    i have written my AA exam 3 times and get it wrong all the time, the last one being a painful 49%. but i noticed during my practice that i got very low marks in section A, especially where i have to pick 2 or 3 correct answers out of a given question.

    kindly help on how best to answer the above
    and does it mean that if i pick say 2 correct out of say 3 that are needed i get it all wrong? or am given a half mark?

    Have you tried our Section A mock exam? https://opentuition.com/acca/aa/acca-aa-revision-mock-exam/

    There is NO partial marking for OT questions – you either get 2 or 0. You have to select exactly the number of items asked for – anything more or less will be an automatic 0.
