In the 3nd year of FD, should I ditch it in favour of ACCA?
Hello,
Long story short, I am the 3rd year (second semester) at Birkbeck doing a foundation degree in Management. I only have half a year left of this year.
I have a 9-5 job working as an accounts assistant and I have just started the ACCA courses, F1 (also F2 and F3 paid for already).
It's getting harder as I don't really have that much time and I was thinking to abandon the university course and continue with the ACCA, but my husband is completely against it, his reasons being the fact that I only have courses three evenings a week for a few more weeks and then two modules for the next year as I didn't pass these ones.
Also, it is not very challenging, quite easy, but time consuming. He also says that I will regret this for the rest of my life.
My reasons are time and money (£2600 - university per year; ACCA F1-F3 courses being paid already by my employer).
Can you please advise?
