    Hey there OT team,

    Let me thank you once again for the wonderful service you provide us with, the students are forever indebted to you.

    I know the Option papers are very very tough, with the global pass rates being testament as to how difficult it is to clear them.

    I was wondering if there was a way of sitting for 3 optional papers at one go, it might sound crazy but you’re better off attempting 3 papers hoping to pass 2 rather than attempt 2 hoping to pass both.

    Thank you for your time. Cheers.

    hey!
    Firstly if you try to enter more than 2 option paper, the following message pops up:
    “You can enter for a maximum of 2 Options papers for this session.”

    Secondly, even if you can by writing to ACCA and stating a valid reason, it will be so unwise as you will have to prepare for 3 papers and you time and energy will be divided in 3, whereas if take two paper, you can focus much better and allot more time and energy to the 2 papers.

    Its not a fluke that you pass the exam. it requires a lot of effort to pass one.

    Hope that helps 🙂
