Hey guys, in today’s video I’ll be sharing how I became a Chartered Accountant. If there are any specific questions or topics you'd like me to cover, then drop a comment/video suggestion below. See you next week 🤍
why didn't you say which professional options you choose and why?
Don't get me wrong ,ACCA is a good competitive accounting qualification but it is really not a chartered qualification, I know you will disagree !
Is it that u do acca and u can do accounting ?
@@gauthapandithwhat do u mean ?
Really great video for someone considering accounting and the ACCA. Thanks for sharing and congrats on your career 🎉
Thank you for this. I'm starting ACA soon but this was insightful!
Very insightful. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Perfect video, deciding when to start my first exam...
Well done. Great achievements. 🎉🎉
Congratulations this is so motivating and inspiring.... i am currently doing ACCA and I really need more help and motivation on how i can go about with my ACCA journey because it doesn't seem easy as i thought...
Thanks Abbie, very detailed , informative & insightful video !!
Thankyou Suresh, I'm glad it was helpful!
Congratulations. I will be taking up acca soon. Deep and insightful
Thankyou! 🥰
Thank you sm!!!!
Love the vid!
Thankyou Rho! 💕
Hi, thanks for the video. I am really grateful for coming across this video. I'm going to study for this course in July
Thankyou, I'm glad it was helpful. Best of luck with the course!
Thank you for the video. I will be starting my ACCA Journey soon. I postponed it for 15 years but it is obvious i would have done much better if i had done the ACCA when I first thought of it in 2008.
How’s it goin?
I believe I'm older than you by a lot! But I wish I was as responsible and driven as you were you're age. Excellent video appreciate your humility and advice. I got 3 left to do. May leave questions about career progression soon on other vids of yours.
Thanks for sharing your journey to ACCA. Quite Motivating. I'm currently contemplating on whether to go in for ACCA or CIMA and that's cuz I am looking for the shorter of the two lol
If you are looking for short-cuts, better do nothing, problem SOLVED !
After listening to your video , l hsve decided to write it 😊
Love from India❤😊
Thank you for this great video. I would like to know more on the exam structure part. Let's say a person is doing 4 modules per year on the pro level. Does it mean they are going to write 1 exam of any of the 4 modules in every quarter of the year then finish or it's exams every quarter on all modules until the last exams at year end? I hope you understand my question.
And also what is the pass mark for professional level(mark needed to pass)? The average and the pass mark of each module.
How did u manage your company to finance for your acca ? Any tips on how/what should i do once I finish my accounting and finance degree . Thanks a ton .
i'm 16 and thanks this video has been the one i'm looking for. could you tell me what you would do if you went back and was 16 again. i'm just looking for early pointers before going down this path
Hi Abbie, great video I really enjoyed it. It's great to see a black UK person's experience of ACCA on RUclips as there is hardly any content on the web. Do you mind making a video on how your experience went at the strategic level. Any tips or advice on your last 4 exams.
Thankyou so much! Honestly that's one of the reasons I filmed this as I rarely saw any content from people like me when I needed it. Yeah I was thinking to film another video on how I studied, but specifically for the strategic level. Now I know someone would actually want to watch it, I'll definitely make a video on that soon
@@AbbieAppiah Thanks Abbie, wishing you more and more success!
Thankyou, wishing the same for you too!
Thanks for your video, may i ask one question of where i can find the ACCA course? Is it any institutions?
Would you recommend acowtancy as the main resource for skill level papers? Their paid version?
You interlock and twiddle your fingers a bit, just found it amusing as I always do it 😂
Please can I start the ACCA right after shs without going to the university
I wish you had shared the modules you failed and the strategies you took to pass them.
I would like to go for Dilopma in IFRS. How can I start
I just registered for ACCA this month and i got 8 exemptions . So on experience can you tell me how do that work
HLO ABBIE , I AM IN 12TH STANDARD RIGHT NOW AND I WANT TO PERSUE ACCA , PLZ TELL ME SOME DO'S AND DONT'S .
hi Abbie from your name it seem that you're a Ghanaian, that is just by the way, i will really a guide in my ACCA career as that getting into, i did accounting and finance in the university graduate with HND certificate. now i want to start learning ACCA courses while i wait for money to start the main thing can you help me with what to start learning as at now. thank you
Hi, I need to start studying ACCA
How much it's cost to study ACCA in uk and after ACCA how to join MBA???
