Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Hey Emz - thanks for the link - Those practice tests really gave me the kick up the arse I needed to start studying -- I never realised my maths was so bad - I only got 10 out of 30 on the first practice test - tragic -
I need to do some serious work on my math!!!!!0 -

I checked out that link aswell.
I have a really stupid question though...are they maths questions or simply understanding the passage? Do you know what i mean? Will the questions ever require translating mathematically to work out the answer?
I hope that makes sense.

I think I understand what you are saying - but maybe not lol
There is a verbal reasoning test - were you read the passage then anser true false or can't say based on contents of the passage
Then there is a maths test were you have to do maths calculations to work out the answer - so there are actual maths questions0 -
What about those particular samples on that link? Were any of them maths based?
I must sound like a real eejit, but if they ask true, false or cant tell for a question could it ever require any maths?
e.g... if a statement is made quoting a number e.g 1000 people, but this exact number is not used in the passage but e.g 10,000 people but 10% of this amount is what the statement is asking and oh my dearie me I am totally confused!!!:eek:
Sorry dark side, you must be confused now too. 0 -

Hi everhopeful - when you click on that link it gives you a practice paper for verbal reasoning
Somewhere on the writehand side of the pages there is a website address
www.assesmentday.co.uk if you click on that link it will also show you examples of numerical reasoning tests
These are different from the verbal reasoning one you saw in that - it will give you tables of information or graphs or pie charts and you have to do maths calculations, there are 4 possible answers eg £10, £20, £30, £40 and after you do your calculation you hope that your calculation is one of the possible 4 lol0 -

Well Done chick:) - Im all excited too i havent even gotten anywere yet! Wee question see the way you were mentioning the 3 mile run ( have actualy just bought a treadmil - what am i like!) is that not done when you actualy get into g'ville or will they be asking to run 3 miles as part of the selection process? Any help on this would be great 0

thanks heres a major stumbling block i need laser on my eyes aparantly wont get in with my vision im terrified now!
but anyway you dont get asked for the selection but they expect you to run it in GV from what ive read here its not assessed if you dont manage it they give you a training schedule to work on the assessed bit is that assault course thats on the deloitte website
i know i got a treadmill last year havent tried running on it but its great to build up stamina especially on rainy days or when you just dont want people to see you..no excuse not to exercise though lol :P read on here aswell that the treadmill can lie to you (naughty devil lol) and that road running is better but if you run on it then progress to the roads you'll do great! i love the t/mill there a blessing...good luck getting fit 0 -

have a nosey at the last page in the medical forum, thats where i found out so im currently demanding all information from them lol
i thought glasses were ok aswell but i think they only are if your prescription is low mines a -4 so for the unaided test it wont pass ive seen lots of officers with glasses ill just have to bite the bullet and get on with it! booked a consultation so ill see how that goes :eek:
thats good about your sister lol no more door bruises then hopefully i can get it done would be great not to have to worry about contact lenses for nights out and putting on make up!! 0 -

Oh i dont know what my eye sight would be in those terms I can see okish - but would need them for driving and seeing things far away if you find out any more info please let me know I might have to join you and get a consultant to check them out! Im going to have a wee look through the medical forum now!
awk you should be ok then, im never without my glasses or contacts things are that bad in the medical forum one of the girls suggested telling your optician and they'll know if your eyes will pass or not that'd be the handiest thing for you, but doubt you'd need to worry 0 -
