is a "financial analyst" similar to a "management accountant"?
I would say so :)
@@CRAIGO10 So, you got qualified as a "management accountant" with CIMA, but got a job as a "Financial Analyst"?
thank for the video.. Could you please advice if you have a good teacher for CIMA?
Astranti is great! 😊
Awesome! 😎 writing SCS in Nov! This really helps, Ive done a full tuition course and a few mocks but I think for the next 5 weeks I am just going to smash as much mocks as possible, is that the right mindset? I am also so keen to just get this over and done with 🤓
Good luck!! Absolutely the right mindset, practice, practice practice! Really focus on planning your answers and converting this into well structured answers & honestly you’ll smash it! 😄 GOOD LUCK!
@@CRAIGO10 great stuff!!😎 thanks for the advise!😁🤞
@@BiancaWinterbach you’ve got this 🙏🏻
Where have you been chief?! Hope you doing well!🎉🎉
Getting fit & healthy for my wedding in 3.5weeks! As well as prioritising being a dad! 😃 Hoping to get back into UA-cam following wedding & honeymoon! Thanks mate!
Hi i have random questions. What laptop are you using for doing accounting work?
MacBook Pro has been my engine since I started at university at 18, now 31 😄
@@CRAIGO10 im planning to buy macbook air m2 cz it fits my budget , hope it can last that long.
@@justyana7022 I’m actually planning on upgrading myself to the new M3. Airs are a lot more powerful than they used to be & plenty for an accountant!
Hii Craigo, I'm preparing for a CIMA Africa quiz challenge. Do you have any advice for me ?
I have no idea what that is I’m afraid!
Super helpful!! Thanks so much. I achieved the applied knowledge level for ACCA, but I think I will pivot to CIMA as it’s much more aligned with what I’m doing.
My pleasure! Good luck 😃
Great video & explanation,i hold VUSA & will be adding more to it soon
Thank you sir! My investments in VUSA growing quicker than my savings right now 😃
@@CRAIGO10also back when you did video 3 years ago it was £50 now over £80 so yes good progress too 😊
A shame I was only at the start on my investing journey 😬
Great video, liked and subscribed!
Thank you mate! 😃
Hello, I enjoyed watching your video. I am a student, and as part of my project, I am organizing a seminar on Global Finance. I'm looking for someone who has experience in finance-related work. Would you be interested in being a guest speaker?
Thank you so much! Unfortunately I’m off grid for now! A lot going on, but will be back in the new year for sure!
Sir kindly tell me is it really difficult beacuse alot of people got stick in it Also tell me what will be an average sakary of CIMA fully qualified in your country Ty plz answer me
Don't take me wrong but Students can use chatgpt to pass all the exams except case studies. Isn't it?
If that’s what you believe 😂
Very helpful video, great stuff, thank you! :)
You’re welcome, glad you found it valuable :)
Helpful video, thanks! :)
Watching from sourh Africa Very useful information ℹ️
Glad you found value 😅
Im ACCA UK and CIMA UK ❤❤❤❤❤
Big up!
@@CRAIGO10 Thank you Really i Love CIMA UK more more than ACCA
@@Best_ways999 😂😂😂
I learned the hard way no pen and paper is allowed lol. I passed but that was tough
Hahaha! I had a shock in my first exam too! Shocked to use a whiteboard pen & laminated card 😂
@@CRAIGO10 so just want to make clear, Kaplan is your recommendation for study material?
If I made 18 months as purchase ledger accountant (in corporations) before starting study Cima does it count in Per?
I believe so! Cannot say for sure though as I don’t know the experience you have :)
I've just finished my CIMA management case study. Do you know how many certificates you get in total both when you've finished your exams and when you have your PER signed off? I was thinking one per level so 3, but dont know if there is 2 at the strategic level. I want to buy some nice photo frames but dont know how many to get.
You’ll have 4 I believe, one from each level. The final one is A3 size 🙃
@@CRAIGO10thank you 😊
I qualified CIMA in 1993 with first time passes. The best qualification i ever gained. Through CIMA i gained a well-rounded knowledge of industry and commerce unrivalled anywhere. A fantastic investment for anyone
Great Testimonial Daz! Guys & Girls! Please seek out Daz’s comment!
I ahve so much shoulder and back pain for literally the most basic exercises. I wish I could shred at the gym. I'll never be able to do my gym goals as a young person feeling like this. Good luck when I'm older.
Not good - sounds like you need to start with plenty of stretching!
Excellent instructions, i'm Brazilian from São Paulo and watching you video with a great resume and explanation. I'll changing my carreer for financial, actualy keeping my studies in data analytics. Thanks for your knowledge share
Good luck in your Finance career my friend :) Thanks for the kind comment!
I’ve been looking into CIMA, do you know of the certificate in Business Accounting can actually lead to any form of employment while you move on to the professional qualification? Can’t seem to find any info on any opportunities it can open.
