FAE 2009 Freak out Megathread

viconia

I made this thread as a discussion place for anyone sitting the FAE's this year (September 2009).

Have you started studying yet? How much have you done yet? Are you freaking out? Are you taking a break during the study leave? Did you go to the grind school grinds?

Just thought this might help calm nerves to get a support group together!

Legend100

I honestly have not done a tap yet and wouldnt even know where to start as I have a pile of notes of all the subjects mixed in together.

Starting to think thad I should make an effort soon enough but im still not on study leave for another two weeks.

Think il have a craic off the mocks and see how little I know!

viconia

Yeah, I feel your pain.

Auditing is an absolute bitch. I mean, There is just so much to cover, and this whole open book malarky is just driving me nuts. You're kinda reading the stuff, but you don't have to learn it off? It's just weird.

DC86

I done the CAP 2's this week, and the books were really of no use to me as I didnt have much time to look for anything. It feels like the examiner thinks you have time to go off and find what you need.

viconia

CAP 2's a bit different though. When we did the Prof 3s, we had to know all of it off by heart. But there is TOO much to learn for FAE's.

DC86

Prof 3's didnt get asked the variation of stupid questions we got this week. Open book or not, we still had to know how to do the stuff, but they were of no use as a lot of the time we didnt know what they were asking and situations/notes to questions wer very vague or worded that it was unrecognisable as to how to treat it. You want to ask someone for a look at one of the CAP 2 papers and compare it to a prof 3, complete contrast! I wish the exams had of been like prof 3, whic were very doable compared to what we got.

viconia

They really need to fire that MABF guy (or your SFMA guy). He screwed us over in our Prof 3, and FAE last year aswell.

Guess he did the same this year?

DC86

NH? I never gotanything out of his class, he over complicated simple areas and spent most of the time talking crap!

Nah, I mean the examiner who set the paper.

Little Miss Cutie

Do you think they will use the FAE's to cap the number of accountants this year or do you think as it is last year of this exam they will try and get everyone to pass.

Does anyone else think the additional lectures is a bit strange this year? Do you think its linked to complaints about the standard of lecturer?

Hated the audit mock today, spent loads of time writing what i am sure is the wrong. Justed wanted to write enough to prove to work that I am making an effort before they call us in for the usual telling off/ pep talk

There was a nice bit of uproar over the MABF paper the last two years at FAE level. Mind you the pass rate was broadly in line with previous years. The only piece of advice i'd give is never to leave anything blank, make some sort of stab at things anyways.

The biggest thing is organisation of notes, and maybe highlighting little things you think might come up. You need to know, broadly speaking, where everything is, if you need it in the exam. There isn't a whole load of time to be going rooting for things, especially when the pressure is on.

I passed my FAE's last year, and put most of my effort into being organised and staying cool. There is no need to kill yourselves over the next few months, just do the few hours everyday, familiarise yourself with the material (Both content and location :P ) and you'll be fine.

viconia

I find I'm just doing lots of questions and not sure how to... or what to do with them. I try and do the question and then.. am i supposed to index, or what? It's just confusing since its open book.

viconia

Also, to anyone going to the private school grinds.. Any chance you could see if you could get the notes, or share them with any of us?

They're supposed to be really good from what i've heard.

FAEer

Hey guys!

Good idea to start this post!

1. So far I've spent my time organising folders (didn't have them ready for the mocks so only sat two)....as pretty as they look I'm now getting a little worried that time is ticking & I don't 'know' anything....should I just start doing questions or should I try to learn my folders? - Advice please!

2. Also did anyone go to the extra tax lectures? (on today and yesterday in griffith)...I couldn't make it to griffith but would like to hear how they were! - Any top tips from the lecturer on how to approach the tax paper?

Thanks

Little Miss Cutie

I went to the tax yesterday - pretty useless. He went through the mock, didn't really explain anything. I thought the auditing lectures were really good.

Does anyone have an index of auditing? I have one from 2006 written by JR Oakes, it is like a list of all topics ie acceptance of engagement is es ....... The list is out of date and would love an updated one. Thanks in advance.

Hey I probably should have posted these in this thread but I hadn't seen it at the time.

