Just a heads up from my recent experience in the CPL MET exam, this aspect of which (see below) I was unprepared for but perhaps those more astute than me were already aware of...?
The exam was not 40 1-mark questions, as i assumed it would be. In my case, it was 30 questions, many of which had 2 marks attached. The 2-mark questions tended to be the more complicated ARFOR questions, especially those involving plotting weather fronts on the PCA / WAC and then answering questions based on ETA at different airfields. There were about 6 of these. There were also some answers that required a calculation to be made and then entered as a number (i.e. not multiple choice). Both of the questions i had in this format related to QNH or altitude.
Hope thats of some help to someone...
Thanks for the information, leancut. It will help remove some of the mystery of the exam. I am also glad to see the more complex questions getting the mark weighting they deserve.
Cheers,
Rich
