Coundown to acca results release, one month!!!! scary!!

because, the cost of livings here have increased, because chairs in the exam hall was so plastic!! aching my back. because it is time for me to settle down, because the tuition fees also have increased, paying 735 pound per paper only for 5 times attending classess(not enough 4 me), i dont think it`s value for money, because i`ve been away from malaysia for so long now, nearly 5 years no return. and before that also..so the total now i`ve been outside, nearly 10 years. so..i need to know about my own country..malaysia.

i used to work with chartered firm, all about this coutnry VAT, so bored, why do i need to know about this country while i`ve got my own.

erm, pretty sad story.. but itz too over la 735pound (RM5k+) for only five classes.. Its about RM1k per class, wat sort of gold the lecturer gave..?? haha..

If u really decide to return to msia, welcome back..

Anyone? Feedback on mr navzar from FTMS??

Yes.. You can take UK tax variant in any of the Malaysian exam centres. Just be sure to mark UK variant when you register for the paper..

And it solely dependso n u if u plan to work in the UK or Malaysia. If you plan to work in Malaysia, then Malaysian tax variant is more variant.. And vice-versa..

Yes.. There is a law paper in ACCA.. Paper 2.2..

anyone have the new sallbus paper code?

i only know 2.4 have change to F9
i also heard that 40% of p3.7 will be in F9 for the new syallbus. :'(

Just a question. Does anyone know the number of ACCA graduates in Malaysia for one year? People who finish ACCA I mean. Can't find that


The magazine says each graduation around 400 for each graduation. so that works out to about 800 each year. But I heard the real figure is somewhere around 2000..

yeah,i heard from my lecturer..he said paper 3.7 topics will be in 2.4(F9)..and guess what,he hope student will pass tis last round june07 2.4 because F9 will be quite difficult,actually all new papers will be tough,including audit formerly 2.6 will become audit&assurance which is formerly 3.1..so,there will be a combination of assurance+internal control review will be covered.cuz 2.6 currently is audit and INTERNAL REVIEW,so new syllabus there's no internal review but assurance.but in order to establish a proper assurance control,there must be a proper internal/external control+to understand the duty of int.auditor..and the optional paper all have the word "advanced"so assuming that it is tough(lot to learn) compare to the current syllabus..current issues is getting bigger,the scope is wide and more people are creating fraud,things are getting advanced,thats why ACCA is revising its syllabus to combat against this factor..but i do think that ACCA+ICAEW are the leading prof.body which is very demanding today..so,dont give up,we're the BEST..-exam result are coming soon-

again, when exactly the DATE in march coll 2nd intake after the result??

another question: i am now 29 years old going to 30(old yeah?) do u all people think is it wise to study full time without working (for the sake of experience)???

or should i just forget about ACCA and just focusing on finding a job??? because i know it is hard working and studying at the same time.

Actually u can refer to FTMS for their premier express class that will start one week after the results are released....it's not a 2nd intake but a crash class/catch-up class. So, it's like attending new class. IMO, age is not a barrier to gain more knowledge. Yes, of course it will be a gargantuan task for someone like u who is working n studying part time.

i am now registering Sunway and FTMS Home Study package. having trouble of registering tru online and up till now have tried corresponding with them, waiting for their feedback, and with all this fuss i feel i am so so wasting my time. sigh.

i dont know whether this is worth it of doing.

Sunway prices 163 american dollars
while ftms prices 65 - 100 american dollars per paper

I am currently doing my OBU on Topic 8 Financial Analysis but then i am having difficulty on the format and where to start. I have a mentor who is my cousin brother FCCA but then he couldnt help me much because in his days, there is no such thing as a OBU thesis.

Could anybody pm me on the format and preferrably a sample of a Topic 8 thesis. I respect "NO PLAGIARISM" and what i need is just a simple format and the things that i should include and not-to include.

Which is the cheapest place to study ACCA.?
Strictly for part timer as Im working during office hours

perhaps if u need some soft chat, u may go to this link ACCA's chat

i wonder where our honoured cutie advisor coolly has gone. no news nor posts from her since she went to HK kinda miss her as she used to be the most active member in ACCA forum

hello...everyone here...

I dont mind about the lousy lecturer as Im used to it back when I in the uni years.
Thanks for the reply.Will check the kasturi for more info.

hihi everyone...i am back...
sorry for missing for quite sometime...luckily recently there is nothing much needed to update about acca...beside the change of the website look..which i don really like it...

thanks roy for remembering me...i will be back to answer those questions that i know and also thanks to gary for helping to answer to the questions..
hope we can make this thread an active and informative acca thread...


believe that is a good qualification and go for it without thinking it is hard ,difficult ...

jus remember one thing,nothing is impossible,we can pass,so do u...
don't scare urself before u really make an effort to pass the papers...
all the best to u...

in that case,then i would suggest u rather don spend money on attending lousy lecturer class lo...u can use the money to buy the textbook and do some self study...

jus remember one thing,nothing is impossible,we can pass,so do u...
don't scare urself before u really make an effort to pass the papers...
