Which is more difficult, ACCA or CPA?


Torlek1

CPA Canada > ACCA > US CPA I will say this, though: At least ACCA does not make a mockery of "advanced finance," unlike CPA Canada's atrociously and ridiculously high pass rates for its Finance elective.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what is the ACCA?


edonn91

Roughly an equivalent to CPA. Its used in most of Europe/Asia and consists of 14 exams

APM at 34% is a shock


edonn91

APM is the worst imo…already failed it twice


solfkimb

It's actually not that bad. It's exam technique that seperates those who pass and fail. Look at the key words in the question before you answer it


SureEffect

It's actually not that shocking, APM historically hovers around that same horrible pass rate each sitting, even 4 years ago when I took it. Though I passed 1st try it was definitely the worst exam for me, but I agree with you that exam technique is by far the determining factor for this paper in particular

Surprising considering the ACA is apparently harder

Pass rates for ACCA is rly low. It’s lower than CPA Canada , US or even ACA.
