    Is it not worth just trying a different option paper? I kept failing ATX, failed it 3 times then switched to AFM and passed 1st time. God knows how many time I would have to retake tax if I stuck with it

    No, there will still be 100 marks in total, 50 marks to pass but 20 out of the 100 marks available will be for professional skills like with SBL. So you will essentially have to write 80 marks of knowledge but in the same time frame as you do currently for 96 marks of knowledge (you get 4 pro marks on option papers at the moment).

    They’re making the exams easier from September by adding 20 professional marks to all of the option papers so I don’t think interest will wane and this will massively improve the pass rates.
