I'm from the 4 October and still no answer.
Is there someboby who sat recently stage 1 or online test?
I have the feeling that no more people receive invite for stage1. Maybe NATS has enough people for November courses.
The expected bad news just arrived after 14 days. I didn't make it.

Me too. The longer i don't hear the longer i am thinking it is bad news. Although i wasnt hugely optimistic after it....in fact i didnt know what to think (I couldnt decide whether i did ok or not!).
I heard back the next day when i passed Stage 1..

@eptesicus
yeah i'm getting a little worried, although it's still only a couple of working days gone so far, so it's not so bad.
i also heard they had technical difficulties over the last day or so, that may have affected either our results or them sending them out to us.

Congratulations was your stage 2 on friday? I just got email didn't get through I'm not sure if it's worth applying again as I understand stage 2 is something you'll either pass or you wont isn't it?
I've applied 2 time first time didn't really give atc test credit for what it was flicked through the test materials on a sunlounger on holiday and thought ah I'll wing it. This time I could recite al 28planes and all their info from memory but failed level 2 which I thought went prety well apart from the number sorting.

rr9 - just do what NATS tell you in their email, and the stage 3 info sheet. When I failed my Stage 3 I was confident that if I'd focussed more on that, and less on "additional" preparation, I would have got through.

stage 2/3
@snowdude, yeah i was there on friday. i think you can practise and get better at these things, but it's true that i've always had a knack for spacial awareness games etc, so maybe it's a little bit like you either can or can't do it. i certainly wouldn't wana rule anyone out though, if you work hard i'm sure you can train your mind.
@sambatc, tbh they haven't told me a great deal, and i don't know what you mean by the stage 3 info sheet either. when i got my email today saying i'd passed, i got another one from them but it was completely blank. i'm wondering if that's a technical issue from their end and there's info on there i need to know. i'll give them a call in the next few days to see if they can explain it.
