Let me comment on today's P1 as well..

I think the paper was fairly ok n up to the point.. And most important, the examiner put it the same style as in the pilot paper.. So, i dun think you all should get any much suprises.. This is level 3 professional paper, requires some critical arguement (in basic term, common sense)..

As the marks allocation (as ThanatosSwiftfire's claim), I also feel abit too much for the amount of points, but i evaluate longer to suit up the marks..

About the outside syllabus matter, i dun think any of acca final part level, u bring ur textbook to exam hall help not that much rite.? At least the examiner asking all qn within the scope of syllabus.. N most of the points i think my lecturer (sheila) did cover with us in the class,

Haha, lucky, my decision to ignore ethics' part is correct.. Throw out Q4 optional, the paper nothing much of ethics ady.. hehe, u will study so much lesser without the ethics stuff.. Ignore ethics n still can answer all the question..

Dun worry, be happie.. A reliable source says this sitting P1 passing rate will not be low..!! So, wait n see la till 18th feb.. cheerz..

Harr..?? Y not just continue force urself to enter the hall..?? Unless u feel money n time is not ur constraint at all, there is no any other reason for missing the exam.. anyway, i think P2 this round pretty much better than i expected.. only Q1 bit time consuming, the rest all okie..

Yes.. 100% exam based.. Feel free to ask question here.. Hope to see you joining this 'nice' course..

There is abit on deferred tax in Q3, but only few marks for simple calculation..
Also, dun forget, receivable is one of the financial asset.. Again, minor marks..

So far, it is not stated anywhere in the acca rules.. But rumours pass on such story.. not too sure how much truth inside it..

I was from sheila P1.. she is good.. making all available notes, with lots good example.. Evything u need to know on P1 she will teach u.. makes stuff easier to memoriz, in point form.. Will do lots of qns in class.. All based on personal opinion ya..

Haha, count me in..

genius man also normal human being ma.. haha.. genius man also possible to fail de ma..

I think quite ok gua.. not too sure, anyone knows how to differentiate the quality, quality control and quality assurance this three terms..??
6Sixma i just vomit n try my best to apply on it..

u may do it part-time in sunway taking one subject...

Dun la say like that.. They just persuing differentiation strategy rather than cost based strategy only ma.. I do think they have the quality in their lecturers teams.. anyway, after all the discounts, im not paying too much only compare to other coll..

Yes, u may.. The annual fees is DUE by 1st january doesnt means final dateline is 1 Jan.. Anyway, pass or not pass u still need to pay ACCA annual fees as a student unless u completed ur working experience (which u pay even more, hahaa)..

Hie, guyz.. Thanks for your concern.. Been busy with work these few weeks and did not have much time come over. Haha, fell so touched saw got ppl asking bout me.. Dun worry, my spirit is always here with you guyz, to do the best, and fight with the examiners.... Study smart and hard.. Thats acca..

Overall acca study is not that bad la.. comparing with the amount of stress you will have later in work, assuming you join audit firm.. haha.. so, do enjoy ur study,

Haha.. ya, kinda fun also can deal with lot client etc.. plus can travel to penang,
Audit is stressful, but if we have the passion to learn and high determination, nth stops you..

Agree.. But generally last time i read the latest version n I think it was well written, good for understanding accounting basic compare to our acca textbook.. So, I will vote that as recommended book also..

Haha, she is your fren also ma..

yup, working is stressful.. but if you are in a good team, it makes things much better.. Im in kpmg, its good i think.. With the flexibility and ppl here.. Anyone interested with kpmg, can help u send in resume..

I am sorry to tell you cant attempt optional paper before you finish up your essential papers..

Please take note that there is no requirement to follow the order of the papers but it is compulsory to follow the order of te 'module' in acca. You cant skip essential module and jump to optional.. You have no choice but to take the essential..

Haha, this is wat u have chosen.. but accounting grad can still go alot other path rite? i seen alot in various industries..

audit life is stressful, people inside sometimes do look like bunch of vampires, haha .. but if you still have the passion on it, you will see the other way round.. evyday is a new day for new things..

Its never too late, be happie with what you have..
