Hi, I'm referring to the post above me which is Ramesh from LSBF. I've regretting taking up his course because it really did not help me at all.

I have no experiences with other lecturers so no comments on that. :)

oh sad to hear that!! so would you be taking any F4 classes next sem?

P3 lecturer- Andy Tan.

F4 lecturers: most of them are lawyers, so please dont expect professional ACCA lecturers standrd. they tends to be less exam focus ie: u learn more about the subject but u cant perform that well in exam

Honestly, I would avoid him. He is incomprehensible and gives me a feeling he does not know his stuff well!

wa.. i only took Ramesh for revision sia.. from what he taught, the students are so good in their knowledge and cases, i felt so lost during his revision lol

good luck for your f4 tomorrow :)

1. Mentor is just another one who is a qualified accountant and agreeing to be your mentor.

2. If you do not have a Mentor, then you need to have a training supervisor, ie, from the place you study for ACCA.

Ya, i also overkilled. It was such a shame that i did not TOTALLY learned from my mistake. I overkilled case study for my mock too.

Only for today, i jumped to Q1b,c....quickly do then kept checking my timing/

I left a bit of time to do my external analysis, i did not even know what i wrote there..

It is easier than June 2011 paper. What a shame that time mgmt might have killed me.

Andy kept emphasising on CSFs and it really appeared! I almost fainted, my hand was trembling when i was writing that! I am not sure what i wrote is correct or not. And then that KPI, do we have to use Balanced Score Card to answer? I anyhow threw that in because i was really running short of time. While reading Q2 and Q3, the words were literally jumping up and down, I was too nervous!

i wrote abit about CSF and gave 2 examples. the BSC model i totally forgot about it..but i think 5 marks for CSF 5 marks for BSC i think you just need to explain the part on BSC which relates to the case not all.

I see. Now i recalled, i wrote CSF (i forgot the definition) as need to be accident free, arrived on time, charge fairly.

Aiyoh, i don't want to talk to you now, my exam is over, you still have P2 tomorrow, please go take a good rest. Then prepare for your P2 tomorrow.

Please don't think of P3. Go and rest. GOOD LUCK!
