    The “Read the mind of an AAA marker” – provides INVALUABLE insights into the marking of two candidate’s scripts
    https://www.accaglobal.com/content/dam/ACCA_Global/Students/prof/p7/Read_the_mind_of_AAA_marker_WEB_v2.pdf

    To obtain most benefit from this resource I URGE you to attempt the Qs yourself first.

    Hi.. I have recently received the result status of p7 in which i got just 33% marks but i had been attempted complete 100% paper. My question is that is there any chance of not including marks of any question during counting from examiner. Because i simply want to recheck my check my exam. What would be the best option for me?
    Note: I’m more than 80% assured that my marks should be more than 50%.
    Need your guidance here. Thanks!

    This wasn’t the place to post your question. See here https://opentuition.com/acca/acca-administrative-review/ – an administrative review is not a remarking service

    I recommend you move on and start by reading carefully the examiner’s report https://www.accaglobal.com/an/en/student/exam-support-resources/professional-exams-study-resources/p7/examiners-reports.html to see where you need to improve your performance – refer also to the resources flagged on this if you haven’t seen them before.
    Attempting 100% of the exam does not necessarily mean that you answered the Q set. If you wish to follow up this discussion, please make a new post.

    My only question to you was that is there any possiblity of any counting error during adding marks of all 3 questions?
    If it is then is that possible in rechecking they accept that mistake and clear my exam..

    No – arithmetic errors are not possible.

    Good morning. I sat AAA in march2020 session and got 36%. I am resitting in September 2020. Should I also do APM for this sitting or too much to do them both? These are my final exams.

    Only you can decide – I suggest you download the AAA retake guide from here https://www.accaglobal.com/ca/en/student/exam-support-resources/professional-exams-study-resources/p7/retake-guides.html and “reflect” on why you failed as that will inform what you need to do to be successful when resitting.

    Also download the APM support guide from here. https://www.accaglobal.com/my/en/student/exam-support-resources/professional-exams-study-resources/p5/self-study-guides.html

    Use the proforma study plan to map out what you need to do – if it’s going to be “tight” on initial planning it will only get tighter – so don’t over-task yourself. Better to succeed one at a time rather than risk failing both. Of course you could start your studies on APM sooner even if you decided to not sit it until December.
