Lol…

Serious advice please..
I am lost and broke.

I have been failing SG CA professional exams. Tried FR twice & Assurance once.
I am a non accounting graduate who have completed SG CA foundation exams.

I am wondering, are these failures due to a knowledge gap from my background or perhaps my own competency level.

I am contemplating to either (1) take up masters in accounting to fill up this knowledge gap and reattempt (nowadays there are more exemptions granted?), (2) take up other professional qualifications i.e cpa aus to close off this chapter of my life, (3) change of work if perhaps not suited for accountancy line.(Without CA, progression likely cap off at Senior Manager..)

SCA exams are so easy I end them 1 hour earlier and study maybe max 3 days for it. Maybe you need more formal teaching to grasp the basics. Or just go back to doing things related to your original degree. Why waste time in accounting?

No bonus?

Sure bo…

Like that even half month bonus also win you already

Yes, I am an A1 who joined pwc last year. There was what I call a "pity" bonus of $1000 given to A1s who joined in 2021 but it is not guaranteed this year. Could have been to compensate for the higher starting pay of incoming graduates of 2022.