The link is to tax notes which hopefully might help some people.

Maybe everyone here has seen it already

http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055609885

I might have some more notes floating around for other subjects if people find these helpful

McCruiskeen

Good idea for a thread. Motivation to study is so weak at the moment and really loving daytime TV!!!! Steve Wilkos is my new hero.

But I have one question that maybe someone could help me with. I was looking at consolidated accounts this week and doing questions. The nitty gritty of consolidation is a nightmare to learn. But looking at the last 2 years papers there were only vague easy questions on consolidation on the paper.

So my question is do we need to know consolidation in the same detail as prof 3 or can we get away with out it. Also does anyone know if cash flows and foreign exchange transactions are on the FA course as the IAS's don't seem to be on the syllabus?

Any help would be appreciated.

Little Miss Cutie

For FAE we dont need to do out the full consol, you just have to know the journals required.
Cashflows are not examinable, neither is EPS.
Which ISA do you mean about foreign currency?

ma.long25

Hi everyone,

I am doing tax at the moent for fae and was going throught the manual but the flipping thing is so detailed!!!

There are a lot of exemptions from CAT, and i looked at some of them , it would be too muhc to even understand all of them.

I was in group 1 in RSCi and norah corrander has only put up 1 module 3 slides, i was at the trust lecture so i know she has a few.

I emailed and rang the ICAI but as usual they are working on it!!

Anyone got those slides on module 3 tax or any diea how to approach module three without getting overcome with the excess detail in the manual!!

crapmanjoe

Hi all,

This seems to be the place to ask any random FAE questions, so here is a quite stupid one but something that is bugging me

Across all papers, general theme seems to be write some report/ memo or something and include any calculations as appendix's.

The way i generally approach the questions is to dive into the calculations on page 1 and then worry about the waffle afterwards.

Is this an acceptable approach as in have the first 5/6 pages as appendix 1 etc and then write the report, reffering to the appendix in the previous page?

One of our lecturers told us the examiners prefer it with the report out front and the appendix backing it up. You may only lose marks for presentation but they all add up. Could also annoy the examiner which you dont want to do!

FAEer

Hey!

Just wondering if anyone went to the audit grinds this week?! If so were they any use?! Any top tips for the exam per chance?

On the format question - I think its worth throwing down the report headings for the presentation marks! If you prefer getting stuck into the calculations leave a few blank pages or alternatively have a 1 page 'report' with the headings

Introduction: ...3 lines waffles

Findings....3-4 lines basically saying refer to appendices

Conclusion.... findings require your action, please review this document and consult with me before taking irrevocable action...

Almost the weekend - whoop!

viconia

Firstly, on the format, 10% of each exam goes to presentation. I know in the Mock, I went to the last page of my booklet and did all my rough workings (although i think in the real exam i'll just use an A4 page for any scribbles).

Say in Multi-D, I counted each question, counted 2 pages a question andd then started my appendix from there onwards - I felt it was safer that way. Or do your workings and know how youre going to present the appendix, write your report and then jot down the Appendix neatly at the end. Although I've heard time is tight so I wouldnt be sure if you'd have time then. I know for me, I have to do a lot of rough work before i can write something out semi-neatly.

On Study Techniques..
HOw much are ye studying a day? I m ean, how is everyone approaching a subject? I read the BF manual and indexed it, and then found I wasn't able to "get" to the MA stuff fast enough when doing the exam questions, so I just spent the last 2 days indexing a folder with MA topics and reading through it.

But how many hours a day are ye doing, are you rotating subjects? Are ye taking weekends off? Are you studying at home or in a college?

I just wanna have an idea of how everyone is doing and ... where everyyone is at.

crapmanjoe

Started studying this week, doing 4-5 hrs a day, hoping to pick it up to 6-7 from next week onwards, not planning to study weekends for the moment (this may change in August)

Only subject im really worried about is MABF, specifically the MA part. I dont seem to have any notes for that section! Where are people getting notes for MA from?

In relation to the amount of hours, I'm just freaking out a bit. Theres so much to cover, and not enough time to cover it in my opinion.

