With over 30,000 student entrants passing MOS exams each year, becoming a finalist is a terrific achievement. Adam Brennan, a BSc Accounting and Finance student, has claimed one of those precious top spots! Can you do the same?
I was quite shocked… it is an incredible feeling. Competing for MOS has been a really good experience. It is also going to be a really good addition to my CV and help me stand out.
