a friendly reminder to all those taking acca 1st time or 2nd time ...

calculation is not the crucial point to pass (nevertheless important)

writing/theories is the essence

it'll definitely make me feel better if indeed majority thinks P4 this sitting very tricky and harder than all the sittings that I tried... There goes another 6 months, I'm getting old...

1. it means I gave up
2. it means I have to attend class to learn up new paper, not sure I got time for that, perhaps weekend classes. Furthermore the other 2 papers are by no means lighter to handle.

but will consider your suggestion tho..  nod.gif

you already attempted 3 times incl this 1 right? if im not mistaken

sometimes, it takes greater courage to give up and start anew rather than not knowing when to give up wink.gif

i noe it's hard to choose between ur interest and faster way to pass ACCA

F5 was hard. But F6 today was one of the easiest papers for F6.

It appears you were i'll prepared. Best to not take so many papers. Just tend to dilute your effort.

it's not really an issue if u take many papers

but MAKE SURE you start revision EARLY

no last minute works if not you will be just wasting money and time

p/:s i darn lazy to create those parody lyrics this round

nope this is my 2nd attempt.. I think I will try one more time..
the feedback at opentuition really described how I felt... really different from the past papers that I did, and the absence of int or currency hedging really killed me..

u might still nick it...dun be pessimistic yet

anyway it's been like half a year since I last visited OpenTuition

I'm taking P6 too biggrin.gif   If DTA's out, they'll probably ask about PE and the benefits of having double tax.  That's what I think smile.gif
Taking 4 papers is difficult, you have to put in a lot of effort.  I've tried that before and seriously one needs to start revision early from the start.  Anyway, goodluck!

PE- fixed place where the business is wholly or partly carried on ...incl place of management...branch...workshop...factory and construction site where consistitutes at least 6 months in msia...

Dta- minimize or avoidance of double tax in 2 countries. Provides favorable rate when withholding tax arises for non resident..

I wonder like tat enough or not ..whether i should
Go deeper


Added on June 13, 2012, 8:28 pmI hope no calculation out for dta. S132 ( bilateral relief ) and s133 (unilateral relief ) is confusing enough

Ethics, risks and governance are one of the easiest things in ACCA... I don't understand why so many people hate them, especially ethics.

I think ethics is an interesting subject, it allows you to understand other people's thought process.

governance is boring...but risks and ethics are the best way for you to score marks in P1

if there are, lecturer will revise with you again

p7 needed much more knowledge from f8
