@sock nee just check whether you filled in the google form as requested by OBU few days back in which they asked toprovide the contact details of students. Doubtful whether they have your correct email. Better if you email and check.

Dear Student,

As a result of the additional submission window in June, there will be a slight delay in the release of the RAP results and degree awards.

We have completed the marking and moderating of the RAP and these marks have been ratified by an Examination Board. We are now in the process of combining the RAP grade with the ACCA examinations marks so that the Examination Board can approve these at a meeting on Monday 23 September and we can then provide the successful students with their degree classification and final award.

You will receive your RAP grade and, where applicable, degree classification by Wednesday 25 September. Feedback, for those students that have been unsuccessful, will be provided by the end of September.

We do apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Kind regards

Well, above is something they could have informed earlier to students rather than waiting until last moment.

@GillianM, Thank you very much, i tried my level best to address the feedback provided by marker/moderator, I will then patiently wait for the results and thanks to both Trephena and you for the kind & helpful advises.

Thanks @trephena, I have submitted my project resubmission, but i found a issue with 3 of my references, i used Financial times online version for referencing some facts and now i realized that Financial times is a subscription based site and you cannot view the same page again without subscribing,

I am worried whether this will disappoint the marker, i have used totally 3 financial times sources from my total 45 odd references.

can you kindly advise please. further i have made around 3 grammatical mistakes in the project.

HI @trephena, can you kindly advise what are the documents that i should submit, will the below be enough (I have only failed evaluation part in RAP);

Resubmission statement
Research and Analysis project
List of references
Appendices

Kindly advise as i am planning to submit on 13.05.2019, thanks

[Dilan]

@trephena Awaiting your response on above, thanks

Dear Trephena,

I failed my OBU in period 32 and now i am resubmitting my project under same topic 17 in period 38. reasons for my failure is i was too descriptive in the way i have applied the corp. governance codes and i have just mentioned whether the company has complied or not, i didnt refer anything other than Aviva Plc’s annual reports. further i was failed due to using a tickbox approach.

Following the failure, i have gone through lots of news articles like reuters,guardian,ft adviser etc. and instead of just using a tick box approach i did my projectr as below.

i discussed main 5 sections of UK corp. governance code in part 2, then in part 3;
I made 5 mini topics with those 5 sections under which i have analysed practical scenarios where Aviva has either failed or performed well, i made mini conclusions under each section and also instead of just quoting the full description of CG codes, i have just gave direct reference to them to save word count and to avoid descriptive tick box approach, eg;- bla bla where Aviva has failed to effectively comply with code C.1.1 (Financial reporting council, 2016, p.22).

Further i did not use a nother company as a camparitor, i dont think this will be a issue because nothing about that was mentioned by moderator/marker in my results sheet. and the topic or info. pack doesnt say its a must to use a competitor.

instead i analayzed about the company using CG code UK, practical scenarios and news & stakeholder theory. further i did ratio and financial analysis to show the impacts on shareholders, other graphs and figures to show impact on employees as well.

Please kindly advise whether this approach is fine as i am about to submit my project in next few days, thank you Trephena.

Kind Regards
Dilan
