fellow AAT'ers and technicians which level do you think is the hardest ??<BR> <BR>eg i found foundation quite difficult because not only was i doing it fast track but i had to do health and safety computers etc which i found difficult and a waste of time i would have rather done some kind of math or economics !!.<BR> <BR>where as im finding the intermediate quite good as its relevant to today and i can apply it aswell !! so it isnt that bad<BR> <BR>technician well hopefully next year.<BR> <BR>so i just wondering what level you found most difficult and why<BR> <BR>thanks.

    Technician, purely because I was doing more exams together and the units are bigger than they are at Intermediate. <BR><BR>Probably the way it should be!

    It all depends on the units that you choose for tech level - costing is building on intermediate. Tax is totally new, but a certain amount of overlap between business and personal tax. I didnt do it, but people on this forum say cash and credit management is a cinch. Lots of learning for DFS and i know nothing about the audit paper. I think a lot depends on what you are interested in - personally it makes it easier to learn, also if you are practising it for real.

    I am finding the Technician stage the most difficult as there is so much to fit in in such a short space of time with having to work on the project as well as the exams. However, I am enjoying the actual material in technician more as it seems more interesting. Although I have to be honest, none of what I'm doing relates to my full time job!!!

    <BR>There is the guide that Foundation level is GCSE standard, Intermediate is 'A'-level standard and that Technician is degree standard. (This is incorporated by each level being registared as NVQ 2, 3 and 4).<BR>With this is mind I've found each level has far more material and more increasingly difficult at each level as it should.<BR>The one positive aspect is that in Technician you have far more module choices which help gear the qualification toward what you are interested in and/or find easier.
