As an experienced person, I still have something to say. The difficulty of acca is gradually rising, and the more difficult it is, especially in the P stage, the difficulty is equivalent. Reasons for the difficulty: 1, China candidates are used to the thinking system of China textbooks starting with accounting entries, and usually pay attention to details, but they lack a thinking habit of looking at problems from the perspective of company strategy. And the textbooks compiled by China are similar. If you look through the annotated accounting books, intermediate accounting books and accounting standards of the Ministry of Finance, you will find that the narrative modes of these books are all exactly the same, they are partial to details, do not pay attention to the whole, and stand at a low height, which is related to the accounting training orientation of our country. 2, most candidates lack practical experience, which may be no problem in the F stage, but it is very troublesome in the P stage. Many people around me are stuck in the last few doors of the P stage and are very anxious. 3. The requirements for English in the P stage are much higher than those in the F stage, and the text of the textbook is also obscure whether writing or reading. So the requirements for English are very high. To tell the truth, some subjects in P stage in recent years are really abnormal, and normal people can't pass. Now the P stage is very unfavorable to domestic candidates. We are used to doing problems by rote. After all, English is not our mother tongue. If there are a lot of things we haven't seen in the examination room, China candidates are basically dead, so I think China candidates have an advantage in the F stage and a disadvantage in the P stage.

Generally speaking, acca is more difficult than cpa. Cpa, listen to the courseware and do the exercises. It's basically no problem. Many people around me have passed cpa, many have passed many doors, but acca pass is rare.

The salary should match your ability. Statistically speaking, acca's salary should be much higher than cpa's, but that can only show that acca and these people's abilities are matched, and there will be no people who only have poor practical ability. So when you study acca, you must pay attention to your practical ability. Don't just do the questions and forget them after the exam, as many examiners of certified public accountants do now. It's useless. It may be because there are too many people taking the exam and the overall quality of the candidates is not high. At this stage, I suggest you take cpa exam and master some basic details. Acca is promoted on the basis of cpa and can be used as your excellent capital. I hope it works for you!
