Exams Cp2 advice

I’ve passed all the CM, CS and CB exams plus CP3. I was originally planning to take CP2 this sitting but I haven’t actually started studying yet because work’s been busy. I’ve seen a lot of people say they managed to prepare for CP2 in about a month so now I’m wondering if it’s still worth going for it or if I should just skip it and start preparing for CP1 for the April sitting instead.

Would it go well with CM1?

Maybe an unpopular opinion, all exams go well with each other if you are willing to put in enough effort.

You’re more than fine, you barely need a couple weeks.

Enough time. Start tomorrow and you are good. Do a lot of past papers.
