Hello! I find the video helpful and informative at this moment. I am currently studying, and in a few months, I will be completing my bachelor degree. My university collaborates with the ACCA group. I don't need to pay for it; I have been working for more than 3 years, and my employer pays for both my ACCA studies and me. Do you think that my strong interest in accounting is enough to start? (btw I want to start for the same reasons as you!)

Now im doing FA and its so damn hard. I feel like this is not for me. I take a lottt of time to study simple stuffs in acca. I always feel like i should quit but the value and potential this course offers is holding me back from quitting. I always wanted to travel the world, and i love the fact how acca is super flexible. But its soo damnn hard. Im wasting a lott of time in these knowledge level papers that my friends passed within just a few months. Im like completely lost. Idk what to do

hey there :), I felt exactly the same in my second and third years of studying. It was super tough like you mentioned and there were times when I just wanted to give up. A thought that helped me a lot was: If other people can do it (my immediate circle of friends and other people I knew) then I can as well. The only way to get good at this is by doing a lot of practice questions, so perhaps try that. But otherwise, I'll always be here cheering you on.

So, I have to decide what degree to choose. I don't want to choose accounting because I will be doing it in the ACCA. Now, I can either do Finance or Business administration or Economics. Please tell me what you think and you can mention a degree that is not mentioned above.(my circumstances make it a must that I should study in an Uni so please dont advice against doing so)

I don’t like having the mindset of “it’s going to be hard”, more like “it’s going to be challenging and worth it”. I am just about to finish my master degree in business administration, finished my bachelor in business as well and did 2 internships at EY (audit company). It was challenging, but that what kept me motivated. Now my goal is to become a consultant and open my consultancy business and my obvious path that I see now is the ACCA qualification. What are your thoughts?

Hi:) I have studied degree in accounting and I am thinking to start ACCA as my University offers exemptions for 9 papers. But I wonder if it is enough to do part time study about 3hrs a day since I’m thinking to start full time job in different industry, which is not related with accounting. The more I research abt Acca I’ve got close to realism. I’m very hesitating cos to get ACCA qualification, it requires much of money and I am not sure if I could balance the time to work and study at the sametime😅 I need your honest advice. Is my plan reasonable?

Hey there :) Strangely enough, I think we are very similar and have a lot in common. I am also working full time and is not directly aligned with accounting so per se.

So, that being said - you can do anything you set your mind to and you will for sure be able to pass, you will just have to sacrifice other things in your life!

HI Conrad, I've recently come across your content and I'm considering pursuing this accreditation. Question, did you first complete a degree in alignment with the qualification and if so were there any exemptions? follow up being, is there a way to gain acca accreditation without studying at a tertiary learning institution (ie. can you become a ca without a degree)?

Also, what's the worst-case scenario? You can just switch to something else and treat it as an experiment for the time being.

Practice as much as you can. Memorise the different definitions and accounting standards. But ultimately above all, practice as much as you can.
My local Chartered Accountancy course forces me to give either 4 or 8 exams together and the exams only happen once every 6 months. This has me stuck cuz I gotta clear them together (like 2 groups of 4 papers, so 4 papers together) and if I don't clear them all, I fail everything and have to give them again. I'm thinking of moving to ACCA since it'll let me give one exam at a time. Like in my last attempt I cleared 5 out of 8 papers but it doesn't matter since I didn't pass them all. Another reason I wanna move to ACCA is same as you, international opportunities. I don't wanna be stuck in one place forever.

AI will play a heavy role in processing transactions in the short to medium term . Yes it is a tool, but a very capable and a powerful tool. Most of the routine work , AI will do faster and accurately. It is like robots that were first introduced in early 1950 in Germany. But how many countries other than the developed WEST ever make use of robots ? not very many , today . 2023. If you want to be an expert Book-keeper with ACCA, you will be heading for extinction, like the type-writers or Yellow pages of the old age, now almost extinct. Do not ever underestimate the power of machine learning that is embedded in AI. It has taken over the JOB of routine works of many in the medical field, so what makes the field of Accountancy immune from take over ? NONE !

If i get ACCA in Asian country then can i find a job in UK or USA ?I mean ACCA can get me a work visa, is there anything that would differentiate me from other people in this area that the UK would want me for?

I think if you try and get a job for the big 4 in Asia, then they could perhaps transfer you to their UK branches... I think something that can differentiate you is being super good at what you do 🤓

I'm definitely going to make a video about this topic because I genuinely believe in 80/20 ' ing everything. So, I try and spend the minimum time on my studying. Usually just an hour a day. Hope this helps.

Hey there ☺️ on instagram - conrad.brink
Hey Conrad, insightful video. I know a lot of companies seek CA-route graduates more. What advice would you give non-CA accounting graduates who need experience when SAICA is currently king and ACCA is rarely recognised? (I’m a first year so I’m just trying to have a solid plan first 🫣)

Apply for exemptions for sure! Remember if they give you an exemption at ACCA, they are basically saying “yep, you already know this” so just give yourself more credit :)