Many graduate from university with exemptions through experience of their university course, which ultimately leads them to employment, I'd say yes!
There are 4 wondows exams a year , for the first window like February i can pass ba1 , next week ba2 up to ba4 in the single month ?
Only for case studies. Objective tests you can dig at any point throughout the year
Looking at doing level 2 AAT in accountancy.. on the fence at the moment.. I want to change career path but want something that allows me to migrate if I so wish…
CIMA is a great business qualification as well as Management Accounting. Although tailored, even if you decide to move on from Finance one day, a high chance of what you learn may be transferrable!
Does anyone have past papersof strategic level OTexams
These are all available in Cimas Exam archives, free of charge. Formed an imperative part of my learning!
Can AI take over the job of CIMA in future??
Probably, possibly, maybe 🤔😵💫
can u repeat that with the other pair
Other pair?
Craigo Charismo 🙂, I attended the CIMA presentation at work; they were good, but CIMa shudda thought about yo!
Nice one man! Hope you found it useful! Feel free to drop the CRAIGO GOAT name anytime 😆
Music is louder than your voice. Music sucks, your content is more important👌
Thanks for the feedback, boss man.
Which is better cima or acca+msc in applied accounting? If someone wants to first work in firms then in industry? Plzz plzzz plzz reply
ACCA probably better, although you may also want to check out ACA
@@CRAIGO10OK thanks...sure
This was really useful!
Glad it helped! 😬
Great review
Thanks buddy!
Hi Craigo thank you for the videos do you know any helpful what's up groups I can join? I am working on completing Cima operational level.
Astranti have useful Facebook groups for all levels. Search Astranti CIMA Operational Level into Facebook 😄
We srilankans in Accounting have another level of achievements.
Quite clearly - GOATS!
Sri Lankan CIMA student. Highly appreciate him. I'm proud too. As a 🇱🇰
Love to see the support you have of your fellow citizens, wish we had more of that in the UK! hah!
Could you please some exam tips about CIMA P1 exam?
Learn the accounting techniques, Balance the time you spend on Theory also, Lots of exam practice & ensure you're capable enough to attack the exam at the required speed
I have not seen a single humble person like you. You're an inspiration dude.
The sarcasm is real 🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely no sarcasm man, I like the honesty, i was planning to do UA-cam and it gave me that motivation that keep doing you will get there eventually.
Nice one mate! I appreciate it 🤩 go for it buddy! Opportunities are endless with YT!!
Congratulations 👏🏽🎉👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Great video! you should make more videos like this
Thanks buddy! I would have if Canva hadn’t taken my affiliate link away 😂😂
Thank you Craigo!
All good buddy 😅
Thank you for the clarifiation!

Hi Craigo, need some advice... Got my E1 exam on monday. Ive been using my tuition provider (BPP's) study materials and been smashing their practice questions/mocks. However, my confidence has been hit because ive tried some questions on proctor vue and some of the questions are almost unrecognisable. I notice the proctor vue questions are from 2019 syllabus so not sure if some of them are out of date. What are your recommended sources of practice questions?
Hey mate, I used to find the same with BPP, very impressed you're still passing! Always found BPP questions alot tougher than the real exams. I used to study with Kaplan, purely for this reason. At the time (Not sure if they still are) but Kaplan were the partner tuition provider of CIMA and I always found the questions alot closer to the real thing. I even came across a handful of questions that were exactly the same! Hope this helps & good luck on Monday!
@@CRAIGO10 hi Craigo, I passed!! Yeah Kaplan are still the partner tuition and they do this thing called CIMA aptitude which I think is what you're referring to, where you can simulate exams? I found that really helpful and I think one or two questions came up in my actual exam! 2 weeks break now before I move onto the next one. Following your advice and doing P1 next!
hey Craigo i trust u well thanks for this video...however did u study your cima CGMA directly out of high school or did u do additional courses like bcom and so forth can you please let me know as im an aspiring cima student looking to gladly tackle this qualification starting at certificate level
Hey mate, I tackled straight from uni. I'm not aware of your education system to know what bcom is. Hope this helps!
Book name for Flp.
CIMA has their FLP course where all materials are provided. Astranti also has their own :)
What qualification would be good to become a business analyst?
I'm not too sure, not sure whether there is one?
Please i have a question Is MacBook or laptop better for accounting it’s my first year in university
My preference has always been Mac, but honestly, they’re as good as eachother nowadays! Especially for what you’ll need for a degree!
@@CRAIGO10 thank you very much In your opinion Should I buy an M1 MacBook Air or an M2 MacBook air
Hello Craigo, I'm currently in my first year of my Bachelor's. I want to register for CIMA but the thing is can I get a tax claim after I pay the fees?
I assume you mean are the fees a taxable expense? I’ll be honest, I have no idea 🤣
