Thanks Trevor! Are you in area where the pearson vue centre can not cope with demand? I guess i must have been lucky, I didnt go to my closest centre ( the appointments were better at one a little further away) but the availabilty was about a 3-4week wait. Hope you get booked in soon!

Hi All, I have my Level 3 exam on Thurs - have done a paper Mock and online mock but still don't feel ready.  If anyone could please send any old syllabus past papers through that would be amazing: emi_darnton@hotmail.com  Thank you and good luck to everyone cramming before the end of March!!

Hi,

I've just come back to studying after a year's break. I've booked my exam for early May and I'm feeling the pressure. Any mock papers would be wonderful  -  mail@katiewaldron.net

Many thanks!

Cheers,

Hi How is everyone getting on? Has anyone else had a phone call from ICB about membership registration?

I had a call a couple of days ago and I was told that if I pass my level 3 computerised (old syllabus) so that i would be eligible for MICB status, that i would have to pay/upgrade to MICB membership before the end of june or else I will have to sit 2 motre exams from the new syllabus in order to upgrade???  Currently I am only using a student mambership, not AICB as I do not really need the membership in my current employment, just the qualification. I do not intend to set up my own bookeeping company at the moment and I do not intend to use the letters after my name, therefore I did not really want to upgrade to MICB membership, but at some point in the future I may want or need to. But I think now that I will have to in order that I do not have to sit further exams? Am I the only person slightly confused by this, and  does it seem like the ICB are milking this change of syllabus a little. They extended the time in which to sit and pass the old levels of study and are now saying "pay up for a full more expensive membership by the end of june or you will have to pay and sit more exams to get the same membership at a later date!" So frustrated with how unorganised this whole switch of syllabus has been and how much stress it has caused. Surely I am not the only one??? Please tell me I am not on my own in feeling like this??

Hi Carrie,

Thank you for your time this afternoon, I am glad I was able to clear up any confusion.

As discussed, once you have passed your Level III (old syllabus), there is no deadline for you to upgrade to MICB.

We are calling all students who have completed Levels I and II (old syllabus) and inviting them to upgrade before the end of June, often for a pro rata upgrade fee to ensure they do not lose time on their student subscription, as this is the date that we are upgrading our Associate Members. 

As discussed in previous forum posts, those who choose to remain as a student after the 30th June, will be transferred over to the new syllabus and given exemptions from papers BA4 and BA7, they will have to take papers BA5 and BA6 to achieve the Level III Certificate. 

We extended the examination deadline purely because, in some areas, Pearson Vue was struggling to accomodate the large demand for examination sittings.

 

Kind regards,


Lily Wilson