I've used all the prof 3 notes for MA. You know the Jim Daly lecture notes and such? they're really handy and mostly have everything you need to know.

The only thing i went to Drury for was CVP andd Break Even Because we don't have any notes on that. I gave that chapter about an hour and skimmed through it. Stuff on modern management changes, I looked at the solutions to Prof 3 exam papers - you know all those hteory questions from past papers and such? I used those.

If you dont have some of them, I can try and dig them up for you if you want.

Little Miss Cutie

Are the slides in each module of the tax manual just a re-hash of the long notes? I'm assuming they don't contain anything extra?

Yeah, they're a waste of time. I took them out of the folder. I imagne they are there to utilise in the exam if you want to have the notes in short form (e.g. like Sean Murrays Notes for Auditing).

That tax folder isn't too bad actually. I found it was quite useful and very well indexed.

Little Miss Cutie

Yeah it seems to be the most useful thing I got from the icai! I think I am going to take slides out as they arent that useful. I only started into tax today, had been putting it off big time!

I always say im gonno up the pace in the last four weeks you know jsut to save face in case i fail the exams, then i can turn around to everyone and say id dint study that much

but to be honest im in full throttle now, i started studying immeadeaily and have been working monday to friday about 10-8 each day and trying to do some at weekends aswell, i think im gonno up the tempo and do from 10-10 next week!! im passing these exams i dont care what people say.....

So when i hear about these people saying i ahvent studied yet, get real casue the only person your fooling is yourself!!

I know exactly what I mean. Some people just keep saying they're not doing anything or they're taking time off, and refusing to work anything except 9-5. I find i wake up around 9.30am (I can't get up earlier... I try and sometimes i'm successful), and start around 10.30 or so (After watching a bit of TV and getting soem breakfast). ANd I'd keep working until I know i can't work anymore. I mean, if you've no plans in the night, I just keep going. I stop for Big brother in the evenings around 10pm but again, If you can keep working then I don't see why not.

Thanks for the pep talk! Glad to see theres more people out there like me who don't buy into the "short hours, 3-4 hours a day" speech by some people.

Hi Ma Long, i'm just a little confused regarding your quote above and the following quote from a post that you left on a different thread;

"
Hi my name is Ma Long and although my surname sounds asian, i am a ctually a Polish national. I came over to work in Ireland in 2005 and was employed in the booming construction sector. Since i qualified as a builder in Poland i was paid a very high price for my skills as a qualified builder. My going rate was 15 euro and an hour and was paid time and a half for shift work that was later than 9pm. During these boom times, i worked extremely hard (60-70 hrs ) a week and made a small fortune in Ireland. I was planning on returning home to start up my own building and contracting company called 'POLSKA Builders' but the economy in Poland has deteriorated rapidly.

This is not an option anymore for me, as the polsih economy has deterioted rapidly, like irealnd the polish economic growht was strongly linked to the construction boom. Unfortunatley i was mad reduant on only last Decmebr and am currently on social welf fare beneift.

I have a kid here and am married toa nice polish girl, i think that i want to stay in irealnd as the social welfare is so good. I am curretly getting 203 a week and my wife is the same, there is child benefit and we get money towwards the house. The social welfare received in Ireland is a muliple of the amount received in poland, as a result i plan to stay here,Hopefully after 2-3 years on the social welfare i can save up enough money to buy a number of properties in Krackow my home city.

irish people ahve told me that i should 'fxck off back to poland' and stop defrauding the state by claiming welfare, given the current circumstance outlined above , would you think this is the case DJDC!

Ive worked hard and i like ireland, with its similar climate to poland and its generous social welfare and its fringe benefits. "

viconia

I'm pretty sure his previous post was a Troll, as he mispelled his polish "home city".

well, I'm pretty sure 'Ma Long' is not an FAE student either; based on the standard of spelling he/she uses in this thread I can't see how he/she could have managed to get to FAE level!! Some people must have very little for doing!

Can we came down this thread and keep on topic!

Here is my planned study timetable, hope its of use to some of you's.

God i hate working on timetables.. I wake up sometimes and just go "Yeah, i feel like studying this today" etc. It's a good plan though. Gives us an idea of the times, the days. Ick. Its scary when you see it in a spreadhseet like that...

