FAE 2016

Whats the main difference between the FAE books provided by CAI and those provided by CGS? Are they summarised? Easier to understand?

Hello students,

I took early retirement from industry ten years ago at age 56. I was a chartered accountant, qualified in 1974. Back then you could do either a degree plus three years practice and final two exams, or five exams over five years. I did the five exams in five years.

I've read a bit of the thread and it is full of abbreviations. Can someone spell out the abbreviations for me, and tell me what is the route to chartered and other bodies now.

Degree - cap 2 - fae - chartered
Masters - fae - chartered
Accounting technician - cap 1 - cap 2 - fae - chartered
All with relevant work experience.

Does anyone have a copy of the May 2016 AAFRP paper?

Just a bit of trivia.
Around 1970 my boss showed me his finals examination papers ~1950.
From memory they had about eight exam papers in a short timeframe.

That's what the FAE exams are. You have the following subjects examined in two sittings:

Business Leadership
Audit & Assurance
Finance
Financial Reporting
Management Accounting
Taxation

The first exam is called FAE Core and the second is called FAE Simulations
And then you have the exam for whichever elective you have chosen.
Those 3 exams are done in three consecutive days.

I count 7 exams. So we are back to the 50s

Did anyone hear anything since submitting membership applications on Friday?
They took payment off my card straight away on Friday afternoon but I don't want to jinx it by asking them if mine was ok!

It Balanced!

I applied on the 25th Nov and the money came out of my account last week. No confirmation email or anything yet though.

Hope my CA Diary is OK!!

superb choice of username

Your applications will be presented to the membership committee on 13th Dec when they will decide. You will get confirmation email up to 5 days later if no problems (http://www.charteredaccountants.ie/en/Site/Services/Your-Institute/Admissions-to-Membership/)
