Thank you for your help Sandy thats great.
This was the only question I struggled with in the June 09 exam but still failed part 2

Please make sure your knowledge and understanding is good on the other parts of section 2, I doubt very much that getting this task wrong would be enough to fail the whole section.

Its true

I am confident this was the only section I struggled with, I have done the PEV exam so many times I know ratios backwards and the reasonings behind them, I learn't discounting factors, and I show all my workings, I too thought I'd passed, as I have made more mistakes on other papers and passed. I could kick myself for not appealing I went away and missed the deadline. I feel cheated and there is nothng I can do about it.
