ACCA Professional Marks

4 professional marks are awarded for:

• FLOW - How well planned and easy to read is your answer

  TONE - Is it professional, does it read like the person who writes it would sound

  PERSUASIVENESS - does it convince me? 

  STRUCTURE of the statement - Is it a report, press statement, memo etc

These should be straightforward marks

Evidence shows though that students are not clear how a statement should be structured - so go and have a look at proper past papers in the exam centre and see how a report etc should look.

Good luck,
