Ang Guo Weng is a current ACCA and former CAT student at MCKL. Emerging Top in the World not once, but twice for his CAT examinations, he shares with us his experience. <\/em><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What made you choose the accounting field?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I have a dream to start my own business in the future. To make my business a successful one, I must equip myself with the knowledge of accounting, law, tax, audit, and many more. ACCA is a course that integrates most of the learning aspects that I wanted, and I find it most suitable for me.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is your advice to students wanting to do accounting?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Pursue it. There will always be a demand for accountants in business, government, non-profits, and any other endeavour involving money. Accountancy can lead to senior management positions, including CEO.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is your secret to becoming one of MCKL's top CAT student? <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Consistency is key. Work hard.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How did you feel when you heard you received Top in the World the first time (FA2 paper)?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The moment I ended my Computer Based Exam, I was shocked that the results popped out was 100%. I was stunned.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What about the second time?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Well, when I got my result transcript, I only got 87 marks for my FTX, I did not expect much because based on past records, world prize winners generally score above 90 marks. But three weeks after the results came out, I received an email from ACCA stating that I got world prize for FTX. I was thrilled.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Why did you choose MCKL?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Before I handed in my admission form to MCKL, I visited many other colleges. I admitted that other colleges might have better facilities and all. Still, I felt something different about MCKL, the way they run the college was not so commercialized, but instead, they often put the students' benefit as their main priority.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What were some of the ways MCKL nurtured you? <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

MCKL nurtured me in a sense that whenever I need guidance about my studies or my future, most lecturers are there and willing to share with me about their experience and advice.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are some of the memorable moments for you at MCKL?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The most memorable moments are the events, trips and camps I attended, such as Orientation Camp, Trip to Pulau Pangkor and CAT-ACCA Annual dinner.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In what ways did your parents play a part in your education journey? <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My parents played a big part in my education journey by supporting me all the way and assuring my decision and also paid for my tuition and exam fees.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are your plans after ACCA?<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My plans after ACCA is to work as an Audit Associate in one of the Big 4 Accounting Firms for at least three years. After that, I would further my studies or work in a corporate firm.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
