Hi all

I wanted to say a quick hello, salaam, bonjour.

I am from Scotland, UK previously I have studied with Kaplan, but they are expensive so I wanted to know if you can just use these get through guides and really pass exams?

I am a disctance learner but I usually just go to the weekend revision class with Kaplan. Some classes are ok and others a waste of money.

I also wanted to know if other students are like me, I start off enthusiastic and motivated and then I lose sight of my goal for the exam and start panicking and often neglecting my studies, then I have this guilt over me, anyone else feel like that or are you all smart alec swats..... (",)

What do you guys do to keep a happy balance for life, work, studies, family etc etc

Take care
Have a good holiday and fantastic new year!

Welcome to the forum and I hope that you will enjoy yout stay at the forums.

Perhaps my Distance learning experience would give you some idea about motivation level , success and If thats possible.

I am self study student and I have booked Distance learning courses for around 4 papers and so far I was able to manage first time passes. This type of study is not as hard as some students think , only if you genuinely have commitment to complete ACCA then Distance Learning is for you. Every student faces low motivations at time and some times we are out of our plan ( this happened a lot of time with me ) but this is all a apart of learning and studies. So keep this in mind and try not to panic. Distance learning is as good as any other course.

If you need any help regarding Distance Learning then write back !

Best Wishes & Stay in touch.

Hi Rawazana

Get through Guides has the Distance learning classes which are really worthy. The students who had been associated with us for distance learning; they had not only passed but also scored the good marks.

You are most welcome to Get Through Guides – Distance Learning classes.

Regards,

Hi

Many thanks for all for your response, what are the get through guide lectures. Are they online, sorry I know I should really browse your website and find out myself.

I already have my F8 Audit Int books from kaplan, I am thinking of doing a paper through them and maybe 1 through you and see if both approaches work. It'll save me a fortune if I did through the GTG.

Can I ask how it is possible to get through 4 exams per session, well done for doing it, but I have a demanding job, 3yr old son a loving husband who is patient, I am blessed with lots of rof family and friends so how shall I balance all this. I would love to get through as many exams as soon as poss but something will have to be sacrificed? How do i choose what to neglect?

Did you study every from Jan to Jun to pass these exams? Every day?

I can never discipline myself to move on to the next subject. Do you work with your students to devise a realistic timetable?
