Exam / revision techniques

Clare Christian
Hi,

I have just failed my PDS1 exams and I am feeling disillusioned with the whole programme. The course is such a huge leap from CPP study and i am having real trouble understanding the exam questions and exactly what the examiners expect from you with regards to quotes and case studies etc.

I am in desperate need of guidance on exam technique and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I have read every examiners report available but have not found them very useful.

Any links or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Clare

  • Many thanks David.

    Well i have just had more bad news, after finding out on friday about my results i have now been told that i cannot resit my exam in November. Apparently there was a booklet sent before my exam in May explaining about cut off dates for resits etc. So because my results where supposedly lost in the post and i didnt read the leaflet i now have to wait until May 08 to resit my exam.

    I feel so let down by the CIPD no-one in the exams section were even interested in my plea to actually want to resit rather than give up. How unfair? The exam is in 2months and ICS sort the location etc as far as i am aware all the CIPD have to do is send them the exam paper. Really feel like giving up my whole career in HR which i love and starting again!
