If you call them, they will not, unfortunately give individual results.

Right, just got off the phone to them, spoke to a very nice girl who told me the results should be out today and the score of 89 as a minimum was wrong and it should have been in the forty's. The problem seems to have occurred when the CAO transferred all of the applicant details to them via a xl spreadsheet.

D'ont know if i would trust that seeing as i was told something different and they haven't been true to their word so far.

I'm not gonna ask them for my result! but if I'm not happy with the result I get, I will be asking for my test back, you are entitled to get it back under the data protection act!!

Hi All

I have just managed to find my candidate ID and thankfully it's the correct one (mine). My score was 213 but I added it to 233 so a huge difference. Not sure what to expect when the new emails come out - how can any of us trust them?

Also, how can someone 'fail' the personality test?? The very first one we sat?? I saw someone else only scored 8 and know someone who scored very low too. I thought it was impossible to 'fail' that one but does anyone know, can those scores be rechecked if they're no different when we get these supposed 'revised' results??

Well done to the ladies on Joe Duffy today if they're reading this too, you all did great even if Joe didn't have a clue what he was talking about lol x

clappyhappy

Just only heard about this on Liveline today, well done firstly for getting the boardies plug in, Joe didn't like it (he-he). But seriously back to all of ye, I think its disgraceful what has happened, in this day and age for such cock-up's to be happening is really unacceptable. I hope ye all get the results ye deserve, well done ;-))

This might be a bit of a silly question, but what is a decent score? That gives you a good chance of getting a place.

Storm Trooper Stu

That depends on where you want to get into. If last years results are anything to go by a minimum of around 215-225 would be needed. some courses needed as high as 240.

cc81

Thanks, thats not so bad , as long as my new results don't go backwards!

Cathy1h

I found the following info via the nursing career for you booklet and a publication on nursing boards ie, not sure how accurate, but it gives you an idea x

Last years highest score was 258 and Lowest was 176.

Scores required for St Angelas General = 234, Psychiatric = 214

Scores required for GMIT Castlebar General = 228, Psychiatric = 218
...
Quota of places for FETAC 2012:
St Angelas General = 1 Psychiatric = 1
GMIT General = 5, Psychiatric = 2

Quota of places reserved for mature code applicants:
St Angelas General = 4, Psychiatric = 5
GMIT General = 4, Psychiatric = 5

Hi all, I too sat the exam in Galway. Thank god I had the 9am one...couldnt have stewed all day!! Got on really well (i think) in all sections however only got 27 numerical Qs finished. Confident that those 27 are right but since Ive done the exam cant seem to relax!!! Minds working overtime...roll on may...:)

I got no email at all for an interview for mature nursing and I have seven years experience. Does this mean that I won't get called at all. I will be devastated if this is so....

Is there a contact number I can ring to find out what happened to my application. I got an email back in April with the wrong name on it for an interview in Cork (I live in Galway) They told me to disregard it but I have heard nothing at all since. It looks like I missed the aptitude test through their mis-management !!!

You had to go onto publicjobs.ie with your CAO number to get the invite for the aptitude test - print it off and take it with you.
I'd definately ring them, it sounds as though they didn't give you the right info at all x
