1) I'm doing 2+3 in a couple of weeks (got all the study material yesterday). I know they allow 30 mins for each module of cemap 2 but can you move on if you're done before that? Trying to sneak it in at lunchtime and I always whizz through exams! It's a computer based one. Also, is it quite easy...

Trying to sneak it in at lunchtime and I always whizz through exams! It's a computer based one. Also, is it quite easy compared to one (which I did a year ago).
2) I am thinking of moving into financial advising/planning as the mortgage market is so crap at the moment. I'm doing my full cemap jsut because I'm part way through it and I need it to get into FA.
Am I better to get a trainee position with a bank (although not sure I want to be tied) or a large FA organisation?

    When hell freezes over at this rate. When I get signed off as competent at GI which feels like it is taking forever. I'm sooo bored at the minute. I think I may need a career break ?

    How you getting on?

    We're busy in my office but not really me personally selling wise IYKWIM. Our office is very - mortgages with protection added on. Because I can only do protection it's quite hard as we don't get people looking for it on it's own.

    Also I think because I'm the junior here, clients don't want to deal with me if they can see someone who dealt with them before and we have quite a loyal client base - not lots of new people unless they are getting mortgages too - which I can't do [V]
