One more thing 747jetdriver. I see from your posts elsewhere on Pprune that you have been bitching about this for the better part of spring. Would it not be better spent time to use your energy to get the JAA, rather than threading in water hoping to change the system. You could do this pretty fast, I know several people in your situation who directed their energy into getting the JAA ticket and ultimately a job in Europe, instead of being upset about the system.
I truly do understand your frustration, but lets face it, you are better off taking a few months to study and sit these exams. They are realy not that much different from the FAA ones.
Good luck
