    Chartered got back and said it is not possible to view the script, but I was told you could and that it would be of great benefit.

    Look up the following on irish times website : failed-exam-candidate-gets-right-to-written-paper-in-ecj-ruling, I cannot post link as new user.

    The above would prove they cannot do that.

    Has anyone tried to register for just the mock and final exam? It will not allow me to un-tick interim.

    Also what are your thoughts on the May/June revision course? They are very vague about the dates, I would do it if I knew it was on the weekend.

    The article is very recent as well, so it must be still allowed. Which person did you speak too, was it Audrey Carter, I find her fairly helpful. I would mention the ruling, if you haven't already.

    I registered for the Interim, mocks and final exam already, so i cant help you there. Surely ringing them will sort that out for you and they also should be able to let you know, when the provisional dates are for revision course.

    Sorry I cannot be more helpful.

    Does anyone know if it’s April you have to sit the Elective interim in or can you do it later?

    Have a BC don’t know whether to repeat it or not .

    It's on the time table they sent out APM revision course on 27th May, 9 & 16 June - all weekends.

    Honestly I found it useless before Christmas I'm going to sign up to the chartered grind school.

    I can't decide on repeating the interim assessment either I got a B.C. I just emailed them to ask it's on April 21st and I have a lot on between now and then, I'd be worried I'd fail!!

    Also not sure on the mocks I passed the mock last year!!

    Ye i'm definitely going to do chartered grinds school.

    I have heard the revision course isn't great but I think because its a new year with a few changes and different marking scheme it many be of more use?

    I honestly wouldn't consider repeating interim as with the BC carrying at 8.55% you would need to be getting 70% to be coming out with 10.5% going in, that's a lot of work for an extra 2% and there is a chance you could do worse.

    Just sitting the mocks to get more feedback on technique more than anything.

    I emailed about my interim assessment result and i only received 6.6%, so i guess not all BC are equal.

    Just got an email back, I also have 8.55% I'm not repeating! You're right it's unlikely you'd get a heck of a lot more.
    I was lucky to get the B.C like an absolute ejit I noticed an error in the main NPV question about 5 mins before the end and crossed out most of the answer instead of just putting in an little disclaimer. Lesson learnt!!

    My BC was worth 7.35%
    Think I won’t sit the interim due to work being crazy and not much time to study but afraid I’ll regret it in the summer..where is there logic for the different percentages for the BC?

    No idea how some are worth more than others, maybe we had more C's and just feel short of an overall C?

    I'm sickened just like everyone else, let myself get really annoyed/ frustrated over it for one week. But now everyone lets pick ourselves up, shake off that dust and lets all smash it in the summer!! I am just thankful it's not the core I never want to see that again. I'm going to really enjoy Paddy's weekend then spend Monday cleaning my study area and try to do an hour each evening.

    I suspect the the competence grades covered differing points bands on a marking scheme, hence the difference in weighted marks. :D

    What do you mean by industry file? What he was talking about in mock prep session?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6 acalass

    I have something on KPIs but it's fairly dated. I'll have a route around this weekend.

    Any idea's what to expect? What are they saying because of the change on the competency statement there will be a few indicators on models/ strategy?

    Hoping for a nice NPV

    I'm not 100% sure but I'd say it will be grand. No point in worrying about it now until the end of October
