D 2025 will have a long D2 again

After two years of D papers with a 55-mark D1-part and a 45-mark D2-part, the D paper of 2025 paper will again have a D2 part that is longer than the D1. Some candidates will appreciate the shift, others may like it less... In either case, take it into account when you prepare! Also, the D1 questions will have an average value of 9 marks, whereas last year the D1 questions has an average value of 11 marks: as the D committee has indicated that they observed that candidates seem to appreciate (i.e,., score better) on long questions, this may make the D1 more difficult than the last two years.

The Schedule in the EQE 2025 has been published on the EQE website. It provides:

Thus: 

  • the two D1 parts are relatively short
  • there will be five (5) D1 questions for a total of 45 marks: 
    • 3 questions for a total of 24 marks in D1-1 (1h 25 min)
    • 2 questions for a total of 21 marks in D1-2 (1h 15 min);\
  • the D2 part will be 55 marks and 3 h 20 minutes