Gona start exam papers on Tuesday properly I think. Gona do consolidation tomorrow. MABF is gona take me a bit longer I think because it's my crappiest subject.

Thanks Kingkong!

Regarding study timetables in general, I've made my own little rough one but it good to see someone elses view...i've been trying to do 4-5 days up til now (including block release & mocks as a 'day') and then really enjoying the weekends and evenings to keep motivation up!!! once august hits i'll add an extra half day.

I've been thinking what notes might be of use to people but in general i'm using the ones we were given as opposed to the random lots floating around so there not of much use.

I mentioned before about the audit grinds, I don't want the notes from them as I understand whoever went paid for them but would love to hear the lecturers thought on what might come up!:)

viconia

Yeah, I've just been using all the books we've been given.

I have all the lecture notes printed but haven't looked at them. I've just gone:

• Syllabus
• Text Book Chapter
• Make Notes
• Make Section in Folder of important information

Thats generally been me, to date. Except with audditing since that's completely different. I've been using a lot of my prof 3 stuff - like the audit programs. I think have a company law checklist floating around from my work place. It's baiscally all the checks you need for the Company Law part of auditing. If i can find it'll put it up. If you keep that, thats everything you need to "know" in company law. Some people were saying they were reading the sections but I think knowing the section, the points is enough and maybe having the Co Law acts handy just incase.

Viconia,

How do you find studying for MABF with the Finance and Management accounting book. Are they worth going through instead of using the notes.

Very shaky on the MA bit

With Business Finance, I just read the BF Manual. I've used that Finance book in prof 3 for one or two subjects (like Capital Structure, and CAPM), but that BF Manual is absolutely brilliant. I mean, seriously brilliant. Evertyihing you need to know for the entire course on BF is in there. Theres 13 chapters and I've said to people beofre, do one chapter a day. They will take an hour or two. One chapter (12, i think) will take a bit longer. but i tmeans in 2 weeks you'll have it done.

On the MA side of things, I've been using my own prof 3 notes. In prof 3, i was very scared of MA that I read most of Drury. So, my notes this year were:

• Budgeting = Jim Dalys Budgeting Notes. 30 minute skim through Budgeting chapter in Drury, to make sure His notes didnt cut anything out. Tab examples
• Variances = Jim Dalys notes, tabbed again. Do Prof 3 exam paper (maybe 2) to get back int he swing of it.

I'm not sure if you have these, but the distance notes for prof 3 are the best notes you could ever use for MA. They summarize everything, and tell you what chapters in drury are relevant. If you don't have these, I'll upload them. But i found they were brilliant. Thats what passed me last year.

Hi Viconia,

If you (or anyone else for that matter) could find the time to upload some MA notes then i for one would be very greatfull. The only subject i havent seen any decent notes for!

Thanks

Hi Victoria, i admit i was trolling in the past, and i was banned from the forum, frankly those days are behind me and im osrry if i offended anyone!!!

I was wondering victoria could you upload those prof three audit programmes and MA notes from the distance, that would be amazing!!!


We should all help each other in this deperate time of need!!

Thanks

I found these 5 lectures, from my prof 3 notes. These are basically everything yo need to know. I checked them against the Drury book and If you put these in your folder, highlight and tab relevant sections, you've got those sections covered.

I'm trying to find Transfer Pricing but can't seem to locate it now. If worse comes to worst, I'll scan it in for ye, since I have a printed copy.

just printed them out now. Will be using them during the week. By the look of them they seem very comprehsive. Goin read them and then do the questions and see how I get on.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the MA notes Viconia... they're great as we really don't have any.

I seem to have very few Multi D notes too - would you be able to put up some of your own or did you have good Multi D notes yourself?

Or does anyone have some good notes for this subject that they could upload?

Thanks...

Hey, has anyone started auditing yet??? Every time I think about auditing I freak out. I think there is just too much material to be covered. I don’t know if I should read the handouts from lectures and then try exam papers or just start straight into exam papers. I went to the revision lecture in UCD and was thinking auditing was not that bad after it... but now looking at my notes it just makes me feel so sick. Any Advice?
