That's the problem, it's so random you don't know what to study. I read through my MK2 books prior to, and I don't remember anything I read actually being on the test! Oh well....good luck to everyone else who took the test!

I would think thats just a rumor man 390 people is a huge percentage for Qualified 3rd's to be taking a Nov off transfer season SWE. Considering about 200 took the May SWE. Thats over a quarter of the MK3's in rate and thats counting the FNMK rate non rate's. So deffinately more than a quarter of actual thirds.

Thats on the lines of what I was thinking. But like I said it was just a rumor that I heard for someone who heard from someone else. So who really knows, just have to wait and see.

Um..yeah - well i am glad i am not the only one that felt completely stupid. I opened the test book and was like... WHAT? i challenged a few question though... did anyone else? This was my first SWE and i did see my score and it was about as bad as i felt it would be.
I studied my *** off but unfortunately no one told me i had to find the most obscure MK information. I would say about 10% was from the actual books. Oh well i am just hoping that they just clear the list again.

How did you get a 70. You should have gotten a 50.
