I sat the second part of the Level 2 in June and my online account says that the results should be published on Sep. 11th. However, the results for the February exam were published slightly late as it was the first time they used the online service I was told. It was driving me mad then as well!

I actually didn't think that one was too bad. I thought paper 1 last year was dreadful mainly cos the LAQs weren't on my better subjects. I did think the shorts were harder this year though.

The Level 2 results will be released during the week ending 11 September. They may released before the 11th, but the intention is that they should be available on our web portal and with examination centres during that week.

Hi Sunflower Vic,
I decided I would prefer to reduce stress levels during revision and sit the exam in two parts. I think it is worth waiting twic - and the second time you are used to it!
I was pleased with my first result and hope that my second exam lives up to it. Although I doubt it as Hort I suited me much better than Hort II.
To be honest, in hindsight I think I put way too much effort into it all and ignoring your social life isn't worth it!

Heya Squirrel
Yeah can understand the sitting in two parts - can concentrate on each paper seperately if you know what I mean. I prefered Hort 1 too. A lot more straight forward somehow and less taxing on my brain ha ha ha See what you mean about social life - I became a bit of a recluse leading up to my exams. My revision even went to work with me too!!! Kept asking my manager to test me on things and got the customers to as well. Just hope its paid off Luckily I'm making up for my lack of social life now though. Glad to hear you did well in first paper. Are you hoping to go on too something else after this or is purely interest? Sorry if I sound nosey - just interested thats all.
Vic

Hi Vic,
It started off as an interest only. However, I have been thinking of a career change for quite some time and finally found something I really want to do. I will start full time training in horticulture in less than three weeks now. Getting really excited. Like you I seem to be especially interested in the botany/plant science/plantsmanship side of things. Less keen on the whole garden design thing.
Hope it all works out for you and that you did well in your exam. How is your gut feeling? Do you think you did well?

Hey Squirrel,
Snap!! 
That sounds exactly like me ha ha ha. It started as interest when moved into my house. Then I was in there one day and thought "I could do this everyday". Its only since doing the RHS course I've looked into it in more detail. Like you, I'm not keen on the design side of things. I just find it repeatative and boring. Where are you training? What course? Good luck. Hope you do well in it My gut feeling is that I've scraped a pass to be honest. I missed a lot of classes in Jan/Feb/Mar cos my dad was poorly bless him. Struggled to catch up a bit. Fingers crossed though. I'll be happy with a pass. If not, I gotta do it again. Took 3 attempts to pass driving test thats how Ilook at it ha ha ha

I am desparate for my results too. I'm scared to death i've failed, though I know I couldn't have revised more than I did. I went through every past paper I could find and i've got to say I found the June exam harder than all of them...perhaps I was just unlucky with the questions...but some questions I know we didn't cover on the course.
