*onezeroonethree, systems is probably the hardest exam and it's better doing it last, as it involves a few topics.
Self studied it... didnt find it as bad as people thought although my score was average. A mate who self studied with me went pretty well...
having said that it was easy because it was damn interesting. the turbine stuff i couldnt stop reading into and in general all the other topics were fun to read
now flight planning... thats hard. its math
and its boring and not fun. i get suicidal thinking about it... and im contemplating self studying it
