First of all my personal experience is that CA pass percentage is 50%, as I attempted Cost Accounting of Mod D of only 59 marks and passed that paper, because of this I am sure that passing percentage is 50%...

Now the question of CA trough ACCA, well, it depends upon student's apptitude, caliber, mathematical skills(i think so),and commitement...So I don't think that suggesting each n every person that you should join CAT n ACCA route to CA is not a good idea, coz we know here in Pakistan we have a special trendy culture, especially in case of Studies, "what others are doing is what we should do" is very easy to adopt but very difficult to go along with in case of Accountancy...Infact suggesting each n every person to join Accountancy(whether CA or ACCA) is not a good idea, very few are those who can fulfill the requirements...
Personally I have seen some students who joined CAT after HSSC and then gave up in the way and joined BBA sort of things...
But again its not a rule of thumb that CA through ACCA is a tougher option, it varies student to student, according to their own specific characteristics...
