I know that they went before Council last week but also that there may be a bit more of a delay before being sent out because of personal illness - do not forget that the IRSE is very dependent upon volunteers to undertake many activities.
Overall I hear that the results across many if not all modules are disappointing with lower pass rates than 2014 so statistically the chances aren't good; however as ever some have done well so bucking the trend.
I don't think people should delay in studying waiting for results; some I know have determined to start studying for another module in 2016 taking the view that if they didn't pass those they took in 2015 then they can either decide to resist that alongside the 2016 ones or revisit in 2017- seems a sensible approach to me.
Peter I know its staffed by volunteers but its still very disappointing that it takes so long- approaching the end of the 5th month- people have lives i.e kids, holidays, careers etc that they have live, and having to think what dates can I arrange study time and exams is hard enough without fully knowing what or even if I will be studying.
The examiners are a fantastic bunch and the blame does not lie with them its with the IRSE- the IRSE has to either reduce the amount of people doing the exam by say having a pre-check as to whether a candidate is of a high enough standard to do the exam which will increase overall pass marks, or the IRSE has to increase the resources if provides for marking exams and getting feedback students!!
Sorry for the rant!!
