really hope they dont move the exam to CBT, ruins the fun of it.

Dont understand the “we work on computers it should be done on computers” line of thinking. First of all you still arent getting your score right away, second of all the exam isnt building a model its theoretical. I stare at a computer all day id much rather have the booklet in front of me and its much easier to work out problems there then be constantly looking back and fourth to a screen.
