Could someone please enlighten me...why is everyone stressing over answers, noone can predict their results, the exams have been sat...it is over, you only have a month to wait for your results...leave it alone.<BR>I am sure everyone did the best they could, now spend the time chilling out. Technician year will be here soon enough then I am sure we will have plenty to stress over.<BR>By the way, as a matter of interest could someone please enlighten me (again!) on the Technician level, subjects and an over vue of what to expect.

    Thanks for that Shaz. <BR>And in reply to your answer to my other remark, I understand people need to talk about results but nobody has them yet. My point is that speculating answers and comparing what you did in the exams I find makes people dispondant and generally unhappy. As most on this site have only just sat the exams I would say that no one on this site is qualified(yet) to say what answer is right or wrong, therefore would it not be best to try and relax and prepare for the next stage...and from what I have been told is not for the weak hearted.<BR>Anyway, once again thanks for the input on the Technician level and I hope you have a nice relaxing summer.
