No la, but in the future better dont do that again
Start question on new page helping examiner to mark your paper, but if u didnt do it didnt get penalize just better dont do that again

I don't get what you said! However, if you have started every question on a new page then it is considered good and even ACCA says to do so. You don't need to start every part of a question on a new page.

Ok great. Thank you! Helps my peace of mind. Mine wasn't out of a concern for paper but rather It just slipped my mind to leave some space.

Well, that's Malaysia for you.

I see. Anyway no worries. Enjoy!

haha Enjoying ACCA!!!

You must understand a little more about ACCA.

Previously the foundation is known as CAT, which is mandatory to take all 9 papers. t1-7 and 2 optional papers from t8-10.

It is renamed to FIA in 2011 if I'm not mistaken and only require to complete the FAB (t5), FFA (t6) and FMA (t7).

If you completed all 9 papers in FIA, you will get CERTIFIED ACCOUNTING TECHNICIAN (CAT) QUALIFICATION.
(source: http://www.accaglobal.com/en/qualification...se-details.html )

However in Malaysia, MQA required you to get CAT to study ACCA (assuming have no higher qualification or spm).

That is why it is no wrong to say CAT as you need to get CAT cert to continue ACCA course.

The way you wrote was kinda offensive lol
Never-mind though! But usually many students get confused with these two qualifications and even the colleges seem to not tell them about it!!!

Do you mean this statement, "You must understand a little more about ACCA"?

That it indirectly assumes or implies <something impolite about your knowledge> from your perspective?

Haha. Sorry if that's what you feel but I didn't mean it. It's not offensive actually, just details. (with no capital letter and offensive words). The first line maybe?

I'm writing it just as a guidance only and time-saving, so less hassle in trying to understand the system.
I was one of the students facing issues during the transition period of " from CAT to FIA".

Exactly that Sentence attracted me
I didn't really read the other part and was trying to figure out why is that guy trying to fight haha

haha its alright! It was the first sentence of yours! I might have found it a bit offensive since English is not my first language and neither I am bothered to learn English

Haha. well, I'm not lawyer, just an accountant. was trained to count figures and not argue with words.

Exam has just ended. Time to relax!

haha its okay!!!
Best of luck for the results

I'm seeing a "buddy"-ing relationship. In my culture, fighting makes a relationship stronger.

looking for study buddy for next coming JUN 2014, P2 (int), anyone interested may email me chiaw3n@gmail.com

IIRC, in order to obtain CAT qualifications, you'd need to pass 9 papers.

What about now? Is it still 9 papers, or only 3, based from your reply?

haha lol

I have one extra set for both F8 & F9 past year papers (both up to June 2013). They are new & clean.

No binding. Just normal fastener.

Would like to let go at RM10 each. Originally costs around RM18.

Interested party please PM me.

Thanks.

Can anyone recommend F5 lecturer? Thanks..

The P2 appears to be fine to me. I have practiced a few past exam questions and mocks on cash flows, financial instruments, determination of control, revenue, lease, held for sale assets, PPE etc.

What a kill is the theory on accounting policies in Q4, although the application appears to be fine.
