Exam results (TT JulAug08 p44-45)

April 2008 was the last sitting on the old MCT syllabus: 60% of candidates achieved the MCT and are eligible to become full members of the ACT. It was also the first sitting on the new MCT Advanced Diploma syllabus. A small group of candidates was eligible to complete under the new syllabus, and three were successful across all the assessment components for this qualification; two of the three gained distinctions.

At AMCT and for CertICM, pass rates were within the normal range for the foundation and associate papers, but across the board there were many strong scripts and some outstanding individual performances. In the Financial Management and Accounting paper, over a quarter gained 65% or more marks, and nine were awarded distinctions; one candidate achieved a score of 95.5%.
