Thoughts on the exam Sept 2015

The exam seemed quite fair to me. I just fear that the pass mark will be a little higher than for the previous sessions.
The 20 mark part on num 2 was a beast. I might have rumbled on that part together with the last part of number 3.
Im happy there were no calculations, those questions are a 50/50 thing, you either know what you are doing or don't have a clue at all!
 
I struggled with the cdc question, in terms of making enough points I think. Time pressure as always. Just gonna keep my fingers crossed
 
Exam didn't seem very fair to me - 2/3rds of the marks were on DC and 2/3rds not based in the UK.

Not exactly inkeeping with the syllabus of UK based DB schemes with emphasis on UK legislation.

As there were 2 DC questions I ended up repeating a lot of my earlier points so I'm concerned that they will only score once in the paper :(
