CPA Advice

ekans

Hi fellow boardies,

I would be grateful for advice on this.

I am working as a trainee accountant, doing like a 35 hour week.
I am planning to do taxation on F2 and corporate reporting on p1.

Would throwing in an extra module on p1, to do at the same time, be too much to handle do you think?

Thanks in advance.

Somebody here must have done cpa surely?

my advice is this, having done acca and sat 3 modules at a time on occasions, and bearing in mind that cpa is truthfully that little bit harder than acca, i would advise you sit 2 and not 3

From my own personal experience, I would suggest 2, not three.
3 is a very heavy load which leaves you little time to do other things.

How much study leave will you get? If you get one week per subject plus the week of the exams then three subject is achievable.

Three is achievable if you are willing to put your time on it.
All I am saying, is the load is very heavy. And If you have a job that demands allot of your time, you will find yourself with not enough time to do what you intended to do.

I had two weeks.
