ajanaku2: It feels good being a Chartered Accountant!

I wish you Guys success! E no easy!

No be lie! It really feels good being a Chartered Accountant. Please guys keep burning those mid-night candles. It will eventually pay off one day. It gives you options. You can decide to practice or land a lucrative job hopefully. The job market don tight sha o o. No be joke o o. As an ACA, you can do a lot of things actually. All the best guys...Gabriel ACA

gbengress1: Fellow ICAN students, let's hear your view about last November Diet exam.
As for me, my exam centre was Ibadan and I wrote PE 1. The AA and IT was not that friendly..
Let's hear your own side of the story

Thought as much cos i saw a lady crying after AAA. i wrote MA and IT and i think they were ok. The compulsory question in MA was tricky though but i think i will ace it by God's grace.

La Rochelle: I did mine in UNILAG. The BCRM was crazy. When I saw the questions, I was like shocked. I don't know how an examiner can pack only research questions in multiple choice, and pack communication questions in SAQ. SAQ was not friendly. The theory ehn, I just messed up question 5. The chi square question, I don't know if what I did the correct thing but I rejected the null hypothesis. All in all sha, ICAN should better take time. Na only one paper I write, I have to pass it.

@ PE 1 students, how was your MA? The man that sat beside me did not write anything tangible. No ask me how I take know. He was just staring at his question paper. One of my friends was like we should reserve space for him, that he knows he'd write MA again.


i have a friend that's been writing MA for †ђє past 3 diets, this is his 4th diet, i chose not to ask him cause he doesn't look like he wants to talk about it. The MA was kinda ok now. i also think candidates should study †ђє ICAN packs more, at least for PE1, that i know. Their MCQs and short answer questions were mostly lifted from their packs.
Re: How Was Last ICAN November Diet? by rckdude: 7:16am On Nov 23, 2013
ickychinky: what r d textbuks for pe1. D ones i can start readin nw

For MA, i think Adeniji would do. But if u want to solve many technical questions then also get Ade Omolehinwa's Workout Management Accounting(that is if u have the luxury of time to read the book). ICAN study pack will be useful too because they bring a lot of questions from it.
IT and AAA requires ICAN study packs, I think that should suffice.
For FA, not too sure about it. But FAMS Vol. 1 would help for the special accounts. Am yet to see any relevant up to date text book on Group Accounts. I'd advice you get notes from tutorial centres and use it for your FA because no single text book comprises all the topics in FA. Less I forget, u also need IFRS materials.
Hope this helps.

ICAN knows that a lot of people are now struggling to be Chatered Accountants. So they are tightening the nuts and the door of entrance to the professional world. God bless Nigeria grin

marvis5077: BCRM was something else. I wrote in benin center. About 80% fresh questions and 20% indirect questions. And when I say fresh questions- I mean as fresh as tomatoes. I know God will no fail me. PE 1 loading wink wink by his Grace I have conquered it.

sniperwolf: The BCRM was something else. I was skeptical about that Chi-Square question, I couldn't wahala fathom which data was the observed and expected.

ICAN should just make it clear that they DON'T set questions according to their syllabus
i thought i was the only one that almost cried when i saw the chi-square. this is a topic that i could solve questions on off-hand even in the dream.i believed chi-square will never be a problem but i got the shock of my life in the exam hall. God bless Nigeria grin

where do you find the time to combine all these materials i think the best thing you undoubtedly need to prepare for an ican exam is the study pack and pathfinder especially the pathfinders, then if you have the time which i think most people dont have you can add all the extra stuff you want to add

If u use ICAN pack to prepare for FA PE1 u go fail ooo. Nigeria no longer uses SAS for preparing FR and that's what u will get from ICAN pack. I agree with u that ICAN pack will be good for AAA and IT but not on MA and FA. U will need to solve as many questions as possible on both papers and ICAN packs won't suffice for them.

I agree with you on FA, MA and IT...but I assure you that only ICAN pack is not enough for AA...
For instance, this just concluded diet, if one have read only ICAN pack, that one na 1 chance oooo (as only few questions came out 4rm the pack)....
U still need other material 4 AA apart 4rm ICAN pack.

Maybe u are right cos I haven't seen this diet's AAA, but what other textbook can one use? Tried Millichamp but the book was just there. Thank God I passed it in May.
