    I have spoken to Oliver and he was helpful. But with the skills and drawing test he didn't want to give to much away. Have you attended the course? And if so how did you find it? Standard of lectures etc.. Thanks

    Doing one of the education degrees. The lads that come in to do the education degrees are expected to have the skills of a very competent LC student. Perhaps look at LC past papers.

    I know that depending on what you want to do, either the Engineering side of things with drawing or the construction side of things with drawing you have two tests to do.

    Construction Side
    Ordinary Level LC Woodwork bench test
    Ordinary Level LC DCG paper

    Engineering Side
    Ordinary Level LC Eng bench test
    Ordinary Level LC DCG paper
