need help with SAT registration

defectivelasagna — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 16:49:34 +0800

hey guys im trying to register for the SATs on collegeboard.com but im worried about what to write for my name entry, it has first name, middle name initial(one letter) and last name. The problem is my name is long as i have a muslim name "muhammad xxxxx bin mohd xxxxx" as example, it's kinda confusing as to what is my first and last name exactly and the space restriction as well.

Is an accounting degree from the US recognized?

defectivelasagna — Sun, 26 Dec 2010 18:38:12 +0800

i plan to do finance & accounting in the U.S but i've never heard of an accounting graduate from the US before, mainly UK and Aus. Is it that the US accounting standards does not match the ones in commonwealth countries? Could you still become an accountant if you were to graduate from a US university? Also, how different is accounting in the US compared to UK?

thanks

coping with A levels math without add math in SPM

defectivelasagna — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 12:11:56 +0800

hey guys im planning to do A levels however i did not take add math for SPM so i would obviously be at a disadvantage if i were to take A levels math.

But my question is that would they be teaching from scratch? or would the syllabus be assuming the students would've known some add math stuff already? Have you guys seen an arts student excelling at A levels math before?

thanks
