The DEP scheme is not competitive like the FPP. If your good enough then you'll end up in the hold pool. There are 100 places up for grabs on the FPP. Giving information to another candidate about what to expect at the assessment will disadvantage other candidates.
This is debatable in my opinion. Inevitably there are a limited number of places on the DEP as well (BA have recruitment targets they are trying to meet, after all). And in previous FPPs they haven't taken the originally quoted number anyway, which - to me - implies that if you meet the standard in the FPP then you'll make it. In addition, 100 places is more than on previous intakes as well, furthering your chances of success this year. So I think the best approach is to see the other candidates as potential future colleagues, rather than competitors trying to derail your own chances.
Good luck to everyone at Waterside.
