The ACCA pass rates for September exams ‘held steady’, and there were no real surprises this time around.
PM and APM had the lowest pass rates in their respective levels, which is the norm these days!
There were little wins, however, with the SBL pass rates up to 53%, and AAA jumping three percentage points when compared to June, to 42%.
Over 100,000 PQs sat exams in September, with 114,239 exams completed.
Alan Hatfield, Executive Director – Content, Quality and Innovation, said: “I’m delighted to see another strong set of results from the third exam session of 2026. Many congratulations to the successful students from this session – your goal of ACCA membership gets closer with every exam pass.
“In addition, we would like to congratulate 4,042 students who have now completed all their exams and will move to affiliate status. We look forward to welcoming them to membership when they will join over 266,100 talented and committed ACCA members around the world undertaking successful careers and making a positive impact.”
