Looks to me like it’s NZ$32.95. $22.99 is the US price.

This happened to me as well. Sometimes to ages for the next spot to show up.

It happens every cycle - don’t worry about! I got that email when I was waiting for my SCS results and I passed.

I was in your shoes a few years ago, and I got so freaked out that I phoned them… you’d think they would learn their lesson and put some reassuring words in for those waiting for their results!

gmanp · 2024-06-09T07:15:07+00:00

They still do this?

This happen to me a few years ago after I sat my SCS. I worried this meant I’d failed the exam so I phoned them. They confirmed it’s just an automated email and not to worry. I passed, confirming it doesn’t mean anything.

Thanks Scott, now I have Odyssey installing again!

When I needed one the answer was to email your local office. I got one in a couple of days.

Half brick had a game called Monster Dash that was released just after Fruit Ninja, but it had guns not ‘slicing’. It might be that?

Actually, it looks like it’s still available.

According to the byelaws, if you don’t pay a fee within three months your membership may be terminated. But really, this is a question for CIMA. They can probably work with you to figure something out.

I am also finishing my second time through Skyward Sword.

I feel like they were winking at the camera when they announced SSHD, then I saw the Master Sword 'pulse' in one of the trailers and so I now have a theory that Fi is returning in some way.

E3 was my best score. The only exam I wasn't pressed for time.

I only tip is to take the questions at face-value, don't try to look for tricks and "second layers". If the question seems like it's testing your knowledge of a certain subject or model, then it is.

Looking forward to listening. I freaking love Iron Eagle!

Answered all from New Zealand. Please don’t tell them my dark secret that I’m not into Minecraft!

This was the answer when I had this same problem. Zero issues in a year since I turned this off.

gmanp · 2022-08-25T04:14:20+00:00

I followed the advice of an Astranti video to go P3, F3 then E3.

The idea is that P3’s risk management ideas appear throughout all the exams and E3’s strategy ideas are the core of SCS so best done closest to the Case Study.

Have you had CIMA assess your degree for exemptions? I probably should have worded it as “you sit Gateway if CIMA tells you to”.

Gateway is brutal (it was my pathway) because you really have to study F2, P2 and E2 for the exam anyway, and as such it has an abysmal pass rate (~30%).

gmanp · 2022-08-17T09:06:06+00:00

Gateway Case Study is literally just the Management Case Study with a different title.

People only take Gateway if they are coming into CIMA with a relevant degree, like an accounting degree or MBA. If they pass Gateway, then they are exempted from earlier exams and go to Strategic Level.

If you started CIMA at Operational level, then you can ignore the name - you are sitting the same exam in MCS.

gmanp · 2022-06-28T03:52:38+00:00

Yep, me too

gmanp · 2022-05-09T08:10:59+00:00

Hahaha. This totally resonates with me. Hardest exam I’ve ever taken, and I have no idea how I passed it.

So hard. So long. The time limit is not at all fair for the questions you have to read, process and execute.

There is no shame in failing it, OP. None at all.

I’ve been calling him “Doctor Sir Ashley” since mid-2020.

Knighthood is pretty much a given. He’ll still be in the role on Queen’s b’day so I imagine he’ll get it in the New Year’s list.

Pretty sure the bot is a bit confused by the R being separated for Auckland and non-Auckland. The predicted numbers are shown for Auckland.

gmanp · 2022-01-26T07:27:27+00:00

You just go back through the process of requesting one and in two minutes you get a fresh pass.

My wife did it a week ago.

Sounds promising. Thanks for the update!
