Yeah.. it happened few times in the past i was sure i failed but surprisingly it was a pass. The logic behind this is that if the exams is hard the markers are more flexible. In contrast if the paper is okish or easy then you should be afraid. P3 was quite easy in june and that what is worrying me….And i believe there is moderation in marks as the passing rate across different exam sessions are too similar.

So the marks that u obtained may not be the actual marks, the actual marks may be adjusted to meet the bell curve.

Has anyone noticed in myacca wrong address details? Mine have reverted back to my old address when it was my new address before the results update.

Thats an interesting concept, though i was under the impression that the final P papers expect a different level of professionalism and sometimes this can be had to master.
At this level the ACCA qualification is equivalent to a Masters. Studies and assessments are different for a first degree compared to a Masters. I personally dont think ACCA have a set number of passes to give out, though it would be interesting to see what others think [whilst we all wait for Sunday night!].
Good luck people 🙂

I think this is possible. If ACCA wants to keep their exam reputation at a certain level, then there has to be some sort of moderation or balancing act to keep the passing rate somewhat consistent. Just a plain guess 🙂

While there is no specific number of passes to give out for P papers, the pass rate do hover around 50% (essential papers) & 30%(optional papers).
This is just my guess and don’t take it too seriously.
Good luck to you too!

My grey and white page has a box in it for exams, I assume to book exams. I used the link on page 5 of this thread, it seems like a student page. Nowhere to apply for membership. I don’t get this link as i log in and it looks different to my normal ACCA.Where did the link originate from?
You may have passed. I have been a finalsit since ages. Feels like been with ACCA forever.(sounds like a Logan movie right?:p). I personally know people who passed P6 by just attempting 60-70 marks of exam. Link theory is not everything but i have a reason to believe as per my past experience in this that those guys who got through with the link and sat the final exam (just one), it had always worked for them. For others who sat more than one this time, or people who sat one exam but couldnt get through, have still passed.(its not the end of the world). The crux of theory is that you sat one last exam, got through the link , means you are affiliate.
Good luck to all.

I log into myacca with the normal way, and when I tried to add an exam, it shows that there are ‘no exam for the session’ and the bottom does not state any date.
