Hi
Just a quick question - I have been reading about ICB exams for a few days now.  Just wondering how quick you can sit the first 3 exams - from my understanding I could register and sit the level 1 online pretty quickly -and then apply for the next 2 straight away?  As there are not fixed exams times - I could get this done quickly?  I did a lot of ACCA exams a while back (but no longer a member) - but too long ago now to qualify by exemption.  I have worked in a relevant role for 10+ years (employed) - but have been offered some bookkeeping work on a SE basis - so looking to sort out MLR etc - and seems a good way to do this with the ICB by getting to Associate level and getting the practice certificate.  I am kind of presuming that I should be familar with the content - having looked at the syllabus for the levels 1 and 2 I think I am.  Rather than apply via exemption I would like to do it by exam - but just wondered if I could do this in a matter of weeks if I put my mind to it - so I could get working quickly!
Any advice appreciated.....

The Manual Level II might take a couple of weeks to get a booking at a Pearson Vue centre. The Computerised Level II you could get sent out next Friday and post back on the Tuesday - but it might take three weeks to get marked. I'd suggest spending £5 for each of the mock exams for Manual Level I and Manual Level II first though.

Hi. ICB have online mock exams available for level 1,2 and 3 manual. They cost £10 each but we have had nothing but positive feedback from our students. The paper mocks are still ok but a few things have changed since the last one was produced. The online mocks provide a better insight into the actual exam. You also get your results straight away.
