QUOTE(babysept @ Feb 23 2008, 02:21 AM) my case is a bit complicated.. yaya...i understood wat ur trying 2 convey...uhm.. im a Tarc student.. Part 2 and 3 of ACCA, its internally assess and also externally assess for Part 3.. this will be my final sem and im taking the optional papers, P4 and P5. Im having my final exams in May for P4 and P5 (internally assess), so i was thinking.. since i have not pass F9, means its impossible for me to take up P4 for external exam. So i was thinking whether is it possible for me to take up F9 and P5 for the coming June sitting. I do not want to waste the knowledge which i've studied a month ago for my final since i still have them in mind.. IF thats the case, as what u hav said.. meaning.. my next sitting, i have to take up F9 and P2. What if, i wanna take up F9 and P3 instead of P2? Is that possible? fundamental level is being assessed internally... but professional level is both internally and externally.... there is a rule from ACCA, stating : 1)fundamental level --> pro ( core ) --> pro ( optional )....unless ur being offered 2 do d optional pprs b4 d transition period, you must complete ur core pprs 1st... thus, its not allowed 2 tk f9 n p5 2geta (assuming tat ur not in d exception category ).... 2) u can take any papers in d same module regardless of its sequence.... thus, u can take p3, den p2 den p1....any orders wil do but they must b in d same module.... anyway...u can check wic pprs u r able 2 sit for d coming exam tru acca website ma... hehe...hope im not wrong....

 Sunway or TARC.... Tis is not a major problem actually.... Sunway offers CAT--> ACCA (which can b completed normally in 3 years...or if ur smart enuf, 2.5years...) however TARC....offers another route to ACCA....diploma (2 years)-->advanced diploma cum ACCA (2 years) -->optional top up degree in UK.... if u prefer TARC route, i wil suggest u to go to INTI TAFE diploma in accounting....Which enables u to complete d diploma n ACCA in (fastest) 3.5 years....n TAFE diploma is quite recognisable oso...  im from sunway....(shhhh) for CAT, sunway is reli gud.... but for more advanced levels such as d professional levels n sum skill modules...i wil suggest to go to other colleges as better tuition quality is guranteed....(however, going outside means tat ur self discipline must b vvv strong as ther is no supervision from d college or lecturers towards ur progress of studies).... Kasturi, FTMS, Mcorange offers gud tuition for ACCA....n its tuition fees r much reasonable compared to XXXXXX..... however, if u prefer gud competitive study environment, den sunway is undeniably d best among all colleges... coz u can know lotsa frens in d college, n this creates an invisible/ transparent comparison of standards between students....weaker students wud work even harder to catch up wf gud students...n gud students wil work even harder to score HADIAH....haha...  do not oni consider colleges tat r premier plus(platinum status).... hehe...jz my 2 cents  Added on March 31, 2008, 12:03 pm QUOTE(Little_Angel87 @ Mar 31 2008, 08:02 AM) Then better start wif CAT or ACCA part 1? since i m a science student in stpm.. no acc basic i do hv a fren hu starts from CAT, holding STPM qualification....n she did vv wel in CAT...but i do hv frens hu do not hv any basics in accounting...starts wf ACCA part 1....n they r doing fantastically in ACCA....it depends on urself....work hard n u wil get ur rewards..... gambateh...

And do you know that most of the famous lecturer also run the class at KSA or Mc Orange, this type of college merely like tuition centre? I asking you some question also, for Sunway student, they have a very good college life but due to some lecturer inexperince in teaching ACCA, so a lot of the Sunway student go to KL college for additional tuition or attend revision class. Do you like if you study like that? Some more you already paid more than thousand per subject in Sunway and go to KL paid few hundred for additional tuition or revision class, do you like it? If I'm you, I won't choose to waste this money.  so,2 avoid tat, for ACCA pprs, chus d rite college ya!!!haha... This post has been edited by Joel718: Apr 1 2008, 10:50 PM |

However, in Sunway, most students went there alone. Thus, people would be able to click together much faster also. As said, we can't live alone on earth. When "alone" meets with "alone", "crowd(friendship)" will be created much faster than you can ever imagine. When choosing ACCA, you maynot restrict yourself only to TARC and Sunway. These 2 college would only provide you with campus life. However, since d course that you choose is ACCA, even though you're living in d campus, you won;t have much campus life though. 5 months of lectures and 6th month you are required to take external exams already. study environment is very good in Sunway as they have a darn good library(ISO 9001). Lecturers, well, few years ago, most of sunway most famous lecturers(andrew pang, choong kwai fatt, chow chee yen) have all left sunway. There are still some which are very dedicated. try decide like this, which course is better(suits me better)? diploma n advanced diploma...or CAT-ACCA/ACCA part 1-ACCA....or university degree.... which college is better? study environment, lecturers : Kasturi, Mcorange, Sunway, PTPL, FTMS, kolej bandar... hehe ..jz my 2 cents ya!!This post has been edited by Joel718: Apr 2 2008, 05:01 PM |

It's just that all the smart students tend to go there, same like how the smart students to go Taylors. Probably because they are not well informed that there are other places to study too. agree...i had my campus life in CAT...What a lot of people don't realize is, prizewinners got their achievements from lots of hard work, and not Sunway. Trust me, once you're in there, you'll feel nothing special. I spend so much time in classes, I don't even use the library or anything. So there is no campus life anyway, even if I'm at Sunway. Sometimes my lunch break is only 45 mins  To me, there is only one good lecturer in Sunway, which is Ms. Menon. but when it comes to ACCA, its like tuition life for me... haha... agree evithing u sed....mayb v r from d same college gua....haha....

