Hi, I just saw the syllabus changes for the September 2023 exam and it seems there’s a lot of changes but only to the names and moving the topics from one syllabus area to another etc. Will the Opentuition PM notes be amended as a result? I have made notes on the printed lectures notes of opentuition and I don’t want to print the notes again and write everything again. Will there be a need to do as such?
