For example, if one is trying to get a first for the oxford brookes degreee then the marks of the f3-9 exams determine the grade. So is it possible to retake an exam just to get a higher mark even though it was passed the first time, and is this higher mark accepted for our degree grade?
thx.I don’t think so never heard of such a thing. Please contact ACCA for confirmation.

What is the benefit of getting higher marks ? Neither ACCA give this opportunity 😛
Once you have passed f1-f9 you have the option of taking a research module with Oxford Brookes University and getting a BSc in Applied Accounting. Then the marks you got for f4-f9 and the research module will determine what grade of degree you get.
So the benefit of getting higher marks is a first degree rather than a 3rd degree for example.
Remember that to take the oxford Brookes you must register for it before you take any paper from F7 – F9. If you don’t, then you’ll be inegible for it once you’ve passed any of those papers.
Also, anybody can resit any ACCA exam that they’ve already passed just by registering for it again as normal. However, as soon as they register to resit the exam, the original result becomes null & void and it will be the mark in the resit that will count. So, if their pass mark in the resit is lower than what they got originally, or they actually fail the resit, then they cannot keep their original mark instead.
Whether taking resits would have any effect on the orginal award re Oxford Brookes, I don’t know.
