CPL Test Failures

Not sure why someone keeps deleting this?? Have looked in archives without success and it seems a good question. First time pass for CPL is apparently 65% (PAT figures). Not sure what stats are for a first series pass (80%?) but thought it would be good to form a record of what people have experienced, any advice for the big day and in the case of any absolute failures what people would have done differently either during training or on the day with hindsight.

It is a good question that may benefit some of us wannabes, I'd like to know more...

Stapleford give stats:

Pass Rates: 2011
  • CPL: 97% first-series pass rate
  • IR: 96% first-series pass rate
Pass Rates: 2010:
  • CPL: 95% first-series pass rate
  • IR: 94% first-series pass rate
Not sure if this is the same across the board though I'd think they're a pretty good basis if correct.

I think the last post gives some reliable statistics and answers your initial question.
The other questions that you ask are very circumstantial and could elicit a myriad of replies so I am closing the thread.
