    How have you found the CTA exams, I am currently doing ATT (I am AAT and ACCA qualified) then want to move to CTA.

    The pass rates are very low, I would like to do an online course for conveniance but only kaplan offer this for all subjects but Tolley's are known to be the best teachers as far as I am aware?

    How have you studied?

    Thanks

    i'm aat and acca as well, didnt do att though.

    They are hard exams but they are not impossible. I did the two advisory papers in november and passed them both first time. I studied with Kaplan (attended classes, not online) and to be honest I didnt find them as good as I did when I did my acca with them, just things like answers to the questions they set in tuition being wrong and we didnt receive the notes we needed for the revision course before revision!

    Did you get any study leave from your employer as I have to do all my tuition in my own time? I imagine two in one sitting is tough.

    Online is supposed to be the same as the classroom or as close as possible with kaplan. Tolley's academy and forum etc look really good though.
