The two Partims, Taxation and Accounting, will be examined together, with the mark being weighted 75% for the Taxation Partim and 25% for the Accounting Partim (in view of the number of hours allocated to these Partims respectively).

There will be no requirement to pass each Partim in order to pass the whole, but neither will there be any exemption from session to session, nor from year to year, in the event of passing a single Partim.
