I have to confess that the change in TC calculation format threw me so I didn't do it. That's not to say the change was a bad thing but under exam pressure I cracked and didn't want to risk getting part way through the question and getting stuck.
I agree with PJW about internationally applicability of the exams. Personally it seems to me that the main challenge would be in module 3, where the layout provided seems very clearly to follow GB practice. In other modules at least it can partly be addressed by adding more questions with an 'international' flavour. At the same time, it does seem like the questions in other modules are generally about issues that are relevant in several countries.
From what I've heard about the aspect sequence chart, it was quite a complicated scenario to deal with. Then again, last year's question was just drawing a chart too.
