Original post by @afia.a2109
My Fail score is :
AFM- 37
SBL- 36For both the subjects, I read Kaplan Study Text 2-3 times, solved past exam papers, read Tech Articles…I was not expecting such a bad score.
Now I am baffled and with low esteem. Unable to decide whether to go ahead with 1 paper/session or both the papers together…With 6 weeks left in hand..I just don’t even know what must be my modified exam approach.
Looking for your guidance & support.
Thankyou
OK … as you prepared for the exams and were surprised at the marks, I am going to assume you have the knowledge necessary to pass these exams – and what we need to do is work on your exam skills.
To answer your first question – with SBL on the Tuesday and AFM on the Friday – I think you could prepare to resit both – there is even more cross-over on the exam skills for these exams, now that options have 20% professional skills marks.

@kim Thank you for the resources you mentioned. I will ensure I go through each of them to improve my exam skills to score better.
ACCA has now added SHORT videos on EACH of the professional skills – communication, analysis and evaluation, scepticism and commercial acumen – to the professional skills pages for each of the option exams:
