As per my last message you will need to pay the application fee 1 month after applying and also the subscription in january

No point waiting until jan as you still need to pay two fees

Right update

Applied on 5th June 2018 at 13:35pm
Received approval email today 6th June 2018
Member status to update 10 days after 30th June 2018
Certificate 12 weeks after that

Spoke a lady she said the £236 membership fee should be paid within one month of applying..i have an invoice in myacca online

A subscription fee would need paying come January 2019 roughly about £236

I can use the acca initials after my name once membee status is updated and before i pay the fee

Hope that info helps someone

Hi

I passed my final exam on 16th April 2018 and today just had my final objective approved by my line manager.

I have got 36 months worth of practical experience and have completed the Professional Ethics Module.

What is the process for membership? do I just wait or do I need to apply? on the MY ACCA page nothing has changed apart from telling me what has been completed.

Thanks

I was like you all after passing my last exam in march. I didn’t know where to start or what to write.

I have now completed 6 with the help of my manager. (as in giving me criticism and advising what else can be done to complete the objective)

What I did was write a statement answering the description and also giving 3 or 4 examples which help cover the elements.

I was on usually 500-600 words so then had to cut it down to 300 words.

first one is always the toughest

[Tahir]

Did both papers P7 got 74% p5 53% passed first time.

P7 i found easier as i just pointed out anything that felt wrong or could be manipulated.

P5 i was stressed as when doing past papers the answers i thought were different to examiner so its just luck in the end

UK Version is all lumped together while other variants are split out.

Advantage you can write anything to get the marks and not limited to specific sub questions.

Disadvantages there no structure so you cant allocate time to each part.

[Tahir]

Did this exam in September 2017 got 74%

Think trick is to think like an auditor and anything that looks or feels wrong in the scenario is wrong…thinking outside the box works with this paper

[Tahir]

Used opentuition lecture videos and also did all the questions in the revision kit for Kaplan.

Passed first time but most of the answering is to do with understanding the question.

Some questions in the past paper you think you know the answer then when you see the actual answer it is completely different.

This exam is more about understanding then memorising.

In march we had benchmarking, ERPS, EVA and transfer pricing, hardly any ‘normal’ models it was all understanding the scenario and talking about it.

[Tahir]

Think is the bit where it says create letter of good standing then you can print some letter to say your status or something like that..will be found under the address box on myacca

[Tahir]

I thought ACCA was masters level or have i got it wrong?

I think from myacca you can print a certificate that shows you are an affliate and have completed all p level papers..

Also does anyone know if we need to start submitting cpd points? Just got an email about attending a seminar to get 7 cpd points??

[Tahir]

Passed first time with 53 now an affliate.

Previous results

P7 74
P3 52

P5 i did using open tuition lecture videos but mostly doing past papers think i did every single one in kaplan revision book.

Also in exam time limit yourself to 1.8 minutes a mark be strict..i left some questions half answered then went back to them at the end but main thing is to fo all questions.

Also learn the theories inside out like balance scorecard benchmarking eva transfer pricing all which came up in march exam.

Im just so relieved im dont with exams its been tough.

Good luck all and praise be to God who answered my prayers.
