Alright, thanks. Will inform them.

Whilst I've done 4 papers consecutively and I can tell you it's not impossible, I don't recommend anyone going the way I did. The amount of continuing effort and focus required is very tiring and can make you feel as if it's really a big suffering. Not only that, sad to say doing 4 papers will require you to know where you can afford to cut some slack or skip, and it's not a skill and luck that everyone has.

So yeah, take 3 at most unless resit.

ahhaha u're checking online I presume? it merely means that ur docket is not prepared yet. don't worry too much, i got that too last semester.

Well, I did 4.. mainly because of momentum. I felt if I suddenly dropped from 4 papers to only 2.. I'd lose pace and let myself get sidetracked.

Understand the relative standards well, according to my fren who did impressively well for her P2 last round. She seemed to display good ability to comprehend what the question was asking.

Usually it tends to be on the ability to grasp why is there an issue, and the overlapping areas between standards. P2 is after all a professional paper and I suspect that the examiners are starting to move towards the conflict areas (aka how to treat prepaid operatings leases for example) for examination (just my hunch lah, don't take my word for it)

or in the cases of shares with very vague descriptions, identifyign how the subcomponents of such financial instruments might be.

this semester might see some ethical issues on risk as well given the financial meltdown in wall street. I suspect they may ask on risk of financial instruments if used without due care. (theory, maybe in paeprs P1, P2 or P4 or even P7 if they ask on auditor's ability to understand and comprehend the associated risk of financial instruments used so indiscriminately)

I mean, that's what I would think I should prepare for la.. no idea what u think is right, though.

if you want to know, mostly nothing.

Sunway, I believe offers full scholarship for CAT if you SPM results is about 12A1s I think. Not too sure, it's under the Tan Sri Jeffrey Cheah entrance scholarship, please consult sunway for more help ;p

Anyway.. to each his own. ;p

I don't think so. The scholarship is ONLY given on actual results.

Anyone attending the November 8 graduations?

I disagree. P4 isn't bulky. It's more of an understanding paper, so if you get your concepts right the first time, it'll be easy to build up on it. However, it's recommended you have a logical mind and common sense when dealing with P4, and perhaps some basic experience on how options and currency trading works.

I've done P7, and well, it's comparatively easier, as my lecturer likes to tell me it's a paper you can get away with lying.

sunway has mr goh teaching p7, but then... since everyone here anti sunway, i guess i shouldn't really say anything.

I find such culture particularly apparent in the accounting industry, I wonder why....

Yeah, I agree on that. Doing P6 really is very practical and useful, especially u eventually step into audit or tax lines, where deferred tax can be.. @_@

i recommend whichever that's most convenient for u.

Good luck, hope you've got the mental willpower to study hahaha

yes, they do. they all do.

edc = do past year questions. mainly question revision etc.

hahaha p4 is fun, i enjoyed the paper. very interesting and challenging, and great food for thought.
