I have just received the new materials for Level 4 and have started working through them. One concern I have -- and maybe you can shed some light on it -- relates to how the tasting descriptors for various grapes/wines contained in the text mesh with the SAT. In particular, there is the suggestion that the SAT tasting scale is moving from 5 to 3 descriptor -- low, medium, high. I have noticed throughout the text, there is a constant reference to medium to medium+ (at least in the Bordeaux chapter, which I am working through currently).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I understand there will be some leeway provided by adjudicators, but that is small comfort given the nebulous &amp;quot;no right or wrong answers&amp;quot; I have received from the WSET in the past.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Not in any way trying to be difficult or cranky, but given the cost of the diploma courses, it would be helpful to have a more definitive explanation, if you can provide that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Grateful for your input.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.guildsomm.com/aggbug?PostID=16815&amp;AppID=8003&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Advice for WSET Students</title><link>https://www.guildsomm.com/public_content/features/articles/b/vicky-burt/posts/wset-students-advice</link><pubDate>Sat, 02 Nov 2019 11:34:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8277e151-5ba9-4335-93f0-6f497ffb8dc4:64b60b05-c3c2-4031-9440-daafc20c2c89</guid><dc:creator>Lukus Troyer</dc:creator><slash:comments>4</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;My question, and pardon my ignorance, is whether it is required to take the courses in sequence or can, for example, level one be skipped and level two attempted. &amp;nbsp;In my case I&amp;#39;ve already completed CMS course one, and feel confident that I can attempt WSET level two.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks so much!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.guildsomm.com/aggbug?PostID=16815&amp;AppID=8003&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Advice for WSET Students</title><link>https://www.guildsomm.com/public_content/features/articles/b/vicky-burt/posts/wset-students-advice</link><pubDate>Fri, 01 Nov 2019 22:07:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8277e151-5ba9-4335-93f0-6f497ffb8dc4:64b60b05-c3c2-4031-9440-daafc20c2c89</guid><dc:creator>Rakesh Shetty</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.guildsomm.com/aggbug?PostID=16815&amp;AppID=8003&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
