if, yes then what is the career of students who have multiple attempts in some papers?
They ask if you are a first time passer that’s all
They never ask you that how many times have you flunked... But yes when you will apply for any job they will consider your year that from which year have you started ACCA. This will show that how fresh is your knowledge.
Leave this thinking.... Put your efforts qualify....in the end what matters is your qualification...... Once you enter in job market, after some years no one will bother how many years you took to qualify.... You hard work will matter....
Multiple attempts in one or two papers doesn't matter much instead the time taken for completion of ACCA may be considered or may be compared with your previous degree that why there is so much time difference in your previous qualification and ACCA
