@Woot.. Yeah you can find a few on torrents but imo there is nothing like reading from the hard copy unless you own a Kindle!
Thankyou, that makes things alot clearer.Well first off, It would be a great addition to your CV if you go abroad and do bachelors from abroad. It will set you apart from the thousands of accas in the market these days so i would say if you have the money and the time, Go for it. If you can get 6 papers exempted thats great too then you'll only have to give the remaining 8 papers which if you are very good in studies, You should pass them in 1-1.5 years
Now on to your questions:
1) Should I opt for a Bachelors and then an ACCA after claiming exemptions, or go straight on with ACCA after A levels. Assuming the Bachelors is from a good foreign uni.
Go for bachelors in my opinion.. No one will be able to guide you properly in this regard, but just have a look in industry.. People who have bachelors from foreign countries are in good demand.
2) Does it affect my job prospects if I do ACCA direct and have no formal education?
Well it does a little bit. Having a proper bachelors degree does make a difference.
3) Suppose I do my ACCA directly, and move on with CFA or ICAEW or IF I want to do a good masters, will there be any problems.
^All of the above questions are regarding the benefit or LACK off due to having/not having a Bachelors. Thats where I am confused.
Well that is also a good route you can take.. You can do ACCA plus CFA or ICAEW and go for MBA later on. I plan on that as well. There shouldnt be any problems since you can get a bachelors degree from Oxford Brookes from ACCA after you pass papers till F9 so you can join Masters based on that degree plus most universities do recognize ACCA/CFA/ICAEW and there shouldnt be any problems if you pursue masters later on.
4) ACCA salaries abroad, are they good? I would be considering Riyadh/Jeddah since I live in Saudi already and even the UAE.
They're pretty decent. I've heard figures ranging from 5-10 thousand riyals for fresh qualified ACCA, Whereas for an ACCA Member (with 3 years experience) somewhere in the range of 10-17 thousand Riyals
5) If I'm sticking to the accountancy field, if I straight on go with ACCA > CFA (I really wanna do CFA) is that a bad choice? (DO I need a bachelors?)
CFA requires bachelors.. but it considers ACCA equivalent to bachelors plus since you already get a bachelors degree along with ACCA you dont need to worry about it.

Any guidelines for CISA.?!
I'm ACCA finalist. Looking at the future of an ACCA qualified, thinking to move to CISA. :S
I am fresh student of ACCA .. currently doing FIA from al-hamd academy ..:P
And by that you mean?

well am also going to shift in acca from ca.
these are my plans:
ill start with HND (higher national diploma) in accountancy which is awarded by edexel ( a prestigious educational body in uk).
after completing HND ill move to dubai.
i have a strong expectation that , ill get a good or average job paying atleast 4000dhs on the basis of HND ( since HND is equal to 2 years of bachelor hons degree of uk and also HEC recognizesHND as btech in accounting)
( correct me if my expectations are really near to reality or not )
after completing hnd ill be having two options
1) either to continue ACCA FROM F7 ( EXEMPTIONS OF 6 PAPERS IN ACCA AFTER HND)
2) GIVE TWO MORE PAPERS AFTER HND AND GET HDA ( HIGHER DIPLOMA IN ACCOUNTANCY)
NOW AFTER HAVING HDA I CAN CLAIM EXEMPTIONS OF 8 PAPERS IN ICAEW.( TOTAL PAPERS ARE 14)
SINCE ICAEW IS CONDUCTING ITS PAPERS IN DUBAI ,,, SO GOING WITH ICAEW SEEMS ME MORE ATTRACTIVE PLUS IT WILL BE AFFORDABLE FOR ME BECAUSE ILL ALREADY BE EMPLOYED ON THE BASIS OF HND..
GUYS THIS IS ONLY my predicted path, i need lot of attentions and advices from you guys ,,,, so that i can opt this path, u can also pm me
big day tomorrow plz pray "allah mjhy paper main pass karwa dy ameen summa ameen !!!"
