hello all,

I've been hearing both SAA and Kaplan. Can I have any advice which is a better school to take up ACCA course at?

Actually, for ACCA courses, you may take one module at SAA and another at Kaplan whichever you preferred.

Personally, I was with SAA from my F4 onwards and I feel that they have a fair share of good teachers. However, it all lies with the student. The lecturer maybe good but the students may keep failing and failing.

group consolidation position~

Hi, congrats! Have you started working in this position?

For this position, you need to remember all the consolidation technique that we learned in P2?

Actually most of us forget the consolidation the moment we step out of the exam hall. (Actually i am talking about myself.. Haha)

Care to share? Just to open our mind to various position our qualification can lead us to. Thanks!

yup this job must have in-depth knowledge with FRS and consol techniques. starting the job next mth as im serving my resignation notice now~

i cant recall my consol knowledge now too~ the finance director told me to go back refresh memory before start date. when he interviewed me, he asked me what is the double entry for consolidating parent account with subsid? assuming no goodwill... i cant even answer dr sales cr cos hahaa

as for your career options, i have tried to apply for stat-board with ACCA before and i got an offer. however i rejected it as the career progression is slower
