Thumbs down CAA General NAV Exam 4th of March 14

Having sat this CAA (EASA) Exam yesterday I found it incredibly tough and was unable to complete in time. I was however not alone!

The Exam consisted of 60 Qs and 94 marks (normally 80 marks) owing to a large increase in 2 or 3 mark calculation questions and significant decrease in 'one off' theory Qs.

Background: I am an integrated student at one of the big three UK flight schools training towards an ATPL. Out of all the students siting the exam yesterday 83% failed to finish. All of us had previously passed all other Mocks and Tests in our subjects to date.

You never know we could get lucky and pass but I highly doubt it!

I was just wondering if anyone else sat this exam yesterday and had a similar experience? I would be particularly interested in hearing from those at other flying schools to determine if it was just a bad exam of if we were just underprepared?

Thanks in advance and PM me if you would rather not post.
