Comments:
For the WSET Level 2 course, it is difficult to do better, every year we get 100%…
For the WSET Level 3 course,
Tasting: it is difficult to do better, we get 100%…
Multiple choice exam: we improved 7% from 92% to 100%
Short Answers exam: although our success rate is 20% above the WSET Global average, we have performed significantly less at 67% (instead of 92% the year before). The WSET Global rate has dropped considerably too and went from 70% last year to 56% this year.
Pledge: We will make sure in the 2016-2017 academic year that we will improve this situation. Short written answer are not factual recall; they are about an application of knowledge and understanding of a subject area.
Congratulations to all our (brilliant) students!
In Vino Veritas!
