Thanx again. How many exams do you have to sit for this level and how many skills tests are there

I'm afraid I don't know that one! I assume there's a skills test for each unit and then exams for a lot of them on top of that. If anyone can clarify that would be great

Don't have details of all sections, but this is what we have been told: Personal Tax - exam based Business Tax - exam based Auditing - Skills Test only Costings - two exams. We are doing one in December and one in June We are also doing cash management, but can't remember if it is skills based or exam based I think the finance papers are exam based. Would also appreciate further clarification. Of course, as I type this I am touching wood, because I won't be doing any of it unless I pass intermediate!

Hi No, as mentioned by tango PEV, PCR, DFS & MAS project are compulsory, but you can choose any two between PTC, BTC, IAP and CMCC. Some institutes in UK choosing either PTC & BTC or IAP & CMCC. In my country "Bahrain" we are taking IAP & CMCC. Good luck
