As said above its perfectly achievable. Your biggest enemy is the clock however it is manageable just take your time and get through the work methodically.
Make sure your familiar with the follwoing items and you will be fine:
SWA glands
FP Cable
PVC Single circuits
2-way & Intermediate switching
3-phase motor circuits
S-plan (If i remember correctly) heating systems
Safe isolation procedure
Initial verification (Inspection & Test)
Fault finding
Good luck

Is that all the AM2 now consists of ?? Surely not

No not all of it but that was what most of the candidates failed on when I did mine. It was a few years ago now so I may be forgetting a few things.

Haha ahh right fair enough..
I know they've cut a lot out the AM2 over the years but that would be taking the pee

The modern AM2 is a almost a joke compared to it's predecessor.
I've sat both, so my opinion is based on what I've seen and done.

Done my AM2 in Crumlin during the bad old days, was a strange experience!
Remember the red log books?
Hand written with diagrams of jobs done, I still have mine.
Why have they made everything so much easier? It's a shame really
