    I generally found the exam much easier than I thought it would be. The MCQ’s were quite easy. I dont think the exam covered the whole syllabus very well but thats my opinion.

    we’ll see what happens – good luck to all 🙂

    I’d be interested to know what people put as MCQ answers, i can remember all of them.

    Me too
    It was ok
    I was sick though since 3 days
    But exam went fine
    I sat this exam first time
    Hoping to pass
    Good luck all

    If you do something like this

    17m x 1.06 x 0.9 * 10 / 12

    You’ll get the required figure 🙂
