All pass rates continued to climb as the year progressed, a point that Dr Noel Tagoe, CIMA’s executive director of education, ascribes to increased student familiarity with CIMA’s new syllabus and exam format.
Dr Tagoe said: “Our new exam system has now been live for a year, and we are seeing students feel increasingly comfortable with it, and increasingly confident in preparing for the more flexible, on-demand tests. As a result, pass rates are either remaining steady or are becoming higher, which is great news for our thousands of students looking to progress through their exams as fast as possible.
“Above all, we congratulate our students on their hard work – accountancy exams are not easy, so each forward step is hard-earned.”
