R06 – What’s involved?

Most people fail R06 by a narrow margin – don’t let this be you!  Firstly, you need to understand the exam, what is involved and how long you have to complete your exam paper.  R06 pulls everything together from R01 right through to R05 and will cover the full financial planning cycle with possibly advice across all the different areas. R06 will test your existing knowledge, your confidence in pensions, taxation, investments and the wealth planning structure.

R06 is a completely different beast from the other R0 exams as it is a written paper based on 2 pre-released case studies.  Don’t underestimate this one – your knowledge, practice and exam technique need to go hand in hand.

How can we help?

In our R06 workshop we are going to help prepare you for this exam so that you can avoid the problems, pitfalls and other common mistakes made by previous candidates.  The R06 exam is designed to test what you can do, and not just what you know.  Our R06 workshop and case study analysis combined, will help you to identify essential information helpful in producing good answers.  Through our analysis we help you to demonstrate good technical understanding of the potential topics that could be tested, through to clear and comprehensive explanations in our workshop of how to apply this technical understanding to your particular clients (exam).

Exam skills

Remember: R06 is an analysis exam

  • It is not how much you write
  • It is all about what you write
  • Have you answered the CII questions?
  • Have you given the examiner a good spread of answers?
  • Have you shown your analysis skills?

Analyse is a more advanced examination skill and requires you to demonstrate a comparison or consideration of the benefits and drawbacks of a certain scenario within your case study examples.  With case study based exams it is essential that your response is linked to the case study throughout.
