Thanks everyone.
Sorry for the blatant 'Go me!' post but I'm genuinely surprised and chuffed  If anyone fancies coming round to celebrate, just name a day

It's an accounting qualification. I now have letters after my name which stand for Member of the Association of Accounting Technicians.
I'm basically a glorified bookkeeper, and I have been for years but it's nice to have the paperwork to match the experience, and hopefully I can now teach it too.

AAT = Association of Accountancy Technicians.
Congratulations Vix, I remember all the hard work mum had to put in to her exams to get her qualifications. She doesn't regret it for one bit, they gave her unparalleled opportunities that she hadn't had before.

Thats a difficult exam
Well done! I did a course of accountancy last year. It was not easy! I'm currently going through my exams again this year, and i'm not feeling one bit confident. I don't know what happens if (when  ) i fail again now, quite worried about it. Depressing and stressing me out!

Congrats.
Was also going to ask what AAT meant. Was then going to choose from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aat at random and saw "Congrats on passing some exams in Aquatic Ape Theory!"

Stay confident Alex. I was convinced I'd fail at least one of these. I had trouble revising as my heart wasn't in it, had a sprint just before exam week too.
The first exam decided not to follow the way past papers have gone, which never happens, and I had a migraine for the last exam. I'm still a little in shock that I have passed. The exams are in 2 sections and you have to pass both to get a pass. My friend passed section 1 in all three but failed all section 2's. She's gutted :/ Aquatic Ape Theory! Probs would have been easier :P

Everyone keeps on telling me to stay confident and I'll do better than i think. But honest to god if i had a chance of passing both of these next two exams (I'll hopefully pass one) i would say so, or not say anything and not moan about like i am! I'm not generally pessimistic, this is realism! I'll do them see how it goes, and go talk to my DoS. But i can't afford to retake a year. I'm getting old and getting into more debt. It's time i join the real world if i have to retake a year! Boo hoo... I just don't know where I'm going in life atm, except bumming around and partying (which is fun, but expressedly useless).
