The Meteorology exam was extremely difficult. I think even someone who had studied the subject for a considerable amount of time would have struggled. I believe the CAA have probably brought in a consultant who doesn't realise the level at which this subject is taught. Even one mark questions were made into something beyond the normal boundaries (eg im sure most people who took the met exam knew that large supercooled water droplets create clear ice and small rime ice ....but even those questions were made into much longer versions!)

I would say that the exam was not of a normal standard expected and like the performance exam from previous months should be looked into....i know everyone from our exam room found it extremely difficult with most thinking they have probably failed.

Any other opinions from the rest of the country appreciated!
