    if you studying full time, kaya ang 3 subject per term... if you are working simultaneously baka mahirap.

    think of it this way - 1000 pages ang libro on the average per subject.

    @batman hindi naman pre-requisite na mag start sa ethics. We can start any except sa Global Strategy which I believe is the last subject to be taken.

    Hi sis ang waived na fee is for the assessment fee lang which is AUD 145. Yun Associate membership fee need pa bayaran para ma-activate yun membership which is AUD 145 for half year or AUD 290 for full year. After ma-activate yun membership start na yun ng date to complete yun CPA Program (at least AUD 1k per subject) within 6 years from date of membership.

    @jencandysweet yun lang naman ang suggested nila pero up to you kung gusto mo itake yung ibang core or yung elective. Ako hindi Ethics ang una kong kinuha. Kinuha ko ung module na sinasabi nilang mataas ang percentage ng bumabagsak which is Financial Reporting. So depende sayo kung ano ang gusto mong unahin :)

    I will be starting with the CPA program as well. Will be enrolling today, Ethics muna :D

    @vamdcpa sagot ni employer mo ang CPA exams mo or personal? may mga employer kasi na sinasagot ang CPA exams kaya yung may mga visa na try nyo muna hanap work baka I cover ni employer ang exams nyo.

    @jencandysweet oo ang pricey niya everyyear nagtataas sila ng price! Naabutan ko pa yan na 900 something lang eh tsktsk.. Oh well..
    Natapos ko na yung FR natake ko pa yun na paper based dati. Ang difference niya sa CPA board exam satin eh open books siya AND meron siyang essay so paramg final exams sa uni hehe. Sa pagkakatanda ko yung mga electives lang yung purely multiple choice yung mga core meron talagang essay.
    Natake ko na din ang tax super haba! 2 books ang ipapadala sayo kapag yun ang kinuha mo. Pinagsisihan ko siya kase may choice ako not to take it pero nagmaganda ako at kinuha ko siya wahahah kase pwede mo naman pagaralan yung tax ng australia na di ka mageexam :)

    @jencandysweet I forgot to mention na yung study guide na pinapadala nila meron yun parang mini calendar sa back cover gamitin mo siya kase dun mo magagauge kung tama ang pacing mo sa pagaral nung mga modules. Naalala ko it helped me alot kase naiiwasan ang pagcram sa pagaral so yun. Para ka na din may mini countdown sa week ng exams hehe
