I have mine on the 16th December (C&G 2382-12), only got told last week I am doing the newer qual, so £50 gone straight away on new regs book. We are not allowed to take a tabbed book in the exam, or any post it notes in the book either. Have been told they will get taken out if they are inside. I have been going through the book most evenings and done a couple of pass papers, feeling optimistic so far. Any tips or advice would be great.
Thanks
Ian

Ebow, as long as you can read you'll be fine. Just make sure you understand the question before you answer as sometimes the questions are a bit ambiguous.

Well done Marie-Claire, glad the hard work paid off.

Just out of interest
Marie-Claire or anyone else, how long did you have to wait for your results? I have my exam on the 16th December at my local college, day it shuts and wondered how long you had to wait?

It's open the following Monday, but I've been told I have to wait 2 weeks?
Thanks
Ian
Bye the way Marie Claire, well done....glad you passed.....

They tell you there and then if you've passed - or at least my lot did. TOP TIP - ask for a print off "bar chart" type thing if you can which gives the actual percentages for each section. When the 17th cert comes thru the post it just says "PASS" on it - you don't get the bar chart one. I got my bar chart one and its nice to keep.
