The pass rate for the 2013 EQE Opposition
paper C was 43.6%. A further 11.8% obtained a marginal fail that can be
compensated. In comparison, the 2112 opposition paper’s pass rate was 33.1%.
The increased pass rate does not seem to
reflect better preparation by the candidates, but could be the combined effect
of a number of factors : shorter paper, less documents, less claims, less
attacks, all leading to less stress so more candidates could manage the
statement of opposition in the given time.
We can hope that the examining committees will
take due note, and maintain a paper of the same « density » next year.
The message for new and repeating candidates
for paper C is clear : the opposition paper has been reduced to manageable
size and there are less opportunities to go wrong. It follows that you have a
better chance that your preparations will be rewarded by success
