On the IFA website they have old exam questions but I haven't been able to find the stock answers to the questions without which the past papers are not a lot of use. For ACCA you get questions and answers and also several different publishe...

Hi, I just got my pass certificate for Sage Instant Accounts and was a bit underwhelmed to see "pass" as my grade - are there any higher grades or just pass or fail?
