Dear all
I wonder if you can give me some suggestions.
I am currently doing Level 3 ( two exams to go). I am planning finish Level 3 at the end of March this year. As the new syllabus lunches in September 2016, I wonder if I choose old syllabus or new one for Level 4. I am a full time worker, and taking distance learning at this moment and will do the same for Level 4. My job is getting busier from June to August each year, so over the three months, I possibly don't study as much as the other months. For Level 3, I take two exams on the same day rather than one exam a day( I don't want to waste my holiday on exams!), so far so good. I passed 4 exams at the first time.
The old syllabus only lasts until Dec 2017, I did contact my tutor regarding to the new syllabus, she recommends I take the new syllabus. But when I check the new syllabus, there is a extra synoptic assessment for completing whole level. I am hesitating about it. If I choose old syllabus, there is time pressure to pass all exams at the end of December 2017. It could be very stressful.
I know it could be very personal questions, my main concern is, how difficult is level 4 study and is it possible I still take two exams on the same day? If I passed Level 3 in March and start Level 4 study in April 2016, do I have plenty of time to complete Level 4 before old syllabus ceased?
Many thanks for your help.
