PMACCA PM September 2020 Exam Results – Instant Poll and Comments

Thank you sir John Moffat for answering every question in the ask acca tutor forum and helping me get through this ?

Thank you Opentuition and John Moffat sir :) PASS 53

Thankyou so much sir. Passed ?

I thank God I passed at 57% in my first sitting even though i prepared well the exam questions were though.

Don't understand how I have failed this again! thought I did alright. I felt better about this sitting than the last and did worse! Is it possible they haven't marked section B? Everyone says this is marked by the computer but in both PM and tax I had written bits. Really frustrating me as I know the syllabus and it is just boring now, I can't understand how I scored so low!

This is my first ACCA sitting. Passed with 58!

It

Second time fail with 49%. Wondering if i should stop now.

Ty open tuition i got 65% in Pm and 74% in FM

So sorry please try again. 49% is hard to bear, I have been there once, it is tough but be rest assured you will make it at next attempt.

I failed 45 ! but will try again till I get it

same here. 45%. very sorry for those who failed 49%.

Pass 54% this was my second attempt. I had 33% last time LMAO

Thanks so much for all your help - managed to pass with 68!

Received 53% Pass for my first sitting! Good luck to everyone discovering their results this morning.

Thank you John!

Failed with 47% on my first attempt! Slightly annoying you cant get feedback from ACCA unless you pay £52 for the pleasure!!!

Failed with 37% second attempt my first was 38% feeling so horrible right now .. thought to try for December

what did you do you different in your study technique from your first to second attempt?

Failed with 36%. I took this paper after I gave up on it when I failed twice back in 2018 with 31% and 33%. Since then I moved on and did all the other fundamental exams now with only this exam remaining. This fees like a real hard punch in the gut. Demotivated to the very bottom. I practiced with OT and BPP this time day and night but the exam was very tough. Some of the questions were not even close to what I practiced. I need genuine help on this to tackle this exam. Any suggestions???

Thanks John, passed with 72% using only OT resources and BPP revision kit.

I need genuine help this is my second attempt I got 45% in first attempt and 40% in second I can’t say I didn’t prepare, I did the kit More than twice ,revised everything ,studied the notes , I’ve never used any other resources apart from Kaplan revision kit and my college notes and this failure is very depressing. I don’t know what to do next or how to prepare. I don’t know what more I should do . somebody please help me I’m even confused if I will pass anytime soon can somebody share the story so that I get motivated And also this happens only for PM I don’t find any other paper this hard in fact I cleared rest and I only have fm left and pm please please I need some motivation and help

Acca papers is based on professional knowledge because it is a professional qualification mugging up the kit is not enough the best tip is to pass acca papers is do much past exam as you can for at least 10 to 15 years...inshallah by doing this you will pass next time best of luck

49% is heart broken, but never give up.

I passed PM with exactly 50% after sitting it for the third time. Without John Moffat and his notes and lectures and the BPP books, I don’t know if I could pull it off all by myself. Thank you Allah, and John, for everything.

Hi. I scored 75% for this exam in September session so I will share my way of studying. Though everyone has their own style. I study from Kaplan text book. Read every chapter carefully and make notes while reading. My speed is one chapter a day. If in the middle/ end of a book i realize i dont have a well rounded picture of the content i have studied so far, i go back to the beginning and read all chapters again and take more structured notes. For this exam I read all articles on acca website as well which helped me understand what is expected of me. Because I did not like studying for it at all. Once i am done with reading a text book and doing excercise in text book i start exam kit (couple weeks before exam). And i do every multichoice question without looking at my notes and then C section as much as i can but never manage all of it. Also i did one timed mock exam on acca website. The result - i found C section messy in exam however I had 2 hours left for it as I did the first two parts in 1 hour.

First time passed with 66%. Thank you John Moffat! I have to say the exam was awful, badly written etc etc. For those who did not pass please don't give up, I believe next time It wont be as tricky as this one. I studied more than in any other exam: Open tuition lectures, some exercises of BPP workbook and all the exercises of BPP revision kit. I did all passed papers on the ACCA website and read all the articles. Still I dont think I have ever seen something as complicated as the PM exam Sep 20.

To all those who are grateful to Open tuition I would like to encourage you to donate. I just cant imagine what I would do without them!

I passed on first attempt with 60% - cannot thank you enough John! Self study using OT lectures and notes, Kaplan text and practice kit, and BPP practice kit.

Pass 62%, this was my second attempt. I got 44% the first time.
