I passed this exam yesterday morning, feel good about this one as it is known to be the trickiest one to pass at level 3. I must say though that 9:30 am is not the best of times to sit an exam, i had to get up at 4ish to make sure my body had the required amount of caffeine. Anybody waiting to sit this one, make sur...

I realise that it is probably just personal preference but having become a member of ICB I have recently decided that IAB is a better home for me and am in the process of becoming an IAB member.
