I'll be there on the same day, and will have a full suit so you won't be the only one, but from previous experience everyone will do the same. If you're more comfortable in shirt and tie, without the jacket then, as long as it's smart, I'm sure no-one at CTC will mark you down for it, but don't worry about being overdressed if you do go for a suit.
Other than that, my biggest tip would be to get there with time to spare and to relax. I've always found the assessment days to be good fun, and that you'll perform better if you're not fretting about it.
Good luck,

Perfect, thanks for the information, at least now I know I can fully focus on the PILAPT tests instead of both that and an interview.
Is there a way to message you on this?
Thanks!
