It’s doable but true, there’s also usually 250+ students competing for 10-20 places, should go for optom normally as first choice and have SED as a back up

What was the end of year exam like I don’t know what resources to use to prepare for it . The teachers say to only do the formative quizzes but it doesn’t feel like it’s enough and I really don’t want to fail. Can you please tell me eveyhtunf in depth about the exam !!!! :smile:))
