I took the foundation paper and trust me... it's no fun. The foundation exam is almost similiar to the individual exams except that the pressure is greater... I took the foundation exam and while it certainly is a faster way of clearing the certification, I don't really enjoyed the experience. Too stressful.
The paper is divided into three sections which will typically have 50 to 60 questions each. And you would need to pass all three sections before you are considered to have passed the paper. This would also mean that as there are less questions in each section, each question will carry a bigger weightage. This can work both ways... get it right and your scores goes up higher, get it wrong and it also drops more.
