SP5 and SA7 together

Is there anyone who has attempted both these exams in one sitting? If yes, could you please elaborate on the pros and cons of doing it in the same attempt.

I have already attempted SP5 twice. Failed this attempt by 5 marks.

 

I wrote them independently in subsequent attempts, so I don't fulfill your criteria but I'd say there is significant overlap between the two in terms of content, with SA7 absorbing all that's in SP5 + parts of SP6, CP1, CB1, CB2 . SA7 requires a lot more intuition & focus on big picture narrative while SP5 requires a deterministic problem solving approach. Studying SA7 together with SP5 can only boost your chances of SP5 pass at the least.

 

Thanks so much. I guess I'll go ahead with both, it will definitely help me with SP5.
