Sorry for type error...I plan to sit for Mod1&5, not 7.
The reason for failing in Mod 5 is that time is not adquate. Because I got the result of TC calcultion and found it unbelievable. So I put too much time on checking calculation progress and did not have enough time for long questions.
Truely, in Jun, I thought I could not pass Mod 2 as I did not know how to do the layout. But to my surprise, I get distinction as last. Maybe I put too much concentration on it.
Mod 1 is a big chanllege for me.It needs adquate preparation, and more work experience I think.

I wrote to IRSE and requested feedback by email. And result arrived by email last Friday: Mod2 distinction, Mod 3 pass, Mod5 fail. A little happy.
Half year learning in this forum helped me improve quickly.Still remember raising lots of foolish questions at first...Thanks for those people who helped me in this forum. I will book 1&7 this year, and keep active here, learning and sharing.
Judging my the reaction last Thursday at the exam review, I am hopeul that in 2011 that receiving results by email will either be the norm or at least an option, so 2010 may have been the last year of the long wait into the Christmas period and beyond.
I think that there was only 1 Distinction awarded in mod2, so you should feel even more happy.
Mod 5 was in general found by most candidates to be one of the easier papers in the exam. I would hazard a guess that you had concentrated your preparation on mod2 & mod3 and took mod5 as a bit of an extra; if this is the top of your priority in 2011 hopefully you would get a much better result next time. Given that you want to do mod1 then I can see the sense though of making mod7 your other paper.
Mod 1 can be found to be extremely difficult and three quaters of those who sat it failed, which may be a new all time low re performance in this paper. Having said that, I know that some relative novices passed it first time around; as ever adequate preparation is key.
