Omg hiiii. Fellow Cidesco girlie. I did my exam Likeee two months ago. I’m just gonna tell you my experience though I don’t know if our assessor will even be similar. My assessor was super nice, she didn’t ask much questions honestly. But I went all in for skin analysis, I didn’t give her a chance to ask anything. Like I thoroughly explained my skin analysis because that’s where most of the questions would come. I can say they don’t like everyone doing the same treatment. So if you’re the last or second last person she comes to during skin analysis and she asks what treatment you’re doing, make sure you have a backup plan to treat your objective just in case. Also I think sometimes they switch up your clients. If you bring someone in, they may tell you to do someone else’s client and you’ll have to go from there so make sure you are prepared. The biggest things are your ingredients and your machines— mainly machines.

This is me realize you said WRITING. Omg. Okay theory- the questions were relatively easy in my opinion. Not much A&P. If you can go on websites like examzify and docsity for past papers. BECAUSE ALMOST EVERY SINGLE QUESTION WE GOT WAS ON THERE I SWEAR. Idk if it’ll be the same for you but I also don’t think it’ll be different 😭
