Hi All,
i’m about to register with ACCA to sit F8 in June this year. Just wondering, have many chosen to sit the CBE as opposed to the paper based exam? When I went to register for the June exam, I was given the option and it made me think about which one to pick. I hadn’t given it much thought but I kind of like the idea of doing it on a computer and not having to actually write in a booklet. I work with computers every day anyway.
Any thoughts/opinions?
Thanks
February 13, 2017 at 7:14 pm #372289I’m going with CBE, looking at the historic pass rates. CBE’s have 70%+ pass rate, paper based can be as low as under 50%
