Understanding Your Results

Pass Grades

ACCA doesn't give letter grades. You either:

  • Pass: Scored 50% or above
  • Fail: Scored below 50%

Score Ranges (if provided)

  • 50-59%: Pass (lower range)
  • 60-69%: Pass (solid)
  • 70-79%: Pass (strong)
  • 80%+: Pass (exceptional)

Failed with 45-49%?

This is a marginal fail. You were close! Minor adjustments could make the difference.

What to Do After Results

Celebrate! Then:

  1. Update your CV with new progress
