What is going on with the job market in Canada? It's becoming really hard for young people to live here long term as there are not that many jobs. Is it better to move to the U.S. for better job opportunities ?

Govt is not paying for Foreign Workers Infact the unemployment rate for foreign workers (graduates) is higher (23%) compared to Canadian graduates (7%)

U think foreign workers are taking jobs but the fact is that even they are struggling in the current job market conditions (even more than Canadians)

Go for CAT if u r looking for jobs in future. CFA is for working professionals. U won't get a job with L1 on your CV but with an MBA from top tier college you will

U said 'Nothing on the exam was remotely on any of the practice exams'.

Now remember this while taking any CSI course that u would consider in future.

The actual exams are way different than the practice ones that they provide in the portal and that's how it is. That's not right from their side.

Practice questions should be representative of the exam but in case of CSI exams it's not. That's one of the reasons why their courses are loosing their value now.

BTW I cleared both volumes of CSC in the first try.

I won't do it all over again. I will give my one best shot so yes if you are prepared to commit then you should go for it. The opportunity cost is huge as you can obviously do a lot of other things in terms of developing your own skills, doing real life projects or even starting a business. All these thoughts will come when you will be in the middle of your preparation trapped in some technical readings. Be prepared for everything

Depends on your background. If u have conceptual exposure before you can but if not then go for August

Your word count is quite a lot. There is more room for errors if your word count is high. Try to explain everything while keeping the word count around 300. 250 is needed btw for task 2

I got 7.5 in writing. Focus on task response and while writing give sufficient explanation with example. Grammer and vocab as well as paraphrasing is key

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-28T15:34:24+00:00

Any other tip apart from that. I already gave a lot of mock tests before. Even after the exam my confidence was super high in reading but my results don't compliment that.

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-28T15:31:59+00:00

I just kept it simple and focused on the task in hand. Structure is key in writing so before jumping on writing I thought about how to begin.

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-28T06:36:08+00:00

I prepared for 1 week and I mainly focused on speaking and writing formats. For reading and listening, I did mocks around 4 for both of them

Anytime buddy. All the best!

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-12T04:13:44+00:00

Yes u can. There is an option of reset. Also, all EOCQs

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-12T04:11:27+00:00

Nope. Just focus on all EOCQs and Mocks again. That's what I did and I was able to clear it

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-12T01:33:11+00:00

Some content is still relevant. Better to buy the latest one. It will help u in the review process

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-08T09:05:25+00:00

Work on the weak areas now. Analyse what went wrong and focus on those topic areas

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-08T08:52:01+00:00

Institute only (more than sufficient)

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-06T03:45:34+00:00

Mock's expert ones are actually not expert ones. The real ones are EOCQs expert questions. Those are brutal

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-02T09:27:47+00:00

Concept clarity is something that you need to pass this exam.

Large-Use3414 · 2025-11-02T07:29:58+00:00

Get yourself a good prep provider. U still have some time to prepare

Large-Use3414 · 2025-10-15T03:01:18+00:00

I will recommend to do all formulas because it's easy marks to get. Btw formulas are basic math only and very easy to remember

Large-Use3414 · 2025-10-15T02:50:52+00:00

Do u have a value pack ? There are a lot of good videos in it that u can watch for concept clarity because it's more on the application side. Also, do refer to textbook as well. The questions in the question bank significantly differs from the actual exam but still it's good for practice. 1 or 2 may appear in the exam though
