What Our Students Say...
DARIO PEZZATI P2 ACCA – 2nd place in Ireland 10th in the World – November 2015During my time at DBS I was very appreciative of being guided by very competent teachers, proficient in their respective subjects and comprehensively aware of the exam pitfalls. That created a significant feeling of reassurance. Not only that but the teachers rearranged the syllabus material to make it more user-friendly. Especially in the bulkier subjects, that helps a lot, as it yields consistency between the home study and the classes. The QBRs are also a very precious resource. I really recommend DBS in this field and would be confident no one would be disappointed.
Dario is currently working in the Irish subsidiary of a renowned shipping company.
RALITSA PETROVA P6 ACCA – 3rd Place in Ireland – November 2015I completed most of the ACCA exams through the courses provided by Dublin Business School. All the courses are very comprehensive and cover the entire ACCA syllabus.
All the lecturers are extremely exam focused; they have extensive knowledge in their subject fields and deliver the material in a format that is easy to both understand and follow.
Thanks to DBS I got placed on both Irish Taxation exams (F6 and P6) – in June 2011 on the F6 Irish Taxation exam I got placed 4th in Ireland and 9th in the world. In December 2014 on my final P6 Advanced Irish Taxation exam I got placed 3rd in Ireland and 25th in the world.
I genuinely enjoyed my time in DBS and am extremely happy with the lecturer’s teaching style and delivery of material. I would recommend DBS to anyone without hesitation.
CHRISTINE CASEY P1 ACCA – 3rd place in Ireland and 10th in the World – November 2015The lecturers at DBS show real passion, both for their subjects and for the achievement of their students. The really give it their all and go above and beyond to do all that they can to get you to that pass grade and above. Aside from excellent course tutoring, the lecturers have a real exam focus during every class, giving tips on answer technique and timing that really helped me to achieve high marks. It’s really helpful to have revision days spread across the term, to get into the exam mind-set and get practicing exam style questions early in the term, to help with studying at home. There’s lots of opportunities to sit a full mock exam, and the QBR day is a great time to practice questions and gain valuable feedback before exam day.
Christine is currently working as a fund accounting supervisor at Hedgeserv.
