I got the core but failed elective, I am over the fcukin moon with that!!!!

AtticusFinch86

I passed anyway. Seemed to get green for everything other than finance (which I got a yellow for.

What does a decile of 4 mean?

BIGKID2

yes passed aswell, decile 9

BMW22

Finally passed my elective! All done and dusted thank god. Congrats guys and for those who didn't get it try and persevere. It took me 3 times for elective but oh was it worth it in the end

dakerrymo

Delighted!!! What a wait! Anyone know what this decile and sufficiency thing in Elective is about?

Lou88

The decile indicates where u fell within the population that sat that paper..so if u get 4 u are in the top 40%

s15r330

I got sufficiency of 3 in elective. Is that even close?

Apm again

Finally passed the elective at the third attempt. Over the moon . Good luck to all!!!

Humour Me

Does everyone have a sufficiency score? Both of mine are 0.

0 is pass so 3 is not bad at all. It goes from 0 to 10 being the worst

I got a sufficiency of 1 last year in elective, sat repeat in January then got a 2... I sat all xmas studying and I don't know was the stress of it being so close worth it. Definitely have a good think about it and do what's right for you. August was not long coming around again I'll tell you that

That means the pass rate is high again for this sitting! Well done to all, it was only a few years ago we had the dark years of 2011 to 2014 where both CAP2 and FAE were hovering around 50% of students passing each sitting. Like a nightmare that would not end for aspiring Chartered Accountants!

Great time to qualify aswell, plenty of jobs there at decent salaries.

Enjoy your day all!

The Script Fan

So my status for both is passed but still kinda freaking that I'm seeing the wrong thing! Status being passed is all i need to look for isn't it?

So what does sufficiency mean? I failed the elective I got sufficiency of 1. I'd like to see the break down of B.C./ C's

Will you appeal ? Believe 1 is borderline and in the same boat myself

heretothere

I honestly don't know because I don't know what it means!! I appealed a CAP 2 I had gotten 48% on to no avail so probably no point

you could have a chance, they reverse a couple each year. Try and make a relevant case about a specific answer that you interpreted differently.

I passed core but failed elective.. I got a decile of 10, anyone know if that would stop me repeating in Jan?
Confused by the whole results interpretation!

s15r330

I wonder was the whole 1617 current debacle right?
I failed elective and my thing said current.

Yes, it was, no other reason for differences

s15r330

Anyone know cost to repeat elective

Lyra Fangs

Passed both thankfully, anyone know what the green blocks mean? Anyone got a link to what sufficiency and decile mean? :P Would like some more info.

BIGKID2

green means you have passed at a high level, orange is borderline. i scraped by core with 6 yellow and didnt even do the comp day
