    Hello are you still doing this!

    I am freaking out about abstract reasoning! :((

    I am in North Tipperary

    Yes we still are giving each other a helping hand. The abstract reasoning is a bit of a nuisance alright. Did you join our facebook page? Practice makes perfect. Practice tests can be found online if you google them, I put up a few links on the facebook page. Link to the group is in my signature. :)

    Abstract reasoning
    http://www.west.net/~stewart/lsat/practice-questions-analytical-reasoning-1.htm

    Verbal Reasoning

    Thanks very much, have been doing the practise tests supplied, abstract im getting 6 out of 6, verbal 4 out of 6 but did get 6 out of 6 this evening. I just want to try a different version of it, the word 'Connectxx' is getting to me now :-D

    Actually the link below is even better, they are the actual practice tests for the abstract and verbal reasoning.

    Yea you need something other than the actual material sent. A few people never spotted it. The google links are different but good for an extra help. :)

    Congrats to all who got through to stage two! For those that didn't, keep trying! ;)

    That's a shame. Yea it's my second time applying. I got caught with the numerical reasoning. I never liked maths.

    Screw you numerical reasoning!

    Thank god it wasn't in this recruitment

    Stage 3. Also, numerical reasoning hasn't made an appearance in 20 years, so I don't doubt that it may re-emerge.

    Well done :D Band 2 happy enough waiting game for me tho! :)

    Just thinking about the news about all the bugging and problems in the organisation... There hasn't been any news on the fact that nearly 25000 have gotten results today... that 12000 have been placed in bands and could be the future of the organisation!

    Kind of sad :(

    I noticed that too, but at the same time its hardly newsworthy. Very important for the applicants of course, but I don't think the media will not be reporting on this until the next class is taken in!
