Topic mastery
Weak spots closedThe RE5 and RE1 are a gate on your career.
You can’t give financial advice until you pass, and a failed attempt costs you time, money and momentum. Most prep hands you a pile of material and a separate mock, then leaves you to guess whether you’re ready. Guessing is the expensive part.

How PassPath is different
A readiness engine, not another question dump
Everything is built around one question: what should you study next?
Know when you're ready
One readiness score, measured against the real pass mark (66% for RE5, 65% for RE1) and built from your own answers, not a guess. You walk into the exam knowing where you stand.
Study only your weak spots
Every exam task is tracked on a colour-coded heat grid, red to green. Adaptive practice points you at your weakest topics, so you study what moves your score instead of everything.
Practice that knows what you know
Exam-style questions closely modelled on the real exam, with a confidence check on every answer. Timed mocks mirror the real format, length and pass mark, then break down where you lost marks per task.
A plan for today, every day
Your daily plan mixes spaced-repetition reviews with focused practice on your weakest topics, so what you learn stays learned and every session moves you toward the pass mark.
