I think with the salary you are paid you have to use that for your accommodation near to the office. I think KPMG pay for your uni accommodation but not for your work. �� I don't know if that's correct that's just how I understand it to be ��

Hey i'm looking to apply too, having spoken to a representative at University of Birmingham Open Day, you have to apply on the kpmg careers page, however the 2015 application isn't open yet so we have to wait. Do you have any idea where i could get practise for the tests ?

I'm nervous too but if we really can't do them and struggle with them then you've got to think that it isn't for us 😊

Has anyone looking at the Durham one found if it had opened yet? I've been looking every few days since it was supposed to open on the 22nd and still can't find anything. As for Birmingham/Exeter, Birmingham is supposed to start on the 8th, and Exeter the 15th. Hope that helps guys :biggrin:

As for practice tests, I've looked at a few, they take a bit of time to get around their style of question but once you run through them it's essentially just some mental maths. I choke multiple choice questions though so it'll be a nervous wait
