changed liao lo..my english no good ma..hehe...

but i welcome all suggestions..let's improve the thread...

i like the "honoured cutie advisor"

hehe...the bulletin i shd delegate to my smartie assistant..

in acca,we also learn delegation hor...

ya,i graduated already...currently acca affiliate lo..

i know much about lecturers a?hehe..coz i like to ask around those lecturers,how is he how is she like that lo..so that can try to give much info and guide to students..beside that,some lecturers are quite friendly der lo..
so some i still keep in touch with them...

wei wei... when i change sex liao..

i am not male leh...

haha...wat u wan to know more about me leh...me cool or not o?


haha...yalo..not only u say la..all also say me geng in -----> lepak at home!

this thread sure long live as long as i am here..when i start to work or retired liao..then i not sure la...

sorry a...okla..forgive u one time...next time don't make mistake lo..

who tell u i work in big 4 der?

nola,me still not working...haha...this shows u din surf our nice acca forum..

umm...no matter how...life must go on...so if u really fail the paper,jus learn and think why u fail that and make sure u won't repeat it...

acca is not difficult to pass..by the attitude towards the study must be correct..

so when u see the result,jus face it..get back the book and try one more time..

this is all u can do i think..coz it is worthless sometime when u look back for wat had past...past is for u to learn....must stay in present and plan for ur future....

suggestion accepted...hehe..the link is added..

ya,i agree with wat haneef said...frankly speaking,when i 1st start any new paper in my acca studies,i never think i pass or fail...i jus study consistently and do wat i can do to prepare well for the coming exam...

then jus go for it..the word "fail" never appear in my mind before exam...and "if i fail" only appear after i finished one paper...hehe...

i think they will marked u "absent" if u did not attend the exam ..

about 3.2 class for next sitting,ckf haven't reply me o...maybe u shd check with segi 1st...

umm...frankly tell u la..u next time,no matter how la...cannot walk in with the mind to fail...coz it will reflect in ur answer....

so no matter how,u must not give up and cannot have the mind to fail lo..

so wish u don have this mind in coming 2.4 la...

haha...low give u medicine liao...so support him...

haha...is okla..u new comer..forgive u la...me very nice der..
i am not working yet..but will start with audit for sure...

me last time studied in FTMS,except 3.2 in segi...

haha..no bo..where got? saling tolong menolong only la...

haha...u and hellokitty ...2 kali 5...

haha...i believe low shd be very happy if he knows that someone really admire him some where on the road...


yalo,3.2 is ckf...wah sei...who said i gila ckf?nola...i jus know him only la..where got gila? hehe,if u know him in person,susah to gila him la..maybe many xiao mei mei will la... but not me lo..me promote him coz he is a good lecturer and frankly speaking la,i admire his knowledge lo...

hehe..i rarely skip class der wo...even got,also becoz due to certain circumstances that i got to deal with...me good student ma...

for me la,ckf is good lo..coz beside learning the tax knowledge for exam purpose,i got the chance to learn some tax planning skills and also some extra knowledge which might be helpful in practical or to our personal...umm...frankly speaking,the main concern for ACCA is audit and tax lo..coz these 2 i think are the most practical papers but yet the lowest passing rate in acca history...finance and ma also important,and therefore acca provides more choice to students coz some students prefer not to start with audit der..it all comes back to wat u r interested actually...

if u asked me la,in term of knowledge wise,i think 3.2 is the most useful...then for 3.1 if u wish to join audit,i think by learning a bit on 3.1 does help u see a better picture..
but i got fren taking 3.3 and also joining audit,so actually it does not really matter wat option u take la....jus take the one u more interest in..the finance is the 3.7 now,which also one of the hardest paper..but as long as u know the techinique to tackle it...it is not so difficult after all...i always think the learning process is on going..so just study wat u like now and then improve on other areas in the future or when u feel necessary...

u also start to bully me liao la....smarties bully cuties...

haha...in that case,i think i will try my best,ask him don conduct class..so u cannot go in to prove....

me is good gal ma..won't simply tipu ppl..but frankly said la...lecturers sometime really based on individual perception der...


umm...if want join big 4 hor..i heard la..better take 3.1 leh...

ya,u can take another option for knowledge purpose,last time i also thought about this..but when i think back..when we go out to work..we also start to learn many things that we cannot learn from the papers..so maybe we can jus concentrate in learning wat we can when working lo..instead go back to classroom and study for that..this is my opinion la...

haha...wah...say me like that leh,hellokitty....

but it is true also la...i can repeat the story again and again der...not only i said leh,u also like to listen ma...


haha...nvm...u all jus open la...i also can go inside and kutuk him der ma...

omg...just left one day not online already 2-3 pages...really very active here ya...

hi all, I'm currently a holder of diploma in food technology but I want to further my studies in ACCA. May I know which college is best and what's the duration and course fees?

in my opinion,maybe at 1st we are paid lesser compare to many fields out there...but for having a professional qualification,i believe we can climb up to a higher level with the experience that we gained through out the years..

and if u say compare to sales person which can get higher than us..like doing direct sales etc,but i think it is quite unsecure lo...if u are asking how will i sharpen my skills,i would say i will try my best to learn as much as possible while i can and also try to keep myself up to date to the lastest development of the industry..always keep ourselves equip with the necessary skills and knowledge..in that case,i believe the people can see and ur talent will be shown giving enough time and also able to grab the opportunities...

don worry too much since u oledi sit for the exam...u can't do much anyway..

unless u pray hard that ur script lost then maybe they will award u a pass...

jus keep fingers crossed...

besides sheila..

u can consider philip woo at kasturi also....

my fren said he is good also...

then this time also tough a?

hehe...for acca ,my fren took before...taking 2.5,2.6 ,3.1 and 3.2..all pass in one sitting...

for myself,i also got took 4 papers at 1 time..but in ICSA..

ya kah....i want to see..but my place no star...

congratulation to every one....now u all can start to enjoy ur holiday...

wat u want to know actually?

if she interested in accounting..she can take up CAT...using SPM result...

niu niu....wat is the name of the article about the college?
