hey there, can anyone please let me know the pros n cons for these two lecturers, Joe Fang and Haneef for P2.  Couldn't decide which one to attend for revision class.  Thanks!

Joe Fang - Very good, special and fast technique in Consol method. If you use his method to answer 35 marks Consol question, you might finish it between 35 to 40 minutes. But Joe Fang won't cover so detail in FRS. As I know, he only run in very simple in FRS.

Haneef - Very good and detail in FRS. His consol method is more on classic "T" a/c, very good for understanding but very slow for answer Consol question in exam. Some student feel Haneef consol method too slow, then go to Joe Fang to learn his special technique. One more thing no good for Haneef was he is very boring lecturer. A lot of student feel sleepy during his class

But since you prefer only go for revision class, I strongly recommend you go Haneef. The reason was if you never study normal class under Joe Fang b4, then you will find very difficult for understand Joe Fang Consol method in his revision class.

Hope it can help you la rclxms.gif rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

It depends on your preference. If you are weak in standard go to haneef, if you want faster calculation techniques go to Joe class. However the problem with joe is that unless you attend his class before you will be clueless in entire revision class since his method is quite unique and students whom are never exposed to it might find a lot of problems later on. Haneef is more student friendly as you don't need to attend his class to understand what is being taught.

I am just curious why you are not attending your current lecturer's revision ?

I think one will only be bored in Haneef normal class not revision. In F7 maybe but I don't met many that are bored in P2, maybe they are this rclxub.gif compared to this yawn.gif .

Diploma are equivalent to lcci / cat in acca so exemption is only around 3 - 4 papers max.
ACCA is a post graduate programme which is considered tougher than degree in professional level.
The first 9 paper is similar / tougher than degree.
The next 5 paper is similar / tougher than master.

Since you prefer study part time, then you can go KSA or Mc Orange la. For F1 to F3, it is not difficult, so you no need to consider a lot for experience lecturer la. Once you are in Part 2, then baru consider Quality and experience lecturer. Btw, you can refer 1st page for the recommendation lecturer.

The reason why most people find Haneef is boring is because his lecture is pretty straightforward, like a walking encyclopedia. He goes real slow in his explanation, and loves doing those 'what if' analysis, and going for the worst case scenario situation. But I think if you're willing to learn and have a strong will to absorb knowledge, Haneef's class should be okay for you.

His calculation is very classic(journals and T accounts), which I find it usefull especially when working, for exam purposes if you're creative enough you should be able to invent your own short cut to do the calculation.



Oh yeah I wanna ask one question, I've sent my exam entry with bank draft like 3 weeks back through registered mail, and untill now the website claims I still haven't send my exam entry form, so tonight I'm going to pay online.

So just wanna ask, what will happen if I already registered online, then somehow the bank draft reached ACCA just in time also. Will ACCA credit my account with the surplus fees? Or they will just refuse the payment?

I think you should call directly to confirm first. The most viable one is to called acca mys at wisma denmark to confirm whether the uk body has already accepted your payment. Maybe Uk already did but need time to check through bank a/c, update their registry system & then confirm via online to you. Although you can pay via credit card if you are worried for fail safe measure, but the part of crediting your money will be 50-50. But i think there are others who also have the same dillemma as you so acca may credit your surplus.

Mine is bit similar where they post me in my letter to pay annual fee but I already paid few weeks ago but they did not update soon enough. I just paid anyway so the annual fee for next year they already deduct. But suffer some forex loss.....

Is studying accountancy in Sunway UC good? I heard that they are very famous for their ACCA programs. Is it?

Most Unis nowadays offer accountancy and finance. Is there a huge difference?

One more question, ACCA or CPA better? I heard a lot people saying the CPA is a gold class accredited accountant status compared to ACCA. You tend to get a higher salary with CPA compared to ACCA. Is it true?

CPA can only be get in Australia?

Would really appreciate it if you could help me out with these questions.

Thank you.

If you are confident of your ability then start straight away & you may straight pass all your paper & finish entire acca programme in 2.5 yr to 3 yr.
If you want extra security then take up a degree first & get maximum exemption of 9 papers (exemption depends on degree relevance)
ACCA is meant as post-graduate programme in UK but they are a bit lax in filtering new students so you will have students from all different backgrounds.

One thing about acca is that the paper will become more difficult as you progress and hardwork alone will not guarantee any success. If your analytical & logical skill is strong it should be ok, as the paper becomes less accounting in advance level & more advisory in nature.

Sunway is famous for CAT & PART of acca programme. At advance level speciallist lecturer not centre will be more advisable.

Regarding the degree difference it will be different based on college reputation, geographically & cost involved. I think there is a forum in real world issue discussing about degrees difference.

I have met some who argued before about ACCA vs CPA, i cannot say which one is better like (Coke vs Pepsi analogy) but I can quote facts :
- ACCA exam is purely in writing but CPA is objective paper
- ACCA has lower passing rate compared to CPA
- You can take acca in MYS but you can only take CPA in australia as there is no tuition provider here & CPA has very little exposure
- ACCA has more exposure in MYS compared to CPA & many company are more related to acca than cpa.
- In terms of finding job chances are you will find more acca holder employer than cpa holder (so you decide whom is easier to get hired)
- ACCA is more accomodating in terms of suiting local business adjustments so for certain subject you will have to learn in MYS & International version but I don't think CPA will do that. You will only take CPA if you want to work in Australia.
- For fresh graduate your salary will be the same whatever you have, whatever you earned later depends on your IQ & EQ so if you don't know how to stay in the game less salary for you. But with acca / cpa your increment salary will be higher than degree holder. So far I havent heard anything about CPA earned higher than acca holder purely on that basis alone. I was interested where you actually get that info from. PM me if you don't mind.

Now if you follow foreign blog / forum you will see the majority in the world will agree between the comparison of CPA vs ACA vs ACCA, acca is deemed the better overall terms.

CPA is also available in USA but that is different from the one in australia.

The universally accepted point is :
CPA = you want to work there then take this qualification else it will be not that synergy in other country
ACCA = you want to work everywhere then take this qualfication.

ACCA is more globally orientated but CPA is restricted to that country governance & standards like Australia & US. So why take CPA & then work in MYS plus what you learned in CPA some of it you cannot apply at all in MYS.

Hope you appreciate the answers icon_rolleyes.gif
