assuming it's standard CS (which it probably is), it will be 7 for of the three questions to a total of 21 on this scale:

1.

No positive evidence was demonstrated

2.

Minimal demonstration - Limited positive evidence was demonstrated

3.

Moderate demonstration - Moderate positive evidence was demonstrated

4.

Acceptable demonstration - Adequate positive evidence was demonstrated

5.

Good demonstration - Substantial positive evidence was demonstrated

6.

Strong demonstration - Substantial positive evidence including some evidence of exceeding expectations at this level

7.

Outstanding demonstration - The evidence provided wholly exceeds expectations at this level

(4 is a pass, and it seems we can't see the individual score for each question)

Not yet! They said mid may didn't they so I am hoping for this week. Does anyone know why they don't advertise this fast track at the same time as the other fast streams?

Thanks for responding!

But yes I was thinking the same because they said the week of the 17th of June they’ll be giving out the offers. And I’m sure the AC will run over a few days. I wonder how much time they will give us to prepare!!

But yes hopefully they respond today!

On the email it suggests the written assessment could be in a group format so I've no idea what to expect! I can't see that they've done it as a group previously, can you?

I feel like all the previous forums I've trawled through from past years suggest it is individual - I wonder whether they just get you online together so we can show ID and prove we are the ones actually completing the assessment? I wonder if the role play is a group thing?

I hope so as an online group written assessment will be tough compared to an in person one. I've seen role play help online suggesting it is just you, the assessor and an observer as well. I've given evidence in Court for my job and it didn't feel as stressful as this experience!

Which day are you completing yours? Due to work I've had to go for Wednesday. I'm away the following week so it looks like I'll be doing my second part on holiday!
