    I don’t know if you noticed but people are not complaining about the difficulty of the exam itself, but mainly about the time allocation vs amount of calculations involved. I don’t believe the exam was difficult. I just can’t do it within 3 hours time no matter how much I prepare for it, which is extremely discouraging for me and many people out there

    This exam is ridiculous and as you mentioned guys it’s not for 3 hours (without Excel). I’m just trying to figure out what is the purpose of this exam and what exactly is being checked, why on earth exam questions are written to confuse candidates and make them waste their time looking for information? At this level I would expect real life scenarios that reflect the complexity of the real world and the fact that the paper is recommended for people with practical experience. Instead, we get complexity – academics’ style. Time to change for P5.
