Bring on the feedback question and answer tombs for that is what suits their purpose most.
Australia, Canada, USA and many other non european authorities produce some excellent literature and genuine support of instructors and learning and they shame us.
The exams at both professional and private level have neither academic or vocational value, and the integrity of the examinations system across EASA is laughable. Totally unfit for purpose.
