Click on Information on the main bar. Then on lower right hand side click on participants.

When you edit your profile you change your specialism there. Everyone started as Brighton Finance.

Hi, I have just applied for NHS General Management Scheme for 2012. I am up to the stage were I need to do the online tests.

I am just wondering whether anyone can advise me of a good website to use to practice Numerical Reasoning?

Thanks

Definitely a good plan to do lots of practice for those tests. There are loads of websites you can find practice tests, this is the one I used.

Good luck!

As someone who applied to the scheme and was successful, the best advice to give is that the online tests are much like many other graduate schemes; verbal and numerical reasoning. The numerical reasoning (maths) is basically interpretation of graphs and performing calculations based on them. It is very simply GCSE maths, and it has probably been some while since you did this kind of thing, so don't underestimate how much how will need to brush up. I bought the following books (from Amazon but you can buy them from anywhere) for the tests:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1907558217
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0749454059
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0749448520
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0470753668

I also bought the following books for the general application process, not just for this scheme but others as well (where I was also successful):

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0470019034
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0470721014

Preparation and belief you can do it are key-I never thought I'd be among the ones lucky enough to be chosen, but I was and I'm sure you all can be too, best of luck.

It says in one of my emails:

'we will start contacting successful candidates from 11th January 2012'

but as there's a minimum pass mark for their numerical and verbal tests, im wondering if they'd tell people who are definitely unsuccessful earlier?

Just finished with the tests. Did anyone find the numerical reasoning test quite hard?
Haven't done maths since GCSE so found it quite tough!!

Yeah I thought the numerical reasoning was tough too. I was getting 80% on practice tests but only got through half of the actual thing...Just waiting for the rejection email now :frown:
