

as for p2, i failed myself 1st seating. they key failure was over emphasis on calculations and i poorly scored 35 marks only in fact nowadays, theoretical questions on standards IAS and IFRSs are bearing lot more marks than just calculation. Last seating i remembered theres only 30 marks for calculation and the rest for standards assuming u strike out the optional calculation question. also, P2 love to test new stuff. like when IFRS 9 came out, theres a whole 25 marks for that. they also like to test on issues with current accounting treatments, like weaknesses and such. i rectified my mistakes and got 58 this time. nothing much but its still something i can be proud of.


i'm sorry but i think there is no more CAT. They have replaced it with FiA i think.

I wouldn't say the same for P6. F6 level tax with P6 level tax are worlds apart. Ask your lecturer. or maybe sifu here can explain? from what i heard, p6 is crazy

Time wise, if you do P1 with option p6 p7 is better. First, there is the gap. at least you will have the weekend and a few days until wednesday to prepare for P1. p123 is back to back and is such mental pain.

and then, theres the syllabus. There are internal control topic in P1 which could come in handy for P7. I think theres more to it than just internal controls.

aiyoo whyy? I could never do that.. P6 is crazyy.. way too many things to brain than P7

haha if one paper aim for world prize la

study like mad..
