Where are the best resources to practice and get good at NATS tests? And can anyone provide some assurance that they got in on application 2 or 3 even after failing miserably at their first attempts? Not sure about applying if they open this year but it's always at the back of my mind that I can only go for this twice more.
If your biggest issue was a lack of practice unfortunately you need to have a think on whether this is the career for you. The tests are designed to be taken without practice to find people who naturally have the skills to be ATC.
It’s not really something you can train and you’d possibly only be setting yourself up for failure in a few years time.
