    For anyone that is thinking of quitting because of a bad exam result, don’t lose heart! I have just passed the PM exam after my 4th attempt. I can tell you it is very frustrating and makes you wonder if you should be doing it but it honestly is all about your exam technique. Make notes on all the lectures and do exam questions. Open tuition provides exam questions and they also give a discount for additional questions in which you can try (only costs £10 – worth every penny).

    I got 35%, 35% and 49% in my first 3 attempts and just thought I couldn’t do it. I passed this time with 63% all because I focused on correcting my exam technique. Remember that the way they ask the questions in the exam is more complicated than you think. (Do as many exam questions as you can!)

    If you didn’t pass the exam this time, don’t worry, you can pass it. We all hit a bump at some point and it is about showing how you move on from this! Good Luck! 🙂
