    How did people find it.

    I could only really do 4 questions confidently. I attempted the the other 4 but I did just that...attempt.

    Nevertheless I found it more manageable than the previous 4 papers.

    How do you guys compare ST6 vs ST5 and CT8?
    I did CT8 and am wondering if ST5 or ST6 would be more complicated mathematically?
    Somebody mentioned on this forum somewhere that ST6 was more difficult to CT8, why?

    ST6 along with CT4 have been my favourite subjects. ST6 is more complicated mathematically and generally than CT8 yes and possibly the hardest of the ST subjects empirically. You can do ST6 but if you want to... please start now. Don't make the mistake I did..I had to do it in less than 3 months. I am doing ST5 in my next sitting and prob. ST6 resit...haha.

    Thanks for your advice. I am not going to be sitting the ST series yet....I'm trying to decide which ones I will be taking in the future. How does the ST5 vs. ST6 compare and with reference to CT8 (which I took)?

    • ST6 is harder than ST5 empirically i.e. a lower pass rate
    • ST6 has more overlap with CT8 in terms of content. 2/3 of CT8 is ST6
    • In terms of difficulty overall: CT8<ST5<ST6

    CT8 and ST6 cover a lot of common ground.

    To distinguish them, let us say they are both viruses.

    In which case CT8 is the flu and ST6 is HIV.
