This qualification is not as easy as many people think and a lot of electricians say that this separates the men from the boys. The pass rate for this qualification in general is below the 50% mark,

when i did it it was a closed book 2.5 hour written paper + a practical assesment

now its
90 mins exam 6 questions
+ online test
+ practical

It's not f*cking easy..... But I passed :-D Whilst most found the written part the hardest, I actually found the practical part hardest. Just you and the examiner, who is looking over your shoulder the whole time just waiting for you to put a foot wrong!

I thought the AM2 practical assessment was a bit tricky too.

It used to be the C&G C course for sparkies but I think it's called something else now. If you're stuck for time, what about a Part P course?

You can't just walk into a Regs course and blag it. Some background of electrics will be needed. I've just completed a 16th to 17th upgrade course as part of my AP(E) re-appointment and that lasted 3 days. It's been a while since I've done wiring calcs!
