[_] I would like my name to be excluded from the passed finalists list. Both this theories have proved for many people in the past. I also for me.

hi, do you have any tips for those who
Self study?

Sorry about your result for AAA @hopeneverdies . What was your secret for passing AFM?

I have been scoring exactly 46 consistently for the last 4 attempts regardless of how good or bad or complete or incomplete my AAA paper is. I mean what are the odds. Could this possibly be due to anything on there side?

Pass with 63 (previously 44 and 46).
My study tips is to 1) go through all the past papers since 2006 as all questions repeated , 2) master your procedures and working documents as it worth 1 mark but have to write a little 3) summarize answers from past papers to each IAS and IFRS in written, it is very important 4) summarize business risk questions in order to understand what to write 5) do not underestimate questions on due diligence and other analysis areas 6) explain every point of the answer 7) follow time management on exam do not stuck with the questions 8) read and understand technical articles on ACCA website (first 5 especially)
Good luck with your exam, it is not that difficult.

For Zhenya from above – If i can just ask, you say to go through past papers from 2006 onwards but on ACCA website they are only available since 2014. Where do you get older ones pls?

Martina – a lot has changed even since 2014, so worth investing in an ACCA-Approved Revision Kit for question practice that has been updated to reflect the style and standard of the new exam (since September 2018) and the more recent auditing and financial reporting standards (ISA 700 series, IFRSs 15 and 16 in particular). You don’t want to be wasting study time on obsolete material.

@chullbulla
My lil advice: stay put; don’t change paper. Your learning curve starts all over again if you change paper. For APM, inbox me on donaldwhale@gmail.com for a few stuff that could make the difference you desire.

AFM 60
AAA 54

Both at first attempt.
And this concludes my 1.5 years journey towards my ACCA qualification.
Self study all the way.
It was a good run.

Everyone who passed, congratulation.
Everyone who did not, heads up and go again.

What is the main difference between AAA UK variant and INT? also will OT lectures cover the INT variant?

The syllabuses are the same except that in F (Other assignments), section 4 is the audit of performance information in INT syllabus (see Chapter 31 of our notes) and auditing aspects of insolvency in UK syllabus (see Chapter 32 of our notes).
