epi Mock EQEs 2016

The mock EQEs allow participants to attempt an EQE exam under exam conditions. The participants sit the papers in the same order, and in the same time, as the real exam. The exam papers are from previous EQE exams and are chosen for their didactic value. Experienced epi tutors mark the papers. About one month after the mock EQE, the tutors discuss the answers with small groups of candidates. Each participant receives personal feedback on his/her work.
Participants may sit any combination of papers.

Scheduled epi Mock EQEs:
The registration will be available shortly on the epi website. The final selection of the location(s) will be announced after the evaluation of the online registration.
The Mock sessions can be expected to take place in October/November 2016 and the feedback session in January 2017.
