In my country but as far as I know it all goes through Brussels no matter where you do it. I just wanted to know what experiences people have.

@atcgirl

Great, good luck at Phase 1!

Haven't got any dates for Phase 2 yet so atleast for the group I was in, it will probably not be around Nov 19th. Does anybody know how many groups or people they are planning to invite for Phase 2? If they are still running Phase 1 invites and the course is supposed to start in spring 2015, they better start finishing the selection process in my opinion.

Well, I asked a lot of questions because I'm all the way in America so I was curious about how many times I would have to travel. They said they are finishing up the testing beginning of December.

Thank you !

Since I'm flying from the United States I had a lot of questions for him and how many times I would have to fly back, etc. He mentioned that they will be finishing up the testing beginning of December.

Turns out because I've already done a feast test (with NATS) I had to fill in a little consent form and then they sent off to NATS for my results. They said it wouldn't take long but it's been a week and a half and if it's true that testing will be finishing up in December I'm a bit worried they won't be able to give me an interview in time?

Did anyone else go through this same process and can tell me how long it took? With any other provider of the test, not just NATS?

Thank you.

Hello! I had my first FEAST test yesterday, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what is the minimum percentage that you have to acomplish on FEAST to pass? Do these selection procedures usually work on basis that everyone who gets over that minimum on FEAST test goes to second phase, or do they select whatever number of people they want with best result? I am sure I correctly answered on at least 80% of questions in FEAST test, do you think that is enough to go to second phase?

Phase 2 invitation?

Has anyone received their invitation for Phase 2 testing? I haven't but I talked t someone who received it yesterday for testing in end of Nov. I passed phase 1. Should I be worried if I don't get an invitation or should I mail Imke and ask?

What do you guys think?

Phase2

I would definitely be patient. As you can see not everyone is getting invitations or tested at the same time. My phase 1 test is on Monday, November 17, so they are still finishing up phase 1 testing. And will probably start phase 2 when everyone is finished.

So now FEAST Battery Tests are P1, FEAST DART is P2 and MULTIPASS is P3?

Offcially, the battery and the DART Tests are still P1. Thereafter the multipass as P2 and the Interviev followed by the medical.

But many candidates say P2 to the DART because they split the Tests in the Morning and in the afternoon.

@PredatorZg :

Should be Fine. I was at Phase 1 on monday and had also some conflict advisories plus some sums that I entered wrong or numbers that I forgot.
However, I just Received my Invitation for phase 2 on the 10th of december.

Maybe someone else is also attending that day ?

@hougaard :

Yes we got through the DART Test together
So until now 4 of us passed, 1 didn't and about the other one from germany we don't know.

My phase 2 will be on 10th but I think we should see each other at our "modest" hotel.

Good luck
