Does anybody know when we get he results for these tests? I didn't enjoy the deductive reasoning one but I thought the analytical one was ok, I put one answer in wrong though even though I'd worked out the right answer, a nightmare when you can't go back and change it!

I've had a reply back from graduate recruitment. As I didn't click on the individual tests, the link hasn't been activated so I'm okay.

That's awfully far away!! I wish they would just put us out of our misery; I assume the test results are automatically calculated so they could just give us the results straight away.

They could tell you how you've scored but whether you progress or not is based on how well you've done compared to everyone else so they can't generate the results until everyone has done the test.

If I got feedback saying you got 70% of them right, I'd probably be worrying more up till results day thinking is that good enough? It'd be a decent score but when so few people get through to the next stage and since everyone you are competing against has done well to get this far.

If I've got no feedback, in my head I could have scored 100% and set the world record for fastest completion time.

Has anyone who sat the tests had a confirmation email to say they've done them? I haven't.

I didn't either.. But I have had confirmation that my test scores have been saved (as I emailed to request a reset, having done the tests a day before they officially opened). So I'm sure yours have too.

Okay so I don't need them to send me anything it will have saved?

I'm thinking of applying next year. Is it possible to apply for this scheme and the fast stream at the same time?

Yes, plenty of people on here have, including me.

Hi Guys!

Congratulations to all those who made it to Stage 2.

I have a couple of questions, hoping someone can help :h:

I'm looking to purchase both the deductive reasoning and analytical reasoning from Job Test Prep, however, there are so many numerical test packs.

Here is the link:
https://www.jobtestprep.co.uk/numerical-reasoning-test

Which one is the best one to buy for stage 2?

There is only one deductive reasoning pack so I'll be getting that too.

Also, which test comes first for stage 2?

Thanks in advance :smile:

Thanks for getting back to me.

Are you purchasing just the deductive test?

@moq1991 - did you still want to split?

Hi all,

Does anybody know whether HMRC can change the location preferences on my application?
I submitted my application a bit hastily, not thinking much of it but would really like to change my locations now.

Thanks if anybody can help me out !

How similar are Inductive Reasoning Tests to the tests we have to do for stage 2 HMRC?

Hi,

Hope you get well soon.

@abc.xyz already purchased it today and we have done a 3-way split for the Deductive test. Not sure if it is too late to add you to the mix.

Hi, hope you're feeling better. If you still want to split please let me know. The third person never got back to me and I've already purchased the deductive test. Thanks
