Me too….
44 but ACCA is my third Accounting Qualification.Just depends how you come into the programme, so age is not really an issue.
34 and hope to finish this year
To be honest, I did start studying around 23/24, but put it on hold until about 29, I wasnt ready to dedicate enough time at a young age, too busy enjoying myself 😉
I am glad i did, not being qualified has in no way hindered my career, Im just about to start my first FC role on a pretty nifty salary, and I am still only a finalist
49 and half way through. I sat a couple of the exams in the1980’s but didn’t have any experience and failed them. I now have a lot of valuable experience which helps me with scenario questions in exams. Sitting the exams now is not a career move just a personal achievement.

I’m 37 still have 4 papers to go if I get a good result tonight!
Maybe this survey would have been better with some indication of how many years ago you started and how many more exams you have left to pass.
Maybe
