AAT Q2022: the pass rates

AAT has released the CBA pass rates for year ending 31 December 2024 – here they are…

The AAT 2024 pass rates are out, and the good news is most paper pass rates are up on a year ago.

In fact, the level pass rates at every level are up. At Level 4, the percentage pass rate jumped over three percentage points year-on-year. Four assessments – BUSK, BKFN, ITBK and AUDT – have pass rates percentages in the high 80s. However, the assessment with the lowest pass rate is Financial Accounting: Preparing Financial Statements at level 3. Although this time around the pass rate is 60.9%, a year ago it was only 55.6%.

At Level 4, Personal Tax again (it was the same in 2023) has the lowest pass rate at 62.4%, but it is much better than the 2023 pass rate, which was 55.3%.

When it comes to graded qualifications distinctions it has always been tough getting one for the Level 4, and this hasn’t changed. Just 2.8% of students were awarded a distinction for their Diploma in Professional Accounting. That said, 46.1% of students did achieve a merit at Level 4. Note: Pass rates are only published for assessments that have been available for at least 12 months or where there has been a minimum of 500 sittings. The pass rates shown are the rates for assessments sat between 1 January and 31 December 2024.

Q2022 CBA PASS RATES

*TPFB, BNTA and PNTA cover a period of 29 January – 31 December 2024, covering the FA23 assessments only.

*Most assessments completed throughout the rest of the world (RoW) have had fewer than 500 sittings. As we published RoW pass rates in March 2024, for the 12-month period

ending 31 December 2024, we have made an exception to publish these pass rates to ensure transparency to students, training providers and employers.

#AUDT results period has been split due to an uplift that was in place and then subsequently removed.
