How are people finding it after completing CT exams?
Reading through CA1 and a ST subject... well it doesn't seem scary at all, except for the sheer volume to deal with. Lots of repetitive concepts.
I'd rather read through these subjects than resitting CT4, CT5,CT6 ... let's just put it like that.
I'm not sure what story explains the pass rates for the post-CT exams. Are some pass rates low because people aren't studying as hard? This would be understandable as people are a few years into their job and may have more responsibilities or have to work more overtime perhaps. (Hopefully not a deliberate action from employers to stop them from qualifying!!!)
Or are they more difficult exams to pass than the CTs because they're more 'wordy'? i.e. has the profession attracted maths types, some of whom struggle more with 'wordy' exams?
In the past I've heard horror stories about people who've almost passed all the exams but couldn't pass one remaining exam for many years like the old communication one. And I know of very motivated knowledgable people who just couldn't finish them off after CT exams. Why? - I don't know.
