New to this thread guys - Hi all! Had my aptitude tests on the 18th of April and got my "pass" letter a couple days later - just waiting for an interview date now and hoping for the best! This is my first time round - this is the first apprenticeship that i've applied for - but all is going well so far! How is everyone else getting on?
xperty - what did the sheet say on it exactly? Glad to see you have passed this time round, i have read all through the posts, including yours from ages ago!
heres hoping, but feel as if i've not done the best I could have done on the Mechanical one..
I sat my test in Grangemouth on the 26th
Im 17 .... in 6th year at school
Yourself? Dean
Nice to meet you, Im 16, 17 in September, 5th year at school so you're up one xD
I passed all 5, but was on the pass mark for the mechanical one (17 out of 30). The others i did really well in, 95 percent and above if i remember right! When i sat them, i thought i was doomed with the mechanical, but i scraped by :P
Thats Great man! Did you email Maureen Hunter for that? Also, what course did you apply for?
Great News
My application got passed onto ECITB and I emailed Allison , administration for ecitb about it She was great, and replied pretty much within half an hour each time
My frst choice is instrument & control Second is mechanical Third is process Lasytis electrical

Haha Allison Ballantyne, I'm related to her, never met her though xD Mine are:
Process Instrument and Control Electrical Mechanical
So looks like we wont be at the same college if we get our first choices :P

you may think that we wont be at same college, but you may be surprised..
My friend got on the course last year, and he said that fourth valley (FALKIRK) are trying to make it so that next year the people doing instrument and (process(I THINK)) go there also
Not 100% sure if it will happen though
Although if you get your 2nd choice and i get first we may be

Wahey! To be frankly honest, out of all the disciplines, i am open to whatever they think i would be best suited to, as my only information really is the 4 paragraphs on the website - I will go where i am needed to be, and work hard at it.
Isn't process always in Aberdeen? Im from there so it would be easy for me :P

ahh that would make sense if they were to put you doing process.. would save them from paying for accomodation for the course.
Maybe its electrical thats moving up from Middlesborough then
Im on the same boat as you here, dont mind what I do at all
though since I've been moved to ECITB. THey only provide training for: Instrument(offshore) Mechanical(onshore) Electrical(onshore)
I seriously have no idea what'd happen, but as I said... either way Im happy
Now just time for the interviews... gotta get these exams past first though

Yeah you know it! What exams you sitting this year? Im kinda looking forward to the interview at the same time as dreading it, because my worst fear when applying to this was the possibility of rejection without them even meeting me for themselves, and i think i'll be alright, if i think it through :P You good with interviews?
