Hola FAinbaires...I just went through the medicals and got my approval and am leaving October 27th so hopefully I can help you out a little.
The only time I was asked if I had any marks on my body was in the final interview...and I told them I had a tattoo on my lower back, which didnt seem to make any difference at all. During the medicals, no, no doctor had to state if we had marks of any kind, it wasnt on the forms, so you dont have to worry about that.
As for when you get to Dubai, I have absolutely no idea, maybe Elly can help us out with that???
I dont even know if Emirates has a uniform part that shows the top part of your arms...I doubt it and if they dont, it shouldnt be a problem.
Either way, go to the assessment day with a positive attitude. I am here in Brazil, so we are neighbours...good luck!!! Hope to see you in Dubai!

About scars and tattos, does the doctor have to say u dont have any?? or is it only that u
cant work for EK if they are visible while in uniform??
I have a scar on my right upper arm cause when I was a child i cut myself up!

it'd be noticeable if i wore really short sleeves... And I've heard that might be a restrain to work for EK. Is this so? Do they also check you when you get to DUBAI???
If someone please could answer me this I'd be really thankfull!
