ummh...studied economics myself...d exemptions seemed like a waste of money dats why i opted out..my search continues though

Kossyne:

That's very thoughtful of you, just like the proverbial "killing two birds with a stone". Consolildation is always a big challenge for candidates and it appears more technical than the Acct Ratios which is more of cramming formulae and churning out calculatings, though the analysis part can be quite tricky but certainly not on par with the technicality of consolidation.

For the standards, scenario questions(which doesn't involve Prep of Fin Statements) which involves two or more standards can be asked. Its all good sha. God strong pass them!!

and don't forget that there is no financial ratio without current ratio, quick-ratio and inventory ratio. also, don't you ever neglect cash budget (MA). Statament of cash flow (IFRS 7)

fweshmind:

yea 17k

Kossyne:


Well Scenario based questions requires one to apply the knowledge of two or more standards to provide solution to a problem. It tests the extent to which one can employ the requirements of relevent standards to solve Accounting problems.it may require you to perform little computations and entries before making your comments. You may or may not be told the applicable standard. Get the F7 revision kit for more info.

Ok, thanks. Then wat will be the definition for discussive papers like MGE cos it seems we would be asked more of sceneriao questns in that course and we would be requires to assume the position of a Director of a quoted comany. BTW wat are u using to read Strategic Mgmt? That aspect of MGE seems Extremely boring to me mehn...
The acctng standards in FR are jes too much oh, i hope one wnt forget them in exam hall wen tension has risen to the peak. And the course itsef (FR) is consuming lots of time too. I hope evryone has prepared a well structured time table for reading so u wont neglect the so-called 'smaller courses' in the bid of preparing for the Bigfish. Is it the old PSAF txtbook you ar using to read PSAF? That course ehn... I jes wan start am oh! Goddey sha.

Wen lecturers board u with materials..pls learn to do sieving cos nt everytn is relevant. Most lecturers like shown skills forgetting dt there is no tym..and drs no so much to read. if I was lecturer in one d tuition houses I will b straight n direct and look for basic stuffs required alone

Emeka71: and don't forget that there is no financial ratio without current ratio, quick-ratio and inventory ratio. also, don't you ever neglect cash budget (MA). Statament of cash flow (IFRS 7)

Emeka, there's no cash budget in the new syllabus.Pls be guided. Ratios will always be the choice of candidates in exams and examiners know this so more marks will "likely" be alloted to comments on the ratios rather than the calculations. Numbers are meaningless if they can't be used for analysis.

Whizzy, I don't know what you mean by "definition" of MGE. Anyway, judging from the syllabus, MGE questions will be Scenario based to a large extent and as you know, there are many correct answers to those questions, answers will be based purely on judgement but that doesn't mean that there are no wrong answers.

For the strategic management, to be honest with you, I am yet to see it anywhere, though I haven't bothered to look, still reading the ones in the BPP pack. I will be glad if you tell me the text you are using for it.

Yes, the standards are just too much, but I believe that just reading the standards for reading sake is not enough. Constant practice is needed for retention.

There are no big fish or small fish as far as this exam is concerned, just that some courses require more time than others. Proper allocation of time and resources is of utmost importance.

I am using R.A Adams for PSAF. It roughly covers 50% of the syllabus. Still looking for a better material though.

My biggest mistake is waiting for ICAN packs, I should have started reading earlier.

Issokay. No material yet persay for strategic mgmt that have seen so far. But am using my tutorial note and one 'prepared' pack by the tutorial centre for that aspect of the course.
I have that R.A Adams text book but its the former PSAF study pack am using. Wich one do u think is better or preferable.
We must pass this diet atall costs o... Did i hear sumone say 57days to go.

Are u serious abt this? No cash budget again in P.M? This people for tutorial just they waste pesin time ooh! Chai
Exactly knowing the calculations alone for Ratios can give jes about 10-20% of the marks alloted. Its the analysis, interpretation and the kind of advice u will give to the organizations in the situation that will fetch more marks. And besides this interpretion in P.M and F.R will b completely different from eachother.

If you don't have a copy of the syllabus, I will advise you to get one. Don't let anybody deceive you. The part of Budgetary Control sys covered by the PM syllabus are the alternative approaches to Budgeting/Budgeting Techiques. They include Incremental budgeting,ZBB,Activity Based and Rolling Budgets.Activity Based is the only one that has calculations in it.

I don't wanna be bothered about that Strategic mgt, I want to focus on the things I can do with the resources within my reach. If ICAN eventually releases their pack,then I might read it, if not, then that one na story for the gods.

By former PSAF, I don't know if you mean the soft copy or the hard one, though as far as I am concerned both are still the current pack since we are yet to see the new one. I ve gone through the three and I ll say despite the inadequacies of R. A Adams, I wil choose it over the hard copy. The soft copy on the other hand covered certain areas like Government contract/Capital Investment appraisal using CBA and CEA, Uses of Annual budget, budget cycle,Loss of Public Sector fund, Role of Public Sector in the Economy etc not covered by R.A Adams.

I printed the past questions on PSAF from May 2011 diet to May 2014 diet. Some of the question are contained in the syllabus but not covered by either of these books.


Please stop counting it, make person no get cardiac arrest o. God dey sha!

Well, good for you, seems you ve got it all covered. Its good to keep reminding ourselves how close the exam is. Hmmn!. At least there's a good side to the syllabus, its more of a study guide. Its specific in the competencies you are expected to exhibit and the knowledge to apply using question verbs like. Calculate, advise, Explain, identify,present etc. It helps me focus my reading on purely what we ll be tested on.

How far have you gone with PM, If ICAN decides to raise the standard of their question to be @ par with ACCA's, then I feel sorry for those who depend entirely on Adeniji.

Yeah... The syllabus has its own good sides to. But i jes hope dey dnt deviate from wat was expressly stated in the syllabus cos dat will be a distaster.
Mehn. I pray dey dnt make it ACCA standard oh because their questns is nt just technical its also time consuming and requires lotta tinking. The Adeniyi text is not good enough wen it comes to technicality. PM is a course dat shouldnt b taken as a joke atall its so bulky too. I av nt really covered much on it for nw cos am still attending tutorial class n my class is full tym so there is less time for personal preparation. Bt am gonna stop by month end rergardless of hw far we av gone in tutorial.

Wow, full time tutorial. That must have cost a lot of money. Well anything that will ensure that one passes this exam is worth it. Mehn!..MGE can be so boring to read. I am using BBP study text but it didn't cover strategic management and that's my major area of concern. I don't know the text to use for it, Can you suggest one for me?
