3 members replied to my post and I have randomly taken the first reply to take the issue a little further. This is the issue of written English.
A good lecturer is not there or able to improve the quality of it.
We're doing ACCA, a strategic paper that in normal circumstances, most of us would not be able to finish all the question with complete set of answer. Therefore, we need a strategy to pass the exam. A good lecturer with his experience able to point this out. Without a good lecturer, students tends to take more time in establishing his own strategy which may or may not be usefull at all.

For a written paper like P3, you cannot pass the paper by memory work.
Becuase we are dealing with factors which are inherently uncertain such as people and the weather which affect strategy, the examiner is looking at how you provide factual, logical arguments. No two answers will be the same.
Yes of course. English is one of the factor in passing ACCA. However, as long as students able to apply the concept and write out explanation and argument appropriately, i find no reason one can't pass P3. A good lecturer is here to point student how to tackle question. Points to be take note and etc.

Therefore, coming to my point, you need to express yourself well and be able to have a good command of English. This is to help you understand the questions and express yourself well in your answers.
Of course english is important. However, what i'm stressing here is. Even though one may posses a good command of english, but if the lecturer is weak in teaching, he/she may not be able to pass the exam 'easily' than those who have better guidance from lecturer.

With due respect, there are many grammatical errors in the written replies of all 3 members who posted. The examiner is UK based and so is the Body, this is one major issue. How many Malaysian students fail their written papers due to poor English? Is a lecturer able to help you in your English? Afeter all, he is not there to teach you English.
I would be interested to know the pass rates of Malaysian and Singapore ACCA student members. Is this available?
You may try to contact ACCA Malaysia and Singapore respectively for the information.
A good lecturer is not there to help students who's weak in english. However, he/she is there to helps the student by providing a strategy way to answer and tackle question and understand the framework in respective subject easier. Which comes back to my point:

Wrong. Good lecturers is a basic ways to success. Without a good guidance from lecturer, we might take more time to learn. A good lecturer makes you success faster and easier. A bad lecturer also can give u success, but you've to take more time (resit).
With a fundamental rules, you must have a good command of english. Need not to be well versed, but at least no problem in reading and understanding.This post has been edited by keith_hjinhoh: Jan 11 2008, 11:56 AM

Their websites got telephone, they will let u know 
Reason? ACCA allow you to study accounting standard, audit and tax in Malaysian syallabus. While CPA is merely for Australian accounting standard, audit and tax. If you are the employer, I'm sure you will employ someone who is familiar with Malaysian laws and regulation.
