Update Wednesday 30 March 2005 <BR><BR><b>Saturday 2 April ECR Revision Croydon</b><BR>This is only three days away, so anyone wanting to come should contact me urgently as there are only a few places left. £55<BR><BR><b>Saturday 16 April PCR Revision Croydon</b><BR>This session will be looking at PCR and most students have now paid. There are still some places. £55<BR><BR><b>Saturday 23 April</b><BR>I am available for a revision day in any of ECR, PEV or PCR at any location where the number of students would make such a day viable.<BR><BR><b>Saturday 14 May PEV Revision Guildford area</b> (venue might be Woking Guildford or Cobham)<BR>I have started to ask for confirmation and payment of £55 <BR><BR><b>Weekend May 28/29 Oxford/Headington PEV/PCR</b><BR>PEV Saturday PCR Sunday £55 per day. Overnight accommodation can be provided by the venue.<BR><b>Bank Holiday Monday 30 May Oxford/Headington ECR</b><BR>£55<BR><BR><b>June 4 Chichester PEV</b><BR>£55<BR><BR>I am looking into a possible revision weekend for PEV and PCR in Essex<BR><BR>I am available for a revision day in any of ECR, PEV or PCR at any location where the number of students would make such a day viable on other dates.<BR><BR>But I have not had enough interest so far to schedule in the following:<BR>Sheffield/ Nottingham/ Lincoln<BR>Rugby<BR>Bridgend<BR>Cornwall<BR>Berwick on Tweed<BR><BR>The format of each day is similar, made up of 1½ hrs in the first session followed by a quick break and then another hour, then a short lunch beak and two similar sessions in the afternoon. <BR>Students have found these days useful in the past, and I believe the value that they give is probably more important for the forthcoming exams.<BR>Please note that:<BR><b>ECR will be examined by Les Nightingale this June.</b><BR>This will be his first exam as ECR examiner, so I will be expecting him to emphasise those areas he believes will need to be tested. If you look at this link you will see his guidance which clearly states<BR>â??Candidates and lecturers are advised that the format and content of future papers (June 2005 onwards) is likely to be somewhat different.â??<BR>And<BR>Finally, I would like to remind candidates that they need to develop competence in ALL aspects<BR>contained in the range statements. They should not rely on simply revising those aspects that<BR>have been examined so far, and assuming that these will always form the content of the paper â??<BR>they will not. The concept of margin of safety, for example, has not so far been examined but<BR>assuredly will be in some future paper.<BR><BR>See page 2 and page 3 of this PDF file for the full report.<BR>http://www.aat.co.uk/docs/centres/Recording_and_Evaluating%20.pdf<BR><BR><b>PEV will be examined by Andy Royle this June</b><BR>This will not be his first exam as PEV examiner <b>but it will be the first PEV exam</b> without MCV. What this means is the PEV exams until now have been limited in what can be examined, syllabus topics that were not in the MCV syllabus could not be examined in earlier papers, but can be now.<BR><BR><b>PCR will be examined by John Watts this June</b><BR>This will not be his first exam by any stretch of the imagination as he has been examiner for the subject matter on this paper since it appeared as Budgetary Control very many years ago. But just as for PEV, there are minor differences between the PAR and PCR syllabuses (syllabi) and June 2005 will be the first time PCR will be examined alone. <BR><BR>It is because there are changes that will appear in the June 2005 exams, that merely looking at past exam papers may not prove as useful as it has done for the past couple of years. And, why I recommend that students studying at home should consider a revision day.<BR><BR>For further details please email me (rather than replying to this posting)<BR><BR><BR><a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="mailto: sandy.hood@chichester.ac.uk ">sandy.hood@chichester.ac.uk</a><BR><BR>----------------------------------------------------------------------<BR>Disclaimer<BR>The revision services offered by individuals in this forum do not constitute part of the formally approved NVQ/SVQ provision of AAT approved assessment centres.
