...EFFECTS OF TAKING QUALIFYING EXAMINATION TO THIRD YEAR ACCOUNTANCY STUDENTS CHAPTER 1 The Problem and Its Background Introduction Examination is one of the best ways to prove whether a student, or anyone who undergoes learning, learned something from what they have studied. Exam results can show in which lesson the students were not able to fully understand and what they were able to. But does this result help the student improve in their studies, and how those this results affect them, especially if the result will determine whether they stay on their chosen fields? Qualifying Examination is given to B.S Accountancy students in order to test whether they are qualified to continue the program and to improve their academic performance. It is in fact a policy set by the school to all programs that have board examinstions. Another reason why this examination is given to students is for them to be prepared for the licensure examination they are to take after graduating in college. Through this, the students will be able to review their past subject. Students will have a preview of what the board examination would be like after graduating, the stress they might encounter and the pressure of all the subjects that they will have to review. As a school policy, Qualifying Examination is given to students who will be able to pass all the Fundamentals of Accounting and all the Financial Accounting subjects of the accounting course.

...CHAPTER 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction “Stress is not what happens to us. It is our response to what happens. And response is something we can choose.” This sagacious saying was quoted by Dr. Maureen Killoran, a certified universalist and an advocate on health and wellness. The quotation imparts to us that stress is not altogether negative as what most people would think at first. It still depends on how an individual sees and copes with the stress placed upon him. If you perceive potentially stressful events as a challenge instead of a threat, less stress will most likely result. Stress does not have to control your life because it can be managed. (http://krystalk.wrytestuff.com/swa560692-Stress-Management-Managing-Stress-Before-Its-Manages-You.htm) However, stress, it seems, knows no age, race, gender, religion, nationality, or socio-economic class. For this reason, it is called “the equal opportunity destroyer,” for when left unresolved, stress can undermine all aspects of your life. (Seaward, 2006) Although it may seem that stress becomes a critical mass in your life once you leave home and get to college, the truth is that manifestations associated with stress started much earlier than college years. It is just that, the peak of the most stressful events in your life happens in college. College students, especially freshmen, are a group particularly prone to stress due to the transitional nature of college life. (Ross, 1999) As one shifts from...

...John Rodnie C. Cabarrubias 1-HAC Being an accountancy student in San Beda is very special to all and I should say that the people surround me or even my fellow batch mates have a higher expectations. Even our professors, board of directors and the Rector-President of San Beda College hoping that we will graduate as same time we enter the school. Last May 2012 CPA board licensure examination, a bedan made it at the top. Manuel Buensuceso Jr. was emerged as top 1 on the CPA board licensure examination, garnering a 94.86 percent passing percentage. Based on the Auditorial, his top performance makes him the second bedan in history to make it to the top spot in the CPA board exams. San Beda also receives a 100% SBC passing percentage, meaning all first time takers passed the examinations and with pride and honor San Beda made a celebration to honor their hard work. With a great pride and honor San Beda keep on sharing to all Filipinos that San Beda has a great accountancy program, just because we have the top 1 overall in the CPA board exams. They keep on posting the picture of Manuel in every bit part of the school and even outside of the school. Also they post some pictures and details in some prestigious newspaper in the country (Philippine Daily Inquirer and Philippine Star). The best part is that our fellow accountancy department keeps on reminding the Bedan community that we have it takes to be on the top. June 29, 2012 at Abbey Church a celebration...

...apprenticeship program is an organized course training plan carefully intended to transfer relevant knowledge, skills, and outlooks within a designated period of time from a proficient practitioner in a precise field of study or profession to a novice student who preferably has completed a speculative program study. In some cases, schools call this an apprenticeship program, practicum program, or on the-job training program. They all mean the similar thing and the general purpose is to keep an eye on a common thread. Apprenticeship is similarly a professional relationship between a student (the apprentice) and a skillful professional (the trainer or mentor), in which the student is obliged to diligently conform and learn from the expert professional. On the other hand, the expert professional is pleased to facilitate the learning procedure by exposing the apprentice to a carefully planned program of casual instruction, diverse set of meaningful work experiences, and a fair valuation of learning outcomes through applied tests. They also say that for a comprehensive and effective program of a study, a sound student apprenticeship program is necessary to be able to develop a well-rounded and competent graduate ready to embark on a professional career. The components of a sound student apprenticeship program are preparatory activities, student placement mechanism, monitoring system and evaluation process.

