CIMA Publishes its May 2008 Exam Results

The May 2008 results mark the latest diet of exams of CIMA’s (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) current syllabus.  The latest round of exams showed some mixed performances and CIMA is pleased to note that overall the Managerial level global pass rates have increased when compared to November 2007, with the pass rates at Strategic level having dipped only slightly.

There have been some excellent student performances from around the world, proving that dedication and study can produce exemplary results, with two international prize-winners from Sri Lanka and Ireland. Commendations in individual papers included students from China, Dubai, Germany, the Netherlands, India, Pakistan, Poland, Sri Lanka, as well as Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales, working for companies including Barclaycard, Cadburys, Deloitte, DHL, IBM, Morgan Stanley, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Tesco and Vodafone.

CIMA has an on-line dedicated area for student support, full of tips and advice for exam success in the official student section of the cimaglobal.com website. The site consists of student guides and post-exam guides which focus on performance in all past papers. These are invaluable tools for exam success, and CIMA highly recommends that this area of the website is accessed regularly.

A new student e-magazine, Velocity, is also available which gives students dedicated support, advice and guidance to help them through the exams and their career progression.  In addition, CIMAstudy.com courses were launched earlier this year providing on-line support for CIMA students at Strategic level. Courses supporting the Managerial level papers are due to be launched in August. Please see http://www.cimastudy.com/ to try a demo module and for more information about the products.
