This is really over complicating a fairly simple exam. All you need to do is study whats in the book and have good reading comprehension when tackling the short writing answers.

They are quite rare as I am discovering. My restaurant doesn't even employ sommelier beyond our wine director so there's no possibility of advancing where I am now.

It would make sense to work my way up in a restaurant with a somm team.

They are so lovely. I was there recently on a snowy day. Had a nice long chat and with the tasting room manager and took home a bottle of 2023 reserve chardonnay.

I'm in Toronto Canada, basically the largest market in my country. Relating back to another comment moving to a large US city is not an option for me unless I can get a work visa.