...to adjust to a group and behave in a way approved by the group.” Moreover, the easing of stress of college students may be one of the advantages of having an upright social life. The formation of reliable relationship with other people may support the students since the dilemma of the students may have solution through proper discussion with colleagues. In addition, another advantage of having an upright social life is the establishment of study partners by having an upright interaction with other people. It may be essential in college since the individuals may share insights and experiences that may be beneficial to eliminate the strain of students to comply with the requirements on time. The mental and physical health of the students might have an impairment if cramming is already a part of the regular routine of students. Moreover, Heibutzki (2008) states that “a single-minded focus on academics contradicts one of the utmost significant elements in the college experience, which is the ability to interact with people from various backgrounds”. Furthermore, one of the courses in college that may be in conflict with the social life of students is one of the in-demand courses in our generation which is the Accountancy program. It might take courage and persistence to maintain suitable grades for the students to continue pursuing the program. Due to the fact that the Accountancy program demands a number of requirements, students prospectively focus on their intellectual performance...

...After graduating from CUNY Borough of Manhattan Community College, I hoped of attending CUNY Baruch College to complete their CPA program in Accountancy. Over the course of the last ten years, I got married, had a daughter, and triplet disabled boys. With my family needs, it was nearly impossible to continue my studies at that time. Challenges faced created a struggle with finding a median between unpleasant work schedules and family needs. In 2010, I was laid off from an unstable job and has since had difficulty making ends meet for my four kids, husband and myself. As an outlet to stay motivated, I enrolled in CUNY SPS to continue towards my educational goal. SPS has provided me with the opportunity to complete my Bachelor degree at my convenience, while juggling family needs. I would not have been able to attend regular classroom sessions due to the demands of my life. I will complete the Online B.S. in Business program by Spring 2013. With the evolution of distance learning opportunities, I plan to continue to completion of an M.B.A. in the near future. I hope to gain work experience needed with the upcoming Capstone Internship and start a new, and exciting career in Management Information Systems (MIS). I enjoy the science of business management as well as the capabilities of computers. I believe I can interface well with humans and machines. MIS integrates my passion of business and computing. Becoming an IT professional will also make a significant contribution...

...Recruitment, selection and training Recruitment is the process of identifying that the organisation needs to employ someone up to the point at which application forms for the post have arrived at the organisation. Selection then consists of the processes involved in choosing from applicants a suitable candidate to fill a post. Training consists of a range of processes involved in making sure that job holders have the right skills, knowledge and attitudes required to help the organisation to achieve its objectives. Recruiting individuals to fill particular posts within a business can be done either internally by recruitment within the firm, or externally by recruiting people from outside. The advantages of internal recruitment are that: 1. Considerable savings can be made. Individuals with inside knowledge of how a business operates will need shorter periods of training and time for 'fitting in'. 2. The organisation is unlikely to be greatly 'disrupted' by someone who is used to working with others in the organisation. 3. Internal promotion acts as an incentive to all staff to work harder within the organisation. 4. From the firm's point of view, the strengths and weaknesses of an insider will have been assessed. There is always a risk attached to employing an outsider who may only be a success 'on paper'. The disadvantages of recruiting from within are that: 1. You will have to replace the person who has been promoted 2. An insider may be less likely to make the essential...

...ACADEMIC PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED BY ACCOUNTANCY STUDENTS CHAPTER 1 PROBLEM AND REVIEW OF LI TERATURE Introduction The continuous learning of students through the help of books, professors and even internet is a mere fact which shows that knowledge still flourish in our humanity. Thus, different students have different views and ways of understanding such transmitted information and studies. Life as a student is said to be fun yet also stressful. Requirements, research works, reports and examinations abound student’s life especially during college verve. Every student knows the terror of examination. Learners have borne the pallor of midnight cramming and struggled through the anxiety before and the forced euphoria after their baptism by fire. There are probably more mental breakdowns on campus because of certain phobias and circumstances. These said breakdowns and problems of the students can be detected through examinations. Behavior therapy literature is replete with studies that report success in desensitizing people to the fear of exams. School is really a major hurdle for most families. When children succeed there, everyone is happy; but when they bring their failures home with them, parents relive their own childhood frustration with education. Such academic problems should be recognized and should also be given proper attention to aid students. The researchers...
