    Got my letter today guys PASSED!!! Im so chuffed but I am keeping my feet on the ground as I have never done an AC before and am a bit nervous about it. Cheers for all your support, these boards have been a big help in preparing mentally for the challenge. Congrats to everyone who has passed. Unlucky to those who didn't keep the head up. See you all in the AC Boards!!!

    Not for me this time folks and to be honest I have never attained 55 marks doing this exam, 53 this one. Even more credit to those who have gone through to AC, good luck and best wishes.

    Commiserations. I agree, 55 is a beast of a pass mark to hit.

    Back on topic you two, please!:mad:

    Lay down the law PYG!!! But that xzibit thing is pretty funny. I know about ten people who were doing the IST and only one of them passed plus me. Makes me think a lot of people will be disappointed. Does anyone know approximately how many candidates are put out at this stage? 40%?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32 marymulr


    Congrats to all those who passed IST ...

    I'm waiting on my results (a while to go yet) but trying really hard not to second guess results and percentage marks etc.... It's sooooo difficult trying not to think about it !!!

    I called Deloitte today as I too was curious as to what mark I got, they couldn't give it to me over the phone but said if I e mailed the request they would give me the mark. Just got a response to the e mail to say they'll post it to me within 10 days, so if anyone else who has passed is curious that's the way to go about getting your mark

    Congrats to all those who have passed do far.
    Commiserations to all those who didn't.

    Did the peeps who got results early do their test May 6..I wonder if us numpties that have not been informed have failed then?....

    Or am i panicking unduly...............:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 507 ✭✭✭bc84

    Got my letter today a week early...and failed :( by one mark ofcourse!! I really wish they wouldn't give you your mark when you fail that just made it sooo much worse! The real kick in the teeth is there was one question i didn't get time to colour in the circle, even though it was gonna be a guess for all I know that could've been the one that made all the difference :mad: raged!

    What date was your test? Mine was 14th.

    I had a feeling they would be coming thick and fast and early.;). Mine will maybe be here soon then. Not hopeful at all.
