Passed 4th attempt, with 58%, which for me is a strong pass. I’m done! it’s taken more than 10 years with a large break in the middle. I am so glad it’s over! I can finally apply for membership.

For those who didn’t pass, do not give up! This time I downloaded the last 4 years exam questions and did every one as well as Questions from the BPP Book for those topics which had not come up recently. I have to say after previously using just BPP the Open Tuition lectures were much better and included more practical comments.

To add i am 45, work full time and have 8 year old twin boys, I am also not naturally bright. If i can do it you can too. Good Luck!

Congratulations to all thoes who passed. I failed again, feel absolutely frustrated……

thanks be to God i passed on my first attempt ,all exams completed what a sweet relief i now have my life back. good luck to all resitters it is possible dont give up

I scraped a pass and no more, now finished all exams.

I also want to say the THEORY OF THE LOGIN LINKS IS RUBBISH AS I HAD BOTH THE ERROR AND THE @STUDENT (what people were saying were fails on the other topic page) AND I HAVE PASSED.
So in future for people resitng last exam please ignore people discussing the login methods for finding out pass info.

Failed second attempt. I thought I had passed. Scored 42 first attempt when I left out like 30 marks undone due to poor time management. This time failed and scored 28 when I actually attempted all questions, really cannot believe it. What went wrong? I think I put in more theories or what and the marker got annoyed 🙁
What is this THEORY OF THE LOGIN?

I passed p5 ,my last in 3 Rd attempt ,
My trick to pass was simple
I just imagine my self as CEO of company in question and answer whatever seems sensible to the challenges that company faces
My suggestion to fellow students and to specifically p5 students to do the same
It’s only way out for p5
In other 2 attempts I tried everything ,I write whole theory of models but never get more than 40 ,

Trick of trade in p5 is solution to the challenges that any company faces and its only paper in Acca that can’t have one right answer (and that’s why it’s my favorite paper of all)

Other suggestion that I want to give to students is to try and write what ever you think in your own style and words

Don’t take past exams answer too seriously that’s( bu—–it)
And if u r stuck never lose hope ,
Always believe in yourself
And always said to to yourself that you r going to do it in next exam

Try to study with small incremental efforts and you will get your reward eventually

Thanks and all the best

Thanks to Almighty ALLAH, I Passed P5 with 53% in my 3rd Attempt.

Yemibabs – Give it a few days to rest then get back on it and start revising again. This was my 3rd attempt and i onyl just passed, which i am very surprised about (i thought i would be up in the 60+ range with the amount i wrote and valid points) I didnt feel i done anythig different this time round, i always use tht PEA method (Point, Explain, Apply) to get the marks. Just must have been lucky this time.

The “Theory of the Login” has been around for a while – if you go to the countdown threads, if it was your last exam, people found out a way to see if you had passed or not by using 2 old login screens to MyAcca, prior to results being released. If you had passed and were affiliate then it would shoud “contact members@acca.com” and the other login would show details – this would mean you had passed
If you logged in and it stated contact “students@acca.com” and the the other login shows and error screen then you were still classed as a student and had failed.
I was under the category of the error screen and still showing student@acca.com and i passed – proving that theold login theory doesnt work and shouldnt be used to determine a pass/fail.

Congrats, so did you see students@ on the welcome page or under general details tab as I still had students@ and failed?

Failed first time at 24%. Any advice

Passed @ first attempt with 53. Thanks to opentution, only 1 to go in Dec.

Passed in P6 – Link theory worked, had members email on ebusiness. It was updated on Thursday UK lunch time.

Passed on third attempt 65%! Finally understood this subject – advice for those who didn’t make it would be to focus on the technical articles and do every passed exam paper that there is … this finally gave me a pass and finally now done with all acca exams 🙂