QUOTE(carlosandy @ Apr 3 2008, 11:06 PM) Do you know that the prize winner from Sunway also appear in the Kasturi/MCO name list? haha...easy man..You said no many student go out for tuition? I tell you a story la! My friend in June 2005 attend the 3 core paper in Sunway, majority of his classmate paid 3 paper school fees but only attend 3.6, and go to Kasturi for additional tuition for 3.5 and 3.7. And do you why Sunway and TARC student can get Kasturi student price for revision class? B'cos Andrew Pang know a lot of them will come to KL for additional tuition, especially for Professional Level paper. I always put the priority on the quality lecturer. Study environment is not very important for me cos ACCA is external exam. We are ACCA student, but not Sunway, MCO or Kasturi student. All this college just provide us a tuition class, they nothing to do to our qualification. For me, paid extra too much fees to enjoy the college life is waste. Some more, they fail to provide us with quality lecturer, so why we still want to paid too much? haha..im one of sunway's student goin out for tuition ma... tk it easy man... not more than 20% of d students in sunway went out for tuition la...hehe... esp those having menon;s clas...not so flexible..as she had lotsa lotsa clas...n den changes in d timetable... btw...studyin in sunway doesnt provide us wf college life...d same hapen too..i go 2 college, straightaway lecture hall....den have my lunch near college...go bek home...haha... Do you know that the prize winner from Sunway also appear in the Kasturi/MCO name list? yes...i noe...long time ago.... |

QUOTE(c2v4l @ Apr 4 2008, 04:31 PM) Hurm.. IMO and from what i read, Sunway does have special relationship with the big4. Of course not all student from Sunway will benefit from this. Most likely only the top student. And I read in this thread that companies usually send their worker here to pursue higher education. So all things remain equal (exactly equal - like a person who has a twin and one go to sunway and other go to some other tuition centre and their intelligence and work rate is the same) I believe the one going to sunway will be more advantages (slight) than the other one. u will get to know the difference of standards once u step in sunway...n other colleges...Anyways, In the end, your result reflect your hardwork. Having a good lecturer is will help but certainly studying hard is more important. The lecturers in Sunway is capable that's why they are being employed, but there's a better lecturer around but i believe the difference is not that much. Anyways, this is just my 0.02. I have yet taken my ACCA, Will start in July. Cheers haha...whether it is BIG or small..... but anyway, you will get the chance to switch college any time...haha...jz my rmo.o2 oso... |

B4 they enter Sunway, some of them always thinking college life, want big big library, enjoy the study environment and etc. But after they go in, baru they know nothing special. stephanie...based on your comments posted here....i personally think that your english standard is not poor loo...Added on April 9, 2008, 12:07 pm Don't worry, a lot of student even use broken English to answer exam question, but finally can pass. Examiner will won't fail you b'cos of your poor grammar. Try to use simple English and short sentence to answer question during exam. As long as marker can understand what are you try to write, then they will give u a marks. But no matter how, you need to improve your language also not just for exam, but also for your future. Like me, my English not good, so I keep on to improve it lo! above average.... cause you din make any grammar or tenses mistakes here.... think of the english standard of those students from middle east taking ACCA.... your std is far greater than theirs.... so...+++ oilll.... |

QUOTE(ThanatosSwiftfire @ Apr 9 2008, 02:33 PM) you people seriously anti-sunway, eh. face the facts, if you freaking sucks at studying, no matter what lecturer you get, you'll still bloody fail. ""KSA or McO is a row of shops. It provides ACCA, and does it quite well, I admit. So tell me, why majority of the prizewinners, aren't from there? Good lecturers motivates you pass, very true, but a good environment gives you the push and drive to excel."""hahaha, yeah, RM10k not worth if for college life for some of you, yeah yeah, I know, why the f*** pay that kind of money for college life eh? Sadly, not everyone is as money minded as you people, and frankly, if you're life is all about attending lecturers, then go back home, I'm not surprised if you don't find it worth it at all. College life is having a place to study, with people, to have club activities, and mug for exams with friends. If you study at KSA or McO and whatever, and you have that, good for you, but the environment is better, more club activities, more rounded generally at Sunway. If you people, choose the submit to the limitation of all financial management methods, which is ignoring the issues of motivation, peer support, and all the other intangible things that a proper college environment provides, go ahead. It's not a matter of cost. For SPM leavers, and those not anxious to work, it's a feeling that we've been in college before and enjoyed it. I'm of the opinion if you wanna bash sunway, for fuxx sake, fuxxing bash your own place first, especially carlosandy. KSA or McO is a row of shops. It provides ACCA, and does it quite well, I admit. So tell me, why majority of the prizewinners, aren't from there? Good lecturers motivates you pass, very true, but a good environment gives you the push and drive to excel. Yeah, I guess to some of you, your priorities is to pass, yeah. Go ahead, be content with mediocrity, and I'm sure it'll reflect throughout your future. And your money minded approach will just reflect on your attitude to non-financial performance indicators. To me, I don't intend to be that money-minded. u confirm sunway produced many ACCA prizewinners?? ACCA i mean.... n look at the backgrounds of those prizewinners from sunway....they had a very good academic record even b4 ACCA enrolment... i knew ur a world prizewinner too...n having a good time in sunway.... those threads are jz our comments....not meant to offend any1..... sum of us here....reli nid the help of good lecturers.... not paying bulk of $$ for not-up-std lecturers.... jz my 2 cents |
