I can't help but not ignore this dispute, not because I'm from Sunway myself, but I am of the view that there is absolutely no point to even start this in the first place. The fact of the matter is while ACCA is an external course, it can be approached with a different path. Ultimately, students are the real beneficiaries of the products the respective colleges offer.

We choose where to study based on our requirements in terms of location, environment, study environment and lecturers . There is no rule to say that external students does not have to experience college life, and there is also no rule to say we should. While we are here online doing this, what you all might not know is the directors of Sunway and KL colleges are in good terms, sometimes meeting up for tea and discussion, while we argue online to protect our respective colleges. Why? Does this show that we are immature?

Sunway understands that ACCA is an external course, yet there are those who want to be able to experience a college life while studying the course, and hence the reason they provide. This also explains the price difference.

Choose where you want to study, but just don't go around bashing the colleges you didn't choose. After all, we're all in this together, right?  smile.gif

I'm trying to be as objective as possible, so if anywhere on my reply shows otherwise, just inform me. I really am not looking to make things worse.

strongly agree

Everyone is giving subjective opinion.
Well, EdgarNg, as a sunway student, you rebutted what did Thanatos point of view, and support Carlosandy apparently.
It's quite ridiculous. If KSA is so called "better off", why u study in Sunway?
Everyone is giving subjective opinion, but u are the exception. 

*
why??
because the same reason people would choose sunway...when think of ACCA...
Sunway has been advertising so widely that it injects confidence to d market( we people loo)....especially to outstation students like me....
hostel facility really does help me a lot...as compared to taking ACCA course at other colleges...as im a total stranger to the environment in kl....how would i know wher to stay, wher to get my food, n it might be more safety to stay in campus???

and that time, i don;t even know there are other colleges like Kasturi, Mcrorange n FTMS providing quality ACCA tuition....can you imagine the feeling of sitting in the lecture hall, listening to the lectures..but at the end of the clas, it seems to add more confusion to you afta listening to not-so-up-to-standard lectures...soli,i hv to admit this...n to be frank,im not that stupid as well la...lolz...when ask for further explanation for certain confusing topics,normally will b replied," learn later....or explanation that cannot be understood??"what is this ???

n i thought ther will be nice lecture halls...like those advertised on the brochures...
mana tau...u noe i noe la....broken bench oso got...rubbish everywher....

but, as an oustation student, what choice do i hv, except to bear with this imperfection..i really need the hostel...

to be honest as well, i was impressed by the numerous prizewinners produced by sunway...
i thought the quality of the lectures is the main substance and ingredient that yield such brilliant results....
however,again, u know i know la....what is the actual weapon that those oustanding students were born in sunway..
--their past academic records gave more evidence--
and more interesting, some of them were born by 2 fathers( studying at 2 colleges or more).....

moreover, sunway is the only institution that provide me with full scholarship for CAT course based on my SPM results...
other institutions do not have such offer.....they only give rebates....or refunds rm100 per A obtained....
den comparing benefit vs cost....i think its more worthy to study in sunway lo...

and now....those are the reasons i chus sunway over other colleges....

in terms of quality... i advise others to go to other colleges..

in terms of convenience....come to sunway....

in terms of money...of cause...outside la....

different ppl have different needs....then as hostel accomodation is my need, sunway seems to be d best choice....
though nida spend more la....

I think I've made my point quite clear. Those who did not bother to read it all, read the quoted text from allornothing. It summarizes everything with spot on perception and objectivity.
Kudos to you sir.

Those who feel that I may have offended you, I'm here to say that I stand firm behind my statements. What I said is firmly based on the your own posts which reflects who you are as a person.

*Disclaimer* - I am not in any way affiliated with Sunway or ACCA, I'm just a person passing by, reading education threads. Just so happen that there were so many potential sparks which drawed me to voice out my opinions.

yes, u stand firm with ur arguments....
thx for coming here to clear our confusion...
but i think u hv misunderstood many of our thoughts....
tats wat i feel...sori....hohoho icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

maybe i did support, but for a reason. what he said made sense to me. and the other way round for thanatos.

i study in sunway because i first discovered sunway while i wanted to take up CAT/ACCA. simple as that. i made no comparison or anything like that because sunway was a stable place to go and i entered in january so pretty much time constraint and at that time i knew nothing about cat/acca i just went for it as it was the fastest route to grad. i hope this clears up. but for people who have made more research than me after spm, they have a choice to choose and its up to them.(like u)

uni life is attractive, fun. u make lots of new friends etc. please remember to work hard for acca.
maybe for you it can only be found in uni, for me, life is flexible, i can find happiness everywhere because i believe in giving i will receive it.  uni is just a vehicle, a vehicle in your life, the phase of life. you can always meet different people from different walks of life.

personally to me.
Theres no right or wrong decision. everything in your life is made up of decisions of your choice. you make your life, you are the creator of your life.

you want to follow your sister to have a happy uni life, thats great. everyone wants a happy uni life.  i want a great life too. doesnt matter where i go, i will make my life great, anywhere i go ill meet interesting people.
people is what drives my life, it doesnt matter what kind of situation, environment, where i go i meet great people that  i want to know. its cool, different people have different goals. thus the priority.

Excel in everywhere you go. Survive in everywhere you are thrown into, thats a warrior spirit.
In the end what really matters is yourself, if you want to do it. Havent people mention that sunway has more deffered and dropping students than anywhere else also? .. more come in , more pass, more world prize, more failures, more droppers.

goodluck coolkid, cool nick though.

hi Guys,
   Just want to check whether do you all have any suggestions where to study paper F7?
*
halo....hope i could help you with this...


i attended f7 with ms menon (sunway) -- she is quite good, but always late to class. she will expose you to more than what the exam requires....links standards together so that you could get a better understanding of the standards. overall, she is good, but always late to class. and he class is quite packed, have to go early to reserve seats. and lots of classes.

there are other good lecturers as discussed by LYN members...such as Joe Fang from kasturi.

If the management ask me why I intend to do it outside, I'll tell them for my own convenience, eg. nearer to my hometown and so on... Is this kind of reason valid? I hope the management neither force nor persuade me to take it at SUC.

BTW, how about the characteristics of Mr Teo and Margaret from SUC? Did they fierce? Meet with Margaret before, maybe her pair of big eyes make me abit fear to face her laugh.gif

hey, i want to quit sunway for this semester but to come back to it next semester.
i still have balance in sunway, can i defer d tuition fee to next semester or ask for a refund??

WTA:

1. All SUC students are compulsory to take their ACCA exams under SUC or they can simply choose an exam centre wherever they want?

2. Each papers must be taken in Sunway or it may be allowed to do certain papers at Sunway while the rest taken at other institutes?
*
1. they can choose any exam centre as they like. you are the one filling up the exam entry and not sunway management, thus they have no control over your preferable exam centre. don't worry, i myself was a sunway student, and was not taking exam in sunway college, but in my hometown.

2. to become a full time student, you must at least take 2 pprs wf sunway. if you are only taking one ppr in sunway, you will be registered as part time student. smile.gif tongue.gif

jz my 2 cents.
