    Yes, but the scoring on the Situational Judgement questions appear to be what's making the difference between everyone here.

    How many hundred do you reckon will be called for Round 1? and how many over the whole two year time frame might be contacted?

    OOM is in the 2000s, even with 2 years it’s probably unlikely.


    Congrats to everyone!

    Got almost identical scores on numerical and verbal reasoning. I'm kicking myself: I was far too complacent approaching the verbal test after doing quite well on a supposedly similar test in another competition.

    Anyway OOM in lowish 200s, so we'll see.

    Thanks for all the updates and advice here, everyone.

    Best of luck all!

    I achieved a Total Score (Verbal Reasoning and situational Judgement): 864 - Is that a high enough score to be called for an interview?

    Hi, I just got my results and passed each section. But my OOM is 1,432. Which seems like crap. The email just said that the first batch will be called in September 11th week of. I'm thinking I should just forget about it with such a crap ranking. Does anyone know?

    It's unlikely you've placed well with that score. You need to have a low OOM to progress through the next stage, unless people drop out, or don't follow up when they are notified of progressing.

    13XX OOM on the Open. Happy enough as I made the panel and only in the CS a wet day. I think I'd be disappointed if I was there a couple of years though.

    I'll tip away on brushing up my interview skills anyway. Probably won't reach my number but at least I'll be somewhat ready.

    Got OOM in 900s 😬 Not expecting a fast response but with them crying out for EOs (plus if some turn down the role, so don't lose hope all) hopefully that'll bring it down a bit.

    Good luck all. Please keep us updated with interviews and where they're at with OOMs.

    Unreal, seriously. The difference between choosing adequate and good or good and very good answers could have got you. This is wrong. Actually gutted for you.

    Also the numbers are very close this year! A friend of mine scored 50 points less than me and is 360 behind me on the OOM

    Amazing that just a difference of 100 points equals a difference of 800 on the OOM - must have been lots of people scoring in a very narrow range of scores

    Not expecting much from this comp but will have qualified for the interdepartmental one next year so will have two rolls of the dice

    Also - am I right in thinking a positive interview can still impact your OOM? (so reduce it/get called sooner) Think that was the case for the TCO panel anyway 🤞

    I think I've a fair understanding of the whole process but quite unsure of the Interdepartmental/Open. Do they flip flop between the 2, every hundred or so? Or do they exhaust interdepartmental first and then onto Open?!
