That's good. Are you looking to a get a job with them in the long term or are you on a gap year or something?

Regarding the tests and interview, me neither.

Mine is on Friday. Same here, not really sure what to expect. Did they say you'll be doing a functional skills test for english, maths & ICT?

Yup they did. Also a shirt interview after. How are you going about preparing for it? (If you don't mind me asking)

Are you revising for the test?
I'm just going to read their website and practice the predictable questions, what about you?
I have a feeling we will all be having group interviews as all the available interview sessions were at 10 am...

I got A*AAB, but its not all about grades, some of the applicants will be school leavers etc. Out of interest are you planning on going to university/on a gap year?

Yep, I'm taking a gap year, and I'm guessing you are too? Well, I'll be taking my exams at the end of the year to get A*AAA overall because I want those grades, but I won't be attending any of my classes in college. I will be studying at home. I really want to get into a top university, such as UCL/LSE or Warwick for Economics/Statistics.

Yes I am. Unfortunately, I've had to pull out of the application due to unforeseen circumstances.

How did your interviews go guys?

What subjects are you doing? That sounds like hard work, doing some resits while working full time as well as studying for the Business Admin NVQ.

Resitting Maths and Biology, and taking my A-Level Further Maths. Already got the A for Chemistry, so I won't be resitting that. And I want the A* for Maths. Erm, I'll only have 7 exams in the whole year, so I'll be more than prepared for my exams. I guess I'll have to make a timetable for both, and manage both at the same time.
