The ACCA March pass rates are out, and on a Saturday!
The surprise in the Applied Skills results is the jump in the PM pass rate to the heady heights of 45%. You have to go back to 2010 to see a higher pass rate – in June 2010 it was well over 50%!
However, the AA pass rate slipped to 43% this time around. The stats show this is the lowest pass rate since December 2023 (when it was just 41%).
The other Applied Skills pass rates all held steady and were over 50%. The Strategic essential papers also had pass rates of 50% and above.
It was nice to see all the Strategic optional papers above 40% this March.
AAA had a pass rate of 42%, and you have to scroll to December 2010 to find a higher one! All the rest of the optional papers mirrored recent sitting pass rates.
Some 92,224 PQs entered exams in March, with 103,785 exams sat. A total of 3,334 students completed their final exams to become ACCA affiliates.
ACCA MARCH 2026 EXAM PASS RATES: TX 53%; FR 50%; PM 45%; FM 50%; AA 43%; SBL 52%; SBR 50%; AAA 42%; AFM 44%; APM 40%; ATX 50%
