2011 Results

[PJW]

Definitely agree with you, but we aren't the people doing it and we do not know what problems they are facing.

The latest info given to one candidate when they chased it is:

As to the examinations, the results will be uploaded to a secure area on the website and you will be sent an email in due course with information about where to view these. The results should be collated and ready at the end of December/ early January.

Whether it is worded like this just to discourage more people chasing them when trying to do their day job I don't know. Certainly hassling them isn't going to speed things up, so I think it is best that everyone just tries to be patient

I agree that commiting to a date for issuing results is not the best thing to do, particularly when all the examiners have day jobs and other committments. However, we know the exam results are marked, we all have access to the internet, and it doesn't take 5mins to upload them to the IRSE website.

The IRSE is a small institution with very limited resources. Process needs to be followed and specifying a date is not always the right thing to do.

Be patient and appreciate most of the exam structure is manned by volunteers who give their time for free to better the lives of others. Or maybe someone fancies giving their time to HQ to assist in processing the paperwork?

I fully take your point that specifying a date could lead to problems, especially if the specified date turned out to be unachievable.

I don't think it's at all fair of you to suggest that I'm being impatient or failing to appreciate the work of the volunteers. I seem to remember that my results letter last year arrived on 24th December, so I was fully expecting to wait until about that time again. Unfortunately, the suggestion that was posted on here that the results would be out by now turned out not to be correct. This is of course nobody's fault, and indeed I am very grateful that any information picked up is passed on through this website, but is frustrating nonetheless.

Having re-read my own post, I think your reply was unnecessarily dismissive.

That seems to have done the trick!

Obviously there has been some form of problem as there has apparently been a change of plan since candidates have just been sent an email:

Dear Member,

The results of the IRSE Examination are listed in the attached PDF document, “IRSE Examination Results 2011”, which will not now be published on the IRSE website.

The identifier for your exam result is your examination candidate number.

The result codes are:
D = Distinction
C = Credit
P = Pass
N = Near Miss
F = Fail

A formal letter listing your results will be issued in due course.



Now is anyone going to be brave enough to share their results good or bad on this forum?

Deep breaths everyone.

I'll kick us off.

C in M2
N in M3

Frustrating but not unexpected.

[AdrianM]

C in M2. Pretty happy with that.

More than likely 3 modules for me next year. Or perhaps 2 and then 1. Who knows

[JPM]

D in M2, P in M7 - I'm happy.

[cmcvea]

C in M3
P in M5

chuffed, thanks to all those who helped throughout the Year.

M4 & M6 next year, so keep the help coming!

[Peter]

I'm impressed with the number of C and Ds shown here.

Well done all of you and hope those that did not quite get all they wanted can dust themselves off and have another go soon.

Peter

P in M3 = happy

Thanks to PJW and everyone on here for their feedback and encouragement. I will attempt M2 & M5 next year.
