Wot, the deadline for tests isn't even over yet m8

You might be talking about the spring week or summer this thread is for neither of those.

For the guys that have completed the tests, is it you get X amount of time to do 30 questions or is it X amount of time per question? Please could you shed some light on the structure?

Numerical = 24 Questions in 20 minutes = 50 seconds a question
Verbal = 24 questions in 18 minutes = 45 seconds a question

I've just flunked both tests; this was not a good week to get a fever. I'd been waiting the best part of 2 years to apply to Steps to Success and it's gutting that all of the effort I put in along the way culminated in getting a debilitating illness during test week. That's the way things go I guess.

Good luck to everyone else, the tests aren't too bad if you've done your practice :biggrin:

If you can get proof from a doc, you can send it to HR and they will reconsider.

By the time I'd get an appointment I'd have finished recovering, thanks for the suggestion and good luck in the rest of the process!

Just an update.

Did both tests and, surprisingly, I found the numerical really straight forward. I'm not worried about it in the slightest. The verbal was a bit tougher (words upon words) but doable. Hopefully we find out soon!

Good luck peeps.

Good luck to everyone, found the verbal much easier than the numerical.

I haven't, but I kinda think that they'll stick to what they said, if not I expect they'd probably send out a 'don't panic' email. I got the email about technical problems with the tests at 8.10pm last tuesday, so it seems they're pretty good with keeping us informed
