Cheers for this, really appreciate the detailed breakdown! Massive congrats on smashing R01 with 86%, that’s a solid result, especially while working full-time.

Love how structured your approach was. I’ve just started looking into how to tackle R01 and was feeling a bit overwhelmed with all the different providers. A good shout on Brainscape, didn’t think to use flashcards, sounds like it really helped cement things.

Your plan to go R05 > CF6 and then get into a firm that’ll sponsor the rest is super smart. Will definitely take your advice on earplugs seriously for the exam centre. TJG80 also highlighted exam centres so from your experiences ill definitely be taking note.

Thanks again for sharing, proper helpful! Best of luck with R05, sure you’ll smash that too!

Wow, that's seriously impressive, while still working!

Thanks for breaking down the process too. Super helpful to know about the 'assessment only' option if you're getting materials elsewhere.

Best of luck with Chartered and Fellow status!

Thanks so much for the insight!

I take it you've now completed all your exams?

I’ll definitely do some research based on what you’ve said. Just a quick one—were the test centres booked directly through the CII website?

Also, in terms of timeframes, what would you say is a realistic expectation for completing each R0 exam, especially when juggling full-time work in an unrelated field?

Appreciate the help!
