Affiliate fee is 101 for me. My guess is, he is already an Affiliate for more than 3 years, so he's paying the maximum fees due whether he's a member or not.

Are you sure that you only need 7 papers from CAT to transfer to ACCA? Is this a new implementation following the introduction of FIA?

Doing T8 provides you with a good background for audit F8. F8 have been known as the killer paper in Malaysia. I have friends who have failed F8 more than 3 times and still have not passed the paper yet.

I think this is loads of bull. What is the point of introducing the papers then if people can just take the easy way and enter ACCA that way. It is just not cost effective and they should just make it 7 papers.

These are comments from a few lecturers of yours?

I can't seem to find anything on the transition of CAT to ACCA with just 7 papers in the website.

Ethics is a very important part of accounting. I just can't imagine what will happen in your working life if you are already taking corners during your tertiery education.

Might be a glitch. Happens all the time, whenever I want to pay my membership dues or register for my exams.

A good command of the English language is necessary if you want to enter the accounting world, especially in audit. It helps you save a lot of time, not just in the working world, but also in exams since you don't need to waste time thinking for a better sentence structure or wording that will make your answer even more convincing.

You have to write notes for exceptions, audit procedures, etc that is understandable by the next team who will take care of the engagement.
