For F8 in KSA, 2 lecturers will run together, so you need to choose one from them la.

I advise you better choose Philip Woo bcos he is give better explanation and understanding as compare to Jackson. Btw, Philip Woo only come back weekend to run F8 & P1 in KSA, that's the reason his time table in Saturday la.

I'm not sure about PJ lecturer. Btw, Philip Woo and Sheila are the top F8 lecturer in KL currently.

Ya, u are correct, Philip Woo is from Kasturi School of Accountancy (KSA). I think KSA still accept student for F8 currently if the class not full yet.

Better buy new one la since 2009 edition already out.

KSA never practice students limitation, as long as one pays then still can attend class. I knew one girl once that skip almost 75% of first term class as she was holiday in england. She can still register but have to pay full amount lo. I never heard KSA reject students bcos of of overcrowded obstacle. The best case scenario is to use Parmindar class, I have my fair share of experiece of seeing some late students that forced to study without table for 6 hours & suffer in silence.

Ask the college to help then some will say, heck they have already cramped 300 students in a 100 students hall capacity. Sometimes this is what you will get if all decisions are made by ACCA people. Money is No 1 & student satisfaction is No 2.

First P1 class during Dec 07 (ie the 1st sitting in new syllabus), Philip Woo class got more than 250 students, they reject student register for 1st term course and said the class already full. In 2nd term, they still reserve the place for 1st term student until result out then baru accept new student.

No point la, cause next year only I will do my P6, by then, can get the 12th edition already

Just becareful about tax though since CKF Tax book (although recommended) has many differing views of both F6 & P6 examiner. You will see examiner gives answer A & he gave answer B (although both are accepted for exam standards).

have you guys check out the latest acca student magazine?

i wanna ask about:

seminar held by McOrange
for the professional ethic modules

whats that?

Guys, today at college, I received a notice saying that ACCA will increase the exam fees for Dec sitting.

I also saw something like "applicable for those who sign up after August XX"

Anyone know anything about this?

i did not enroll during his first class but yea, they are still accepting students.

Ha Ha, I think u don't know too much about CKF. He is the person like to challenge ppl even in the practice also. In the class, he told us a lot of story about how he help his client to challenge IRB ppl (don't know whether true or not la).

Btw, that's no fixed answer for P6 oso since today's P6 is more on advise client question. So student no need to worry this thing too much la.

Does anyone have any idea where to get this book? Thanks!
I also noticed there are 2 versions of the book:

1) Exploring Corporate Strategy: Text only
2) Exploring Corporate Strategy: Text and cases

Does that mean the 2nd one would be better?

hey acca ppl! wana ask which college/uni is appropriate to study acca? is segi recommended?

In acca, we are more concerned with the lecturer than the college itself. Its the person who teach you which is more important than the building you are going to. However if you want to familiarise with acca style first by sticking to one college then Sunway will be recommended for now.
Segi used to be quite good in teaching acca (also known as systematic) but they have diversified their business & acca becomes their "by-product". There are far better place & lecturer in other places compared to those at Segi's.

You can refer to 1st page for recommended lecturers for ACCA if you prefer to follow lecturer to study ACCA.
