icic.... 10x for ur explaination....
btw, since ACCA is external exam paper, mean if sumone self study then pay exam fees can take up ACCA? or must reach certain requirement?

then how bout MMU degree? i cant found it in its website... I know that UCSI degree can exempted from part 1 and part 2.

hah...a quite funny question here. if i take up tarc diploma, i will be exempted till paper 2.2. Then can i sit for 2.3 till 2.6 for the 1st half year. then later i take the part 3 optional and core paper together, so if i pass all in 1st attempt, then i can get my ACCA cert in 3 years?

excuse me..can anyone help me clear my doubts.im a final year accounting student frm private uni got full exemptions frm MIA but is it a COMPULSORY to work in audit firm first for 3 years before i get my CA or chartered accountant title ? can i start working some where else like in a bank or comercial side as internal auditor..?? i dun like working in audit firm becos it's like im wasting my chances to get high paid..maybe can get experience but i think i must grab my chances in commercial b4 it closes rite..maybe there will b no 2nd chance.
dilemma...

went to 3.2 exam technique seminar yesterday. almost fall asleep.  somemore the examiner refused to give tips. RM30 for 2 hours talk and some light refreshment. ACCA really expert in making money 

yaya...me 2...planning to go for ACCA...is it very hard???

as what Ms. Coolly always says, "NOT HARD!!!"

then which college d ACCA is the best???can show me the fee per paper???i heard uTAR or TARC veli good

Relevant for CAT 9, ACCA 2.3, ACCA 3.2 (Malaysian variant)

Well.. i think most of u should have known that government has announced RPGT to be abolished for some incentive purposes.. So if applying the acca six months examinable rule, J07 should be the last sitting for RPGT tax n not examinble anymore from D07.. But, from wat i know, even questions for D07 has been set.. How..??

Besides, even though RPGT will be examinable in J07, but in my opinion, it is ridiculous to test student on something that is not applicable anymore in our real life.. What do u guyz think..??

Yup...i thk it's not realistic to test students on anything that is ady abolished. IMO, since the exam Ques have been set, having no choice i guess it's still examinable until the examiner state otherwise in student newsletter....

where can i get past year papers before year 2002?

To Colly & all top students :

Paper 3.5, is it necessary to Quote the Author's name for its model to interpret the point ??

For example, is it necessary to Quote Peters & Waterman in its theory of "in Search for excellence" ??

The word "Peters & Waterman" carry any marks?? I heard it carry 1 Mark which is substantial

If the Question ask to use Model to interpret ur answer.

Does that mean if we put other things which is relevant but not a model, there will no marks be rewarded ?
Or like we forget to quote the Model name (eg. Porter's 5 forces), but we still manage to write its point like Competitive rivalry etc etc points, does that mean we still will be obtain reasonable marks??

Thx

Although u are asking ONLY coolly and top students which im not, i want to share from what I know. Actually if u went to attend mr parmindar class 3.5, he really like to mention author's name and some of them u really never heard b4! According to Parmindar, when u write for 3.5 answer, here are the steps:
1) Identify the issue 1st. Determine how many issue in the questions and roughly guess the proportion of marks so u can know how much u can write.
2) When writing answers, always try to support ur answer based on some models when the Q is silent.
3) Always quote examples from author bcoz it force the marker to consider what u wrote. Most of them really dont know some of the authors but they are forced to give u marks bcoz they cant say u are wrong bcoz they dont know at the 1st place. If the marker knows then lain cerita d la....

In addition, if u want to cheat in this paper, use local corporate example as much as u can to support ur answers....the ang mohs really dont know! I dont know, u may try it out....

That's all i guess......hope can enrich ur knowledge on this subject! If u got anything 2 share pls share with me too! Im also a blur blur student...

ah! q relate to 2.2... 
if i fail to give the name of case or illustration, but do write the fact of the case.. can i entitle to get the marks in that question....

choong kwai fatt not teaching systematic anymore wonder who will give out the tax tips for the coming exam???

how can i contact these lecturer ? -edited-

coolly, an advice for you working as accountant/audit in KL :

Never expect high salary from audit firm unless you are working on a commercial line company.

Good job always come with patience.

Good LUCKS!!

Huh.. Coolly not around only, this thread started becoming so 'messy'..

Let me answer lcyeap90,
1. The 'last part' of ACCA u meant is wat we called the part 3 level (to be renamed as professional level soon in new syllabus). Part 3 contain 5papers.. I dun agree if u said 'easy way' to obtain a degree then continue part 3 ACCA.. First, not all degree qualify for full exemption n entitile u to straight part 3.. Secondly, ACCA is a prof course, unlike any other degree, if ur unfamiliarize with ACCA (or other such prof course) exam styles/techniques, u cant pass ACCA easily.. I have a master graduated fren studying ACCA n yet failed..

2. normally how long do ppl use to finish up the last part exam of ACCA?
Therz no clear answer to that.. If u meant only refering to malaysian student, i might say average ppl need bout 2years for part3.. depending on studying part time or full time, it makes lot diff..

3. Regarding working experiences question, the answer is YES.. You may work while u study.. 3years working experiences can be obtained anytime b4, during, or after the completion of ACCA study.. Well, other criterias to be fulfill such as working full time, certain tasks; you may contact ACCA for further info either website/email/or phone ACCA Msia..

Hope it clear ur doubt..
