Livin the dream: The people in the course put in the hard yards, I was there with them during and after class studying our asses off. We are not blaming our 'tools', rather the exam we were tested on. There were some super smart and dedicated students in the class. It wasn't just AFT, from what I hear the Melbourne exam had a 100% fail rate (again, from what I hear). If you are a maths wizz I'll explain it in maths terms.

A + B + C = D

A= students ( pretty much a constant)
B= the ASL exam system ( again, pretty much a constant)
C= the exam questions ( which have recently been updated/ re jigged/ etc= new variable, which CASA has claimed has not changed)
D= exam result ( which has also changed dramatically!!!!)

Since D has changed so much, either A, B or C must have changed significantly. A hasn't changed (from personal experience), and from what I know B hasn't either, which leaves C. So CASA, what has changed? A? B? C? Join the dots...

You have to admit that with a failure rate like 93% something has gone pear shaped on CASA's end.
