Hi @msli Possibly for next semester (Nov), certainly not for next week's (May) exam. We just published a new T8 Global Review, such that T1 Global Review and T9 Global Reviews are only "missing." As we have very few gaps, either we will want to start a sequence on T1 Global, or at least as likely, we may instead prioritize new P1/P2 Mock Exams. I suspect the latter (P1 Mocks) may more useful as (T1.) Foundations is currently, really more a small set of component topics (1. governance/ERM which suffers constant reading rotation; 2. CAPM/RAPM/APT; 3. case studies, and 4.), each of which we already have very well-covered, except for ethics; so I don't think it's a begging gap at all.
If Foundations were stronger--in particular, if there were a strong framework reading (which R8 is clearly not) or risk introduction reading (which IFC is definitely not), and/or if some of the definitions were seasoned and consistent (in particular "risk appetite" and related risk terms which creates problems for our more experienced customers, but have yet to settle apparently)--I'd definitely want to write a T1 Global before another P1 Mock, but I want/need the Global reviews to be somewhat robust over time (I need them to be relevant for more than 6-12 months) and, related, anchored in a coherent framework, which is not the case with Foundations currently, so i don't feel like it's screaming for a Global. Because, as of today, I'd be re-drilling component topics for which, in some cases, we've already layered with multiple passes. It's a long way to say, possibly next semester but we are more likely prioritize new Part 1 Mock(s), which of course, will include a Foundations component. Thanks,
