Thank you.
I will not recommemd you do that but if you want to be sure and for personal satisfaction you can contact a GCAA medical examiner and do all the tests at your own expense that are normally done for the class 1 but without getting the class 1 medical.
I would let the company take care of the paper works when they apply for your actual class 1 medical cause there are lots of formalities which you might not need to face.
Or else If you can in your home country you can do these following test that are normal done in a gcaa class 1
Full blood works including H1bac and cholesterol
Full extensive eye test with an eye specialist
audiometrry
Drug test
lungs pulmonary capacity test
full urine analysis
And pereferably general consulting with an internal medicine doctor...and don't forget blood pressure.
Overall if you can pass an EASA medical then you will pass the GCAA.
