No one should be blamed for inaccurate spotting in the first place. Who really knows what the examiner sets, right?

Uh oh, I hope less casualties this round. But tell me you all did your best in IAS.. hmm.gif

It played a big role in helping me pass last sitting

I think I can help you on this la.

1) Dr Tee is good in F5. He was one of oldest & experience lecturer in ACCA as Andrew Pang, Low Chin Ann and Chow Kim Tai also his student. If I'm not mistake, Dr Tee will give some extra class one week b4 exam for discussion of exam technique. As I know Dr Tee don't like lazy student. If he know you are lazy, then he will ask you to transfer to other lecturer class.

For Andrew Pang, he is very good & fast technique in calculation, but in theory just so so only. Study under Andrew, you won't have problem in calculation if you can follow his method. In theory part, normally he just explain in simple way or some time just read answer only, so you need to read more yourself.

2) No choice lo, you either go Alan Yeo(Kasturi) or  Low Chin Ann (Kolej Bandar)

3) If you are 1st term student, then you will get free Kaplan FTC textbook, except for F6 where you will get Alan Yeo Malaysian Taxation textbook. But all these textbook is Kasturi photocopy one, not the original buy from Kaplan (Don't worry, Kasturi already get copy right from Kaplan, 100% legal, haha)

Dr Tee used to teach in Sunway if I'm not wrong. Had a fallout with Mr Teo and went to KSA. Most of his students at Sunway went to KSA for that term to continue under him.

anyone can explain how the acca prizes work?

does it add value to the cert?

is it possible to get a prize by self studying or must I go for lectures?
i would also like to know, if i were to study at KSA, where can i look for accomodation?
is sunway worth it coz sunway offered me tuition fee waiver based on my A level result for paper F1 to F3? should i go there to study? but then in order to get more tuition fee waivers for other papers, they say that i must get malaysian or world prizes. how do we get it? is it tough?

do we really need to go for lectures for paper F1 to F3? coz i understand that it's mostly theory so a lecturer cannot help much right? it depends on the student to memorize? correct me if i am wrong.
i actually started reading kaplan textbook for F1 till chapter 4 then really no mood dy. reach the leadership theory part. coz no one to push me to study or no one to compare my progress with. haha so suddenly i feel that i should go for college. do you have this problem or feeling?

as you can see, i am the type who prefer to self study, but at the same time i like to have study buddies to talk about our study progress. i never really rely on my lecturers, i only need their notes and past year with answer. haha that was how i did for my A levels. not sure if it is applicable to ACCA. and i have seen the acca syllybus,, it is super duper ultra extremely hard and beyond normal human being capabilities. tongue.gif  i mean, how do you people memorize so many things?

BTW, i have no accounting background. my A level is chem, bio n maths.

It's not fair to compare. But having taken A Levels before and going to ACCA, be prepared for a big jump. The whole A Levels Accounting syllabus is taught in 6 months in ACCA.

Previously, they (UK) took almost one month to reply each of my emails. Maybe you can try call the KL office and see if they can help you with it?

They took 3 months just to change my OBU status. It was their mistake in their first place too.

It's 3.5k, way cheaper than Sunway. As for your questions, it's better you contact a mentor. Pm if you need the number. Location is at Sunway/Subang
