Hi<BR><BR>Don't know how FTC is with AAT, but I am currently on my final stage of ACCA with FTC - Soton, and they have proven to be very good, but that is day release and not distant learning.<BR><BR>My advise would be to bug the lecturer with any queries that you have - don't be afraid to ask for support. I know the lecturers are 100% supportive towards ACCA students, and there's no reason why they shouldn't be the same with AAT students either.<BR><BR>I take my hat off to you for having the motivation to study (distant learning)<BR><BR>Good luck<BR><BR>B<BR><BR><BR>

Heya,<BR>Ive not long since started the Foundation course either, but i have worked in accounts for about two years so i av a fair idea of what im talkin about... The only thing i can advise from my own experience is to, if your not already, try and look for a job workin an some sort of accounts team. It is really helpful, it put all the theory and writing into practice and makes it much more easier to understand. I dont think i could av enrolled onto the course otherwise cos it all sounds so foreign!<BR>Good Luck with it tho!<BR>Tracey x.<BR>

Am now battling way through Receipt/payments etc. Trying to get head round VAT and remembering which side of the 't' accounts it goes, tips please.<BR><BR>Cheers Georgie
