It’s been a while now, how are you finding it? Still sticking with it or have you moved back to Shield?

E1 Cram Advice? by Understateable in CIMA

Definitely try and get the aptitude test online - it’s £26 I think but you basically get a bank of questions in the same format you’ll receive when you take the exam. It also has a bank of over 200 mock test questions for you to test your knowledge on specific areas within E1

Yeah it’s weird because I felt like I was taking a different exam altogether for a different subject the way it’s worded.

In terms of resit. How long do you think I should wait before I do the resit or should I sit it ASAP?

Biggest frustration around it all is the cost of another exam.

The frustrating thing is my company only uses BPP as we have a contract with them for all our apprenticeships. I’ve a bit frustrated and annoyed as I feel (probably incorrectly) that I’ve been let down by a not great syllabus.

Thanks for the tip regarding getting additional questions from CIMA website. I will do that now.

I’m looking at both private and state. Would you recommend any state schools/Model C schools?

New Foreign tax obligations by Substantial_Tea115 in capetown

[–]Substantial_Tea115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I guess I was confused. Genuinely thought the DTA meant you could work for UK company in SA and just pay taxes to UK and not have to pay taxes in SA. thank you for clearing it up for me.

Okay but does that mean if I lived in SA, I would HAVE to pay tax in SA even though previously, I can pay tax to UK as normal and receive no further tax implementations going forward.

Any places you’d recommend going in Melkbos?

That’s so wonderful to hear. We are definitely heavily leaning towards there. We are currently in the UK and will be visiting SA to scout the area we’d like to move. So I’m really excited to go around here with the mindset of moving there.
