As PJW pointed out, success in the exam is about experience, not just knwoeldge. You are expected to demonstrate that you can apply engineering principles rather than plug numbers into formulae.
By way of encouragement, we have one candidate in our office who now has about 4 years experience in the DO and passed mod 2 the year before last and had a near miss in mod 3 last year (mainly because the written questions were a problem as someone not having English as a first language), so early pass is possible if you are prepared (and have the opportunity) to get a variety of experience and practice. The latter is what this forum is about. When you are ready, feel free to post attempts at questions and get some tips on the sort of areas that you need to work a bit on.
Of course, in theory, you can do all four papers in one year if you are so minded. Many do, but if you are at the start of your career, there is little point in trying to run before you can walk!
