General ACCAACCA Remote Exam Result Issue

I think that is self-explanatory and you will need to wait. I will see if I can find out anything more for you.

Thank you Kim

Hi, I also appeared for F5 via remote invigilation in Pakistan and have gotten the same email. I am also confused and panicked as to what could have actually happened. Was your section C question about rolling budgers and roi? Maybe there was problem with the exam itself. Did the invigilator point you out for misconduct or you think there was any such stuff?

Dear Talha, Yes my section C was about rolling budgets and roi. No invigilator did not point me out for any such stuff . There was a delay when i was opening my exam due to technical difficulties. But i don't think this counts as misconduct . I am also so worried right now. I hope everything will be alright .

Then I think there is an issue with the exam, because I know another who is also facing the same. My teacher said there are 5+ such cases. The invigilator didn't point me out either. I completed all the protocols and there were no technical difficulties either. I have tried calling and emailing ACCA but they are not responding. I am also hoping that everything is alright. The email is so ambiguous and confusing as it says "some of those exams" they are not blatantly stating if they are talking about us.

Also, I don't understand what does "irregularity in results" mean, this does not imply any misconduct. Or maybe the pass percentage or marks obtained might vary from centre based exams, so they are investigating.

@talhaiqbal - there is an investigation - concerning PM remote exams in Pakistan - and ACCA has written to all student to summarise why their results have not been released. The notification is not "pointing a finger" at any individuals. I will provide more information here as an when I have some.

Thank you for the updates. Very encouraging. If you are aware, can you please shed light on the nature of investigation and why specifically PM exams. Appreciated.

I too appeared in f5 exam remotely from pakistan and i am also facing the same issue

Same here!! @Kim Shouldnt acca let me know about the result of the other exam i gave?

@talhanaeem421 - I imagine that all results were uploaded to the system and they cannot now give students selective results - I will ask though and get back to you.

@kimsmith Thankyou that would be really kind of you!

@talhanaeem421 - what was your other exam - what does the e-mail say concerning your other result - if anything?

My other exam was TX and i also gave AA. However the email is the same as above. For reference: I am writing to you in respect of the examination(s) which you attempted under conditions of remote invigilation during the December 2020, Pakistan exam session. ACCA has identified potential irregularities in the results of some of those examinations which may constitute a breach of ACCA exam regulations. In view of the above, results for all candidates who took those exams will be withheld pending further investigation. ACCA will endeavour to complete this investigation promptly and will contact you initially within two weeks. Should you have any questions in relation to this please contact ACCA at [email protected] Yours sincerely

Any Update regarding this issue ?

@accountant100 - nothing to report as yet. I'm not expecting a swift response as this is an ongoing investigation - but I am sure ACCA is working flat out on this to get it resolved as soon as possible. Nobody wants students waiting on results any longer than is absolutely necessary.

I hope it doesn't take much longer, because we have to book exams for March session too .

Hey, I got an email from ACCA that says "Congrats on your exam success". The email reads: "Congratulations on your exam result! Your success means you’re on track to unlock your perfect career. Your ACCA Qualification will equip you with the relevant skills employers want. Take the next step towards your future and book your March exam now." However, I have not received my result as yet. What does this mean? Does this mean I've passed or this is a default email?

@talhaiqbal When did you receive this email ?

@talhaiqbal - as you are still waiting on results it doesn't mean anything and you should disregard. It's just a prompt to book for March exams which clearly you cannot do yet.

Any Update ?

@accountant100 - I promise I will post as soon as I receive any news.

@KimSmith Sorry to bother you this much Kim! but i guess we are all anxious about this. For suppose my job is at risk if i fail to appear in March session for my professionals :( Really appreciate you helping us out.

Hi Kim, Sorry to bother you again, but i hope you understand we all are very tense here due to our results. Any update ?

Thank you all for your patience. It seems this investigation is likely to take as much time as was originally indicated in the e-mail. Although ACCA hopes that the investigation will not continue beyond the exam entry deadline (1 February), if it does, students affected by the delay will still be allowed to enter and ACCA will honour the standard entry exam fee.

Hey guys, I just got this email from ACCA, did anyone else got it ACCA examination(s), Pakistan – December 2020 " Dear We recently wrote to you about the examination(s) which you took under remote invigilation conditions during the December 2020 exam session. As we explained, ACCA has identified potential irregularities in the results of some of those examinations which may constitute a breach of ACCA exam regulations. As part of our investigations into this matter we would like you to complete the short questionnaire below no later than Monday 1 February 2021. Complete the Form Thank you very much for taking the time to complete this questionnaire. Your answers will be fed back to the investigation team in the strictest confidence and will help with our response to you about your recent exam sitting. The team are working hard to investigate and resolve this matter, and we will be in further contact with you within the next 2 weeks. Complete the Form"

Can any one knows that How much time acca examiners will take to solve our remote exam result issue??

I am making enquiries but if you were in receipt of the e-mail in the post immediately before yours, you will see that that suggested 2 weeks from the date of the e-mail - which would be 9th February.

@kim smith can u tell us that will they release our results on 9th February or will update us on the matter being investigated and actually what type of investigation is going on and why its taking too long to investigate? as acca is not giving any update on the matter till now your response to will be appreciated thanks!

@irtazanaveedmalik - I only have confirmation of the information that other students have posted to this thread - that there is an investigation and the original communication indicated further contact "initially within two weeks" - and a further e-mail asked candidates to respond to a survey request by 1st Feb with next contact indicated on 9th. Presumably you were asked to respond to the survey and perhaps can glean something from that about the matter. Like any investigation there will be matters to remain confidential and given the seriousness of "a breach of ACCA exam regulations" that presumably affects more than just a few individuals there will be a strict due process to be followed.
