For those with working experience, are you allowed to run your own "online " or freelance services/ business(not related to job of course) if you are engaged with any firms?
Or is it in breach of contract?

For some that is bonded then finding side income is definitely out of the question. (Reasoning could be time constraint). I think as long as the side job will not affect your job performance or jeorpadise company trade secret or in direct competition with the company then company will be more tolerable. However most do it in discreet form of manner to avoid detection. Its like you already have a girlfriend but also seeing other girls kind of situation.

Chances to pass is lower? Maybe you should rephrase and say chances to get prize lower, but pass is easy, if you STUDY Many people say that because they don't work hard enough
Sunway has too many students taking ACCA and the passrate is always higher than world pass rate.
take,(A) 10 people go for exam and 8 pass, or (B).1000 people go for exam and 600 pass. How objective is your judgement? you want a high relative measure, go for (A), 80% However (B), eventhough its 60% pass rate, but the absolute number of students passed is 750%higher Just like the arguments for ROI and RI

Some time need to depend on your luck oso. I got friend take P1 to P3 in TARC exam centre last sitting, he don't heve time study P2, but finally he can get 52m in P2. P2 so difficult, some more take in higher passing rate TARC, so we can said?

This one is psychology, if the marker keeps on marking good paper, eventually his standard would be higher and his marking would be stricter, compared to going to some other exam centers where the scripts are all of low quality, and the markets kept seeing bad answers, and eventually his standard of marking will be lowered, and hence if you can give good answers, the examiners will definitely be impressed.

Actually I am new to ACCA, Here is the best place to ask all guys and girls out there. I am self study, so want to take exam for F2 and F3 soon for June Examination. Where do I register myself for Exam ACCA? Where do I pay the exam fees and collect docket? Where do I have my exam.? As I read above that, Sunway and Tarc is an exam centre. Beside that, where does it have? Nilai International University Provide ACCA exam or not? Heard from somebody on it. Can anybody help me getting the answer.? Thanks! Added on April 12, 2009, 11:26 pmQUOTE(pcm123 @ Apr 5 2009, 12:05 AM) wutz , so fast v5 adi . too many accountants produced....... What you said it true. Supply more than the demand like that. Quite scary and make me think of changing my future occupation. This post has been edited by one19944: Apr 12 2009, 11:26 PM

Apart from sunway & tarc there are other centres in KL also like sedaya near connaught or you can apply for Fed Terr (others) which normally in IPB near kampung pandan.
Don't worry about supply demand equation. As long as you don't mind starting small & work hard there are bound some position for you, but these days most people always wants to start big. About V5 don't bother too much about it since acca open its membership to members of all ages & background. There are those who passed that never failed, there are those who passed after 5 years, there are those who joined as a degree holder, there are those who joined after working in firms.
Like in my advance level, 90% of the student consist of working people so just study ahead.

Added on April 13, 2009, 1:40 pmhow about KDU? Last time i choose under TARC (purely to follow friends not convenience) but after CAT, and in first few papers in acca they alloted me to some where else instead in KL. Technically its quite a blessing in disguise as the place is nearer to my house in centre of KL. IPB should be located near Maluri & Kampung Pandan area of KL. Try google around. Just an opinion & observation, many people choose IPB bcos they believe that place is very good locationally to yield high marks in exam as some in this forum believes. But I do admit the place is less stress compared to TARC.
