6 Months Change

I don't know if the "12 to 6 months" thing you mentioned is correct. For my third attempt, I got rejected after Stage 1A and also received a 6 month wait period. My first attempt I got into Stage 1B and failed and received a 12 month wait period (this was when they were still doing the WOMBAT instead of the COMPASS).
I don't know if I read it here in this thread or somewhere else but I read that CX is increasing their demand for Cadet applicants, which may be a reason for the change to a shorter waiting period.
