  u have to find out who is the lecturer for the course u r taking b4 deciding on the institute u be enrolled.
  ftc overall are pretty ok but they r weak in tax, law n audit course.
  well at least that is my opinion.

  other institutes should also offer this course but i don't think it is worth it.
  the exam is damn tough, normal passing rate is around 30%
  the course fees are exp
  unless yr employer is sponsoring u, i don't it is worth the dime

  Hmm.. So an Accounting Degree is now useless coz everyone can take ACCA and end up the same.
  
  Think I go take Biz then night class ACCA. Can tackle both at once and end up having like double degree...Lol
  
  Maybe no more accounting degree soon..haha.
