| schestowitz | |The point raised by IPKAT on timescales is important. This review was started in 2018, it is now 2021. Candidates have gone through three exam years in this time. What timescales are on the PEB to respond to this review? To make changes? I suspect absolutely none and this will be ignored by PEB, much like the earlier Middlesex review.| | Oct 26 00:47 |

| schestowitz | As far as I can see, there seems to be a recommendation for more exams! exams! for candidates. Suggesting for all to move towards PEB foundations examinations which has about 7 exams. Suggesting that candidates should also do FD2 and FD3 even though these are the same exams as their corresponding EQE papers A and B. | Oct 26 00:48 |
| schestowitz | Why the addition of more and more exams. Don't we already have enough in this profession? | Oct 26 00:48 |

| schestowitz | I have been quite dissapointed - this was the chance to radically shake up the patent examination system, where many of the exams particularly FD4 are not fit for modern day practice/purpose. | Oct 26 00:48 |

| schestowitz | My view is that this report is pretty much pointless. There is no commitment for CIPA, IPREG or PEB to take on board any of the recommendations and if they do, I fear they will only cherry pick recommendations that they like. | Oct 26 00:48 |
| schestowitz | The recommendations are pretty weak as they are but it is a small step forward in reforming the professional exams. | Oct 26 00:48 |

| schestowitz | I'm glad they've decided to do a webinar. Frankly, some of the recommendations really could do with explanation especially around getting rid of mark schemes. It's going to take some persuasion. | Oct 26 00:48 |
