Which means it takes around 2 weeks to get notification of an interview after the test! Good luck spark99!

What would you do with that information? Would it give you an unfair advantage?
Is this test for selected applicants or for everyone?

selected
Thank you! Do you know if that replaces the interview for international applicants?

I believe this year we have to do both. The interview is done by Skype.

well, i really wanna do well in the test and if you think that having a rough idea of whats gonna be asked is unfair then probably all the exams should be conducted according to your thinking procedure, no syllabus, nothing definite just sit and give the test.
I misclicked and got a 7/8 on the test. Is there anyone who were invited to interview with this (or worse) score?

People who have already taken the test didn't have that information beforehand. It should be the same for all candidates - they all want to do well AFAIK.

Hey!
I am an international student. I received an Email regarding a 90 mins admission test as well. Can anyone please tell me what type of questions should I expect?? Are they programming based (Since I have opted for MEng Computing course) or Mathematical questions? Also, do let me know the pattern of the test. My test is on 31st! :smile:
Thank You!!

You should read through the thread since every person on this thread has literally asked the same qs. (I was guilty of it too haha)
Ugh. Just finished my admissions test and did horribly. I'm an international applicant and did not take A levels so I couldn't do some of the questions. Does flunking the test means I have 0 chance now?

I doubt it; if you were offered to take the online test, I'm sure you caught at least one of the admission officers' attention. Don't stress too much and try to carry on with life for now. It really helped and I got an interview invite shortly after.

Good luck!
