No, just complete by April 16th. I thought it was timed too, I re-read the information so many times before clicking day 1 XD


I thought it was timed so rushed it and messed up :frown:
89% and 63%, that's the end of the road for me then...

Try 16% in scenario 1 and 84% in scenario 2..... Kill me now.


what happened in 1?

For the most part, carelessness partly because I thought it was timed. For e.g for the first question i submitted 8 instead of 10 answers :frown:. Im hoping they're lenient or the average is low, otherwise I'm screwed.

Presumably they will be looking at applications as a whole?
If it helps, I got 69% and 42% because my internet dropped out repeatedly and refused to connect and then showed a blank page with no questions...
I did email the team though.
Although several people are saying they've had technical issues and others have had mixed results, so hopefully they'll take this into consideration.

I mean I assume it wasn't timed. It didn't say on the test that it was and it didn't tell us how long we'd taken to do it. I know they said it shouldn't take more than 20 mins but I thought that was just giving us an idea so we could plan when to do it

What % score is everyone getting?


89% 74%
Does anyone know how long it will take after the test's deadline for them to notify us of the next step?

Cool, well done! Good luck to you to, again with only having 2 days to complete it though :rolleyes:


Do you have to submit before moving on to the next set of questions?
79%, 95%.
Praying that this is good enough.

Good luck to everyone else and thanks for the help! Msg me if I can help in any way
84% and 74% ;(
79% and 63%. Was an interesting task, but I'd like to know what the correct answers were!
I wonder whether the process is linear (i.e. so long as you pass every stage you proceed) or if they give you a score for each test and then rank you at each stage to see if you proceed?

Yeah I think there'd be a cut off and the scores won't be used again

Thought the test was an interesting change to the usual bank assessments