Possible to get course lecture videos if u have ?
Which company did you do you training in😊
do you get paid during the year in industry in uni?
I really need an online study patner for f5 and f9 papers.... anyone?
Does your practical work experience have to be in an accounting related role or can it be in a different field entirely?
Is there a way I can get in touch with you please
Thanks for this video. It's motivating.
I actually registered with ACCA also because I studied Management and Accounting but the journey has been hectic as I've failed twice and I was out of job a couple of times and it demoralised me. I intend to write this September, God's willing and I want to start preparing from now. So help me God.
I hope to write taxation and I pray I get money before then to put in for the exam.
Thank you.
If you continue to fail and procrastinate your studies , make sure you do not HOP jobs, the older you get , you will face fierce age-discrimination in your future JOB hunt.
Did you get to do the Tax paper
The problem with ACCA (and even CIMA) is that neither ACCA nor CIMA supervises the training agreements. So, it is essentially the training / experience profile what makes you stand out not the qualification paper. This is a definite disadvantage with ACCA/CIMA.
Hi
So which body do you suggest?
so do you suggest the aat
Beautiful and smart
Thankyou so much 💕
Would you share your linkedin
Hi, I would like to start my ACCA journey but I don't know where to start as I don't have experience in the field and I have a degree in a different field. Do you think it's doable for someone who is starting from scratch?
Hi, yes its definitely doable! Even without a related degree or experience you can still complete the ACCA. You won't get exemptions from exams, so you will have to sit all 13, but the ACCA will teach you from scratch everything you need to know. I'd suggest starting the ACCA/a professional qualification before applying for jobs so employers know you're serious & it'll increase your chances of being hired for a role. I will eventually do a video on this aswell, as I know many chartered accountants who made it without a degree or experience.
Thank you so much at least I know that it’s not only me feeling or felt that pressure I’m current doing my cat and which country would you think is best to work with an acca qualifications
I am starting ACCA is there any study group telegram or WhatsApp i would like to join pliz
How many years does it take to complete the ACCA exams
It depends on how many exam exemptions you have and how many exams you decide to take per exam sitting. But if you have no exemptions and you're only doing one exam per sitting, it'll take you somewhere between 2 to 3 years to complete all 13 exams
life-time. My friend learning is a life-long journey not restricted ACCA. It is just the beginning of a long journey of learning, I know you hate to hear this , but face the reality !
Ma'am is it a good idea to attempt 2 papers in one sitting
So I tried it but I wouldn't recommend because I wasn't able to pass both exams at the same time. But it could work out differently for you
this worked once for me, when I booked and passed both Tax (Tuesday) and FM (Friday) , the first time I attempted to book 2 exams I booked Tax (Tuesday) and PM (Wednesday) and failed both. So IMO it's better if there's a day between the exam days to ease the pressure. All the best !
I
Please send me free books or library link
I want to be like u
Must you go to uni before acca
You don't have to. Both ACCA and CIMA allow students with at least a high school leaving certificate to enter and study. But of course now for ACCA you'll have to do all 13 exams and CIMA complete the certificate level first and the 3 year professional qualification
I would advise going on both websites and reading the course structure. Then once you've made up your mind, search which institution provides it. Kaplan if you're in the UK and there are others across the world in different countries that act as a provider.
If you go to UNI, it will make it easy for you to undergo the ACCA program, as you have done some prior studies. Otherwise, you can still make it , but with an uphill- battle. UNI education always trains your mind and prepares you for further studies, make no mistake on that, it is very valuable.
What uni did you go?
I went to University of Kent
How much you get salary ma'am after complete your acca????
I'll do a video all about salary very soon
Please is ICAEW global
Yes, it's a globally recognised qualification
There is actually nothing called GLOBAL, only debit and credit is GLOBAL ! , Accountancy is a rules-based qualification , rules differ from country to country , so how do we expect any accountancy qualification to be GLOBAL ? So, it is really a misconception to look for a GLOBAL accountancy qualification ( unlike engineering or medicine). Besides you will never apply UK tax that you learn in ICAEW /ACCA, cos you do not have a burial plot in the UK to get buried when you die !
Please can I start the ACCA right after shs without going to the university
