Ans:
(1) won't recommend to use text dated so long ago because syllabus have been changing quite frequently for the last couple of years.
though some modules do not change in basic concepts, but the way lecturers write their notes will change accordingly with the amendments done to exams.
(2) more like register as a ACCA student. you will only become member once you complete all the papers and PER.
if you are doing accounting full time now, it may be ok to self study for the level 1 -2 modules. it would be better to attend classes for level3 as it is a whole new era from level 1-2.
Ultimately, you are not required to attend classes under SAA/LSBF/Kaplan or other schools in order to sit for the papers.
You can choose to self study them, but at own risk...
But to consider: if you are already doing accounting program now(assuming at least SIM-UOL Accounting), you can opt for exemptions and spare yourself the torture to go through all the exams again.
Good evening Bros!
I'd just like to ask you people about something, it may interest y'all too?
I found a torrent containing very detailed material , including past questions/ lecture notes etc for ACCA from F1-F9. however the material inside is dated back from 2009-2011.
What i would like to ask is,
1) whether the content is still relevant or not. What do you think?
2)As i am already doing a full time program, can i just register as an ACCA member and go for the examinations without having to go through SAA/ Kaplan? I plan to rely solely on the notes as i don't really plan to be the top scorer or anything, its just to bolster credentials.
I would love to show you the link for the torrent, but am paranoid of uh copyright issues. You can just search ACCA on kik@ss.
Any reply/ feedback would be much appreciated!
