I passed with 70% marks! A tad bit disappointed since could have scored better. I am extremely grateful to John for his amazing lectures and concise notes which have gotten me through this exam. Thank you so much once again, John.

passed with 65% ,thanks a lot john it would disaster without your lecture.

Passed with a 59. Am quite surprised, it felt like the toughest paper of the 3 I wrote.

passed with 59%, very disappointed with result. MCQs were very tough.

Passed 74% thanks OpenTuition, brilliant resources. I just used the Lectures and a revision kit.

Thank you, John for the videos and for answering the qustions! Passed with 70 marks.

Hi all, I failed with 49%! I didn’t get NPV or WACC in section C, which I was hoping for. I watched the course lectures and watched the past exam videos as well as printing additional past papers to practice MCQ (Section A&B). This was a 3rd resit (gaps in between due to family situation) for me having used just the BPP study text and revision kit before. I don’t find the MCQs in the revision kit to be similar to the MCQ in the exams! I’d be grateful for any help on this as I’m beginning to think these exams aren’t for me as I can’t keep failing by such a small margin, I’m struggling to stay positive as it keeps happening. When I see people scoring 70-80 marks I’m wondering how and what I’m doing wrong? Thanks.

First time sitting and clear both F7 and F9 with 68 marks

Passed with 54%. I am extremely grateful to OpenTuition. I used John's revision notes, MCQs along with Kaplan revision kit, thanks.

i think the problem is you dont have clear knowledge of the paper and might not understand what the questions ask for.. I advise you to start from the scratch as if you are studying FM for the first time. and most importantly do the past exams on the acca website.( i got a very similar Lease/buy from Past paper of last session).

Thanks Mahim, I got the past exams that contained the MCQs from the ACCA website. Yes I will start again, but I did have confidence with section C, I was just unlucky with the draw.

Don’t give up hope. This was my 2nd attempt at FM and got 43 and 1st attempt was 47! I find the MCQs the hardest. I use BPP revision kit but the MCQs are a lot easier than the exam type ones. I will also need to approach this differently and hopefully passim December

I did try both BPP and Kaplan and I found Kaplan was harder than BPP. Maybe try both of them if you have time. Good luck for December exam.

Passed FM with 60 Marks, Thank you Open tuition for all the materials provided on their site.

Passed it with 71 best exam I have ever study

Hi, I have exactly the same problem! I have failed with 49%! I think it is mainly due to my poor results in Section A & B. I also got confused with the way MCQs were presented and found them different from the practice questions. I studied BPP study text and practiced all past papers and I was satisfied with section C but MCQs were the worst! Any advice on how to understand and prepare for them better?

Passed with 56% thank you Open tuition.

Thanks to John I was able to clear my FM paper in my first attempt. PM is next.

Passed, 58%. my exam felt like a disaster and I walked out of there certain I had failed, I had already talked myself down and prepared to hear i failed and was ready to just redo it and work harder. when i saw that i passed i was truly shocked.. what a relief!!

Pass with 61%.Thank you Open Tuition for lectures and tests! Considering all the challenges in this period and my study for FM level, in this exam I was not performing at my best knowledge. Still feeling that all the work for this exam is helping me to be a step forward in my final objective: ACCA qualified!

I did not write in September, I am writing in December and this is my 3th attempt having been failing with 47% and 48%. any tip I no longer have courage to study. Tips will be welcome, I really want to pass this course it feel like a nightmare, any assistance will be welcome. any tips on how to balance working and studying.

FM: 53% PM:35% (Failed Again) Glad i cleared FM Thanks to OpenTuition

A pass is a pass. I passed with 55 and to be honest I know my mistakes and I know the material but I blocked on the exam. Its one of those things. The most important is that you passed. And in anyway you'd have to do an advanced paper on the same stuff so sure you will know everything by heart at the end.
