Hello there,

No, you don't need to appear for all four papers again if you have failed only in Maths . According to the CMA Foundation exam rules, if you fail in any one subject, you will need to reappear only for the failed subject . In your case, since you failed in Mathematics (with a score of 26), you need to retake only the Maths paper .

You will keep your passing marks in Law , Accounts , and Economics . Make sure to check with the official guidelines for any specific instructions related to your situation, and apply for the supplementary exam for Maths.


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

According to the Institute of Cost Accountants of India (ICMAI), if you fail in one or more subjects in the CMA Foundation exam, you need to reappear for only those subjects in which you failed.


Eligibility to Reappear

To reappear for the failed subjects, you'll need to meet the eligibility criteria, which includes:


- Registering for the re-exam within the stipulated timeframe

- Paying the requisite re-exam fees

- Meeting the minimum attendance requirement (if applicable)


Re-Exam Process

Here's what you need to do:


1. *Register for the re-exam*: Fill out the re-exam registration form and pay the required fees.

2. *Prepare for the re-exam*: Focus on improving your performance in the failed subjects, particularly Maths.

3. *Appear for the re-exam*: Take the re-exam for the failed subjects.


Important Notes

- Make sure to check the ICMAI website for the latest exam schedule, fees, and eligibility criteria.

- You can also contact the ICMAI helpline or your local ICMAI chapter for guidance.


Best of luck with your re-exam preparation!

The CMA Foundation exam has a passing criteria of 40% in each individual paper and an aggregate score of 50% in all four papers combined.

In your case, you have failed in Maths as you scored below 40%. Although you have passed in the other three subjects, you will have to reappear for all four papers in order to meet the passing criteria.

It's important to focus on improving your weaker areas and ensuring a comprehensive understanding of all subjects to clear the exam successfully.

n the CMA Foundation examination, the passing criteria are as follows:


Minimum Marks in Each Paper: You must score at least 40% in each individual paper.


Overall Aggregate: You need a minimum of 50% aggregate marks across all four papers, which equates to at least 200 out of 400 total marks.


your scores were:


Mathematics: 26


Law: 56


Accounts: 50


Economics: 60


While your aggregate score is 192, which is below the required 200 marks, the primary concern is that your Mathematics score is below the 40% threshold.


According to the Institute of Cost Accountants of India (ICAI) guidelines, failing to meet the minimum required marks in any individual paper necessitates reappearing for that specific paper. Therefore, you will need to reappear only for the Mathematics paper.

Hello

In the CMA Foundation exam , if you fail in any subject , you are required to reappear for all four papers not just the failed one . So, even though you passed Law, Accounts and Economics you'll need to reattempt all four papers in your next attempt.

Make sure to focus on improving your Math score , while also revisiting the subjects you passed to ensure consistent performance .

ALL THE BEST

Hello,

In the CMA Foundation exam, you need to score:

At least 40% in each paper.

At least 50% aggregate across all four papers.

Your scores:

Maths: 26 (Failed)

Law: 56 (Passed)

Accounts: 50 (Passed)

Economics: 60 (Passed)

Even though you passed three subjects, CMA Foundation does not have a paper-wise exemption system. Since you didn't score at least 40% in Maths, you will have to reappear for all four papers in the next attempt.

Yes, in the CMA Foundation exam, you need to pass all four subjects with at least 40% in each and an overall aggregate of 50%. Since you scored 26 in Maths, you must reappear for all four papers, as the CMA Foundation follows a group-wise passing system.
