Wizard Learning: CII exam pass rates - advanced diploma, diploma, regulated diploma
The CII have recently published their exam pass rates for 2015 and we have added them to our existing table below so that you can see the previous years rates as well.
The rates are calculated based on the number of candidates who passed during the year divided by the number who sat the exam.
The regulated diploma average pass rate across R01 to R06 was down very slightly to 58.58% from 60.06% in 2014. The average pass rate in 2011 was 63.67% and has fallen every year. The highest pass mark was R05 at 67.09% and the lowest was R04 at 49.53%.
The advanced diploma average pass rate across AF1 to AF6 was up to 56.54% from 52.97% in 2014 largely due to the rise in the AF6 pass rate. The highest pass mark was AF6 at 72.29% and the lowest was AF3 at 31.47% following a massive 9.5% fall in the pass rates.
