Rokkala,
Got my stage 1 in a couple of weeks and had a question on the format of the tests. Have read the post Pat42 made after sitting stage 1, but still had a couple of questions. Are the motivation and s/d/t papers multiple choice or just written answers?
Also, saw no mention of a numerical checking test at stage 1. Is this only tested within the pre-stage 1 SHL tests now?
the stage 1 tests are all multiple choice. the motivation paper gives you a choice of 4 answers and the same goes for the s/d/t. You get a scrap piece of paper though to use for rough working and calcs during the s/d/t
There is no numerical test on the day now. The tests are the motivation paper, s/d/t paper, the cubes and the diagramming with the boxes (there are examples of the last two on the NATS website).
hope that helps,
good luck when you go!
