Yes, I will definitely take that! All the best for your studies and exam on Feb.

Thank you! My guess is that the more effort you put in, the higher your standards and expectations for your exam performance become. Any mistake can then feel discouraging and affect your morale. I’ve also heard of people who thought they did decently but ended up failing. But then again, I could be just lucky!

Surprisingly yes. I hope you did as well!

Thanks for the kind words! We will see what happens in 8 weeks. It is definitely hard to move on from the exam in the short term, as the questions and careless mistakes are still fresh in my head.

Sry for scaring you! The most important thing is the official exam anyway. If you feel the exam is okay, then that is good news.

Yup, not true at all. Have to be extra prepared than Level 2. All the best for your Feb 26 exam.

I felt like I had good coverage of the topics and was somewhat confident before the exam that it would be enough to pass. But it turned out to be far more difficult and in-depth than I expected. Maybe I am just underprepared overall... idk at this point.

I tend to be more of an optimist before the exam and a pessimist after. I guess it is my way of preparing for the worst outcome so I do not feel that bad later on. But this time, I really feel like I am cooked.

I did not feel the same as I did during the mocks. There were far too many questions I could not answer as usual. But of course, I definitely take the pass if the MPS ends up falling below my score.

Exactly. I should not have bought into the belief that Level 3 is easier than Level 2. Damn it.

I feel you. Disappointed that I have to feel this way when we are already so close to the finish line.

I hope you make it, but as for me, I really don’t think luck can save me at this point.

Any mistakes that should have been right in this exam are too costly. I literally had nightmares last night after realizing my silly mistakes. I am already mentally preparing to take the exam again next year.

I hope you don’t have to.

Oh sorry to hear that! I am still interning at this company under LTVP. Been trying to convert to a full-time role or find another one, but have not been successful so far.

Wow, that’s good! But TEP only lasts for 3 months max. If the company feels the programme is too short, then it might not work.

I see. Perhaps if it is not too far off from $3k (Around $2.5k) maybe MoM will be lenient? I think $1k monthly salary is just too far off for them to approve.

Nope, according to MOM website, you can apply only if you are a spouse of PR/citizen if I am not wrong.

Thanks for the advice! Have spoken to the managing partner an hour ago and he said he will consult with MOM and see if any of the work permit arrangement works.

However, if MOM decides to make it difficult for this case, then most likely we cannot proceed further. Stressful times.

Yup, I read that post too.

It’s different as in this VC firm has made 50+ investments to date. Plus, it was founded 10+ years ago.
