    Hiya,

    I did my undergraduate in Biotechnology and later completed CIMA -(management accountancy). I did the accountancy exams straight through, without any exemptions, a few years after I left college. So my expereince is not a lot of help - except to say that doing CIMA has been a big help in my career.

    However, one of my fellow Biotech students did the post-grad diploma in accounting straight after college. She went straight from there into Ernst and Young, and is hugely successful (if you measure success by money, cars and luxurious lifestyle!!). She's also travelled all over the world.

    Your best bet is to contact one of the lecturers in the course. I'll see if I can get you a contact phone number / e-mail - however, it will probably be tomorrow by the time I get my hands on it.
