What's the difference between old n new syllabus?
1. Personal opinion is that new syllabus is much easier to grasp but school teachers are having difficulty trying cope with teaching new and old syllabus at the same time (sec 4 n 5 still at old syllabus)
2. New syllabus is all about columnar format no more teaching of t a/cs even though format is still accepted by Cambridge
3. There are currently no assessment books in the market for new syllabus. I am currently working with publisher to come up with one
4. Foundation is key. If ur child is already grasping the double entry well in school, I don't think there is a need for tuition. However, if he/she is losing interest in POA due to double entry concepts. This raises concern as they will be very lost all the way till secondary 4.
Two cents worth. Thanks
1. Memorise and understand the qualitative concepts, e.g. difference between bookkeeping and accounting, etc. This should secure 20% of the marks.kitty2 wrote:Anyone can share how to do well in POA?My friend's son who is taking N level this year is still quite lost

2. Be very familiar with A=L+OE and double entries.
3. Take special effort to understand accrual accounting as a lot of the syllabus (e.g. adjustments, non-current assets, etc.) revolve around this concept.
4. Get help if needed. It's good to have someone explain these concepts.
