I failed the first time on my multiple choice through the FTA. Then on my next go I opted in to the revision session in the morning before the exam and passed with flying colours. I think doing that little bit of revision with a tutor beforehand really helped me.
Just to add I did my course fully online and my only classroom lessons were just before each exam. See if they will offer you a revision session before the exam 😁

Try the drivers cpc multiple choice study I did the DVsa one for hgv after I got my TM and there’s a lot that crosses over you can do it in sections and redo incorrect answers (or all of it)

ah ok, it was 11 years ago since I done mine and the format has all changed. I am sure I read somewhere that ocr are not doing the CPC after 2021.

I must say I went into my exam day having completed many of the previous 2 years worth of test papers many times. My way of doing it was:-
If I know it then excellent, answer and move on and with the others then a process of elimination. In the statements that followed in the second a/b/c/d there was hopefully something there you just know is incorrect so eliminate it (basically you’re looking for the wrong answer and you know there’s 3 of those) but your odds have gone from 1 in 4 to 1 in 3 and hopefully you’d get to a 50-50 at worst or even the one correct statement is left.

Enterprise training are running their training online. They have an online multi choice practice exam section as well as the daily zoom lessons which you can sit as many times as you like. I passed both sections with them first time by spending as much time as I could doing the practice exams over & over until it got to the stage I knew the answer before I had read all the question

be aware different award bodies question in different ways, check that the practice papers you use are the same exam body. Make sure you read the questions and understand what it is asking you to do. Take the 2 hrs if you need to and don’t change you’re mind. I know the multi choice can be hard there isn’t any easy answer for me to give you.

Passed the case study first attempt in September but failed MC by 1. multiple choice paper was a bugger, but I managed to get 75%. Chatting with the invigilator afterwards and the pass rate that day had been 20%! Keep rereading the notes and hope. I found the summaries at the end of each chapter in the FTA book really helpful. Also there are a couple of multiple choice papers on YouTube that you can listen to and answer.

You've passed the hardest bit! The answer is in front of you. The trick is to read the question. Read it again. Read the answers. Read them again. Chances are you can eliminate at least one, probably 2 answers. Get the questions you know completed then go back to anything you're not sure of.

I have a similar experience, the question I have is do any of the training providers provide unlimited access to a multiple choice question database so you can just keep going over the questions to support the material/knowledge you have learnt?

the zoom lessons are very well set up too. Weekly schedule with around 5 subjects at different times of the day. I think I lived on zoom for a good 6 weeks

awesome, I’ll reach out to them tomorrow. Thank you
the zoom lessons are very well set up too. Weekly schedule with around 5 subjects at different times of the day. I think I lived on zoom for a good 6 weeks
sounds up my street
I would never have done it if it was classroom based. I needed the flexibility of the zoom sessions to work around my work & home life

It’s just reading, retaining and recalling information for the multiple choice. There is no easy way around unfortunately.

There is no easy way but MC questions are normally the little finer details and facts. A general understanding is obviously required but it’s about learning things like the colour of road signs in Europe or how many weeks paid maternity. I make flash cards containing the basic facts a figures, anything that feels like a little fact they may ask a question on.
It’s more about exam technique and remembering than skill in all honesty - I think the skill is having the exam/ remembering technique!
Flash cards work for me as I’m a visual learner but if you learn by listening, you could make yourself a recording of lots of facts and figures. Figure out how you soak in facts and tailor your revision around that. Hope that helps a tiny bit! 😍

Anyone taking their tmcpc exams please make sure you know who your examining body is. There is no benefit to revising OCR for a C&G exam the two are very different best advice I can give you is use the material you have been issued by your trainer

Always looks above level 3 and open book description is misleading. There isn't time to look at the allowed material.

If any of you guys got the one half of the TM CPC with OCR, and need to do the other half (whether MC or CS) you will need to use a SEGA centre, cos they are picking up where OCR withdrew and CILT or C&G won't do it. I would suggest Friendberry for this, they looked after us well. They had some practice exams (both MC or CS) and did ok by us. They are also really flexible if you need a full training or just a days revision. Check them out. Good luck guys, hope to see you on the other side of the TM exams !
