Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone has compared the new CT6 syllabus (for 2010 exams) to the current one. The Institute and Faculty's site says there are a large number of differences in the core reading, if I am not mistaken. I purchased the notes for 2009 but have not even touched them yet and so it's just REALLY disappointing if I have to purchase a whole new of notes at my own expense . I was hoping that it would still be possible to use the old notes? Are the changes so great that it would leave you lacking important information and CT6 knowledge. Would appreciate advice from anyone..
The cost of a second set of notes is about 50-55 quid. This compares with the 200 odd hours you'll need to put in to revise. If you have any doubts about the extent of the changes, invest the money!
new CT6 i'd also be very interested to know about the extent of any changes - does anyone know which bits are being changed? which chapters ideally?

You can also download the CMP upgrade which will show the extent of the changes from the 2009 to the 2010 notes.
new ct6 if you just need the CMP download, what is the £55 for new notes Cardano was referring to? Is this just the cost of a new set of notes which already reflect the changes, so you don't have to filter through the CMP download?
Yup essentially. Thought the CMP upgrade only details the changes that will seriously affect students understanding. So minor changes or extra questions, etc won't be detailed in there.
CMP Upgrade- Anyone know the Hi John Lee Do you (or anyone for that matter) know the link where we can download this CMP upgrade? Or perhaps a site we can visit and then search for the CMP Upgrade download? Thanks v much!
CMP upgrade its on the acted site, under core study material - just follow the links. they all seem to be 200 odd pages regardless of how much has changed - I don't know why. It might just be easier to pay the £55 and get the new version. http://www.acted.co.uk/Docs/2010/CMP Upgrades/CT6 CMP Upgrade 09-10.pdf
