hey,
it may appear that way due to there being an extra binder worth of content.
My big concern was the 3 big exams (AGK, perf and PofF) all on the 1 day during the mod 2 exam week but looking back on the course there is a lot of cross reference of material in the subjects you will see as you go through it.
Personally, I enjoyed mod 2 a lot more, even the brush up - you kinda know what to expect.
Wouldnt necessarily say mod 2 is more difficult than mod 1.
Good luck with it
