Practice Test *Conspiracy Poll*

    I'm willing to bet after how easy the test was that they have purposely made it easy to provide us all a false sense of security.

    By making it easy, we expect the actual test not to be hard. So we don't prepare as much and as a result, it affects our score on the real test which will be slightly harder.

    Just a theory, but I'd like to see if people agree or disagree with this theory.

    No doubt it will be harder, but not by much.

    Surely they'll have a required number that they want put through to the AC stage? so if they make the test harder than people are expecting and thus achieve lower results, wouldn't they need to lower the pass mark to make up the numbers?

    Going through old posts of the previous IST. It would appear that the practice test has usually been made easier than the real test.

    So again, just a theory. I'd guess it would be slightly harder than we expect. Though, if the numbers are lower than 5,000 I'd guess the test will be not too hard to pass.
