@planenut321 yeah, they'll post more dates later. But if you have time to go, you might as well go next Tuesday. There's no preparation needed for Stage 2 so you might as well try and get to stage 3 before Christmas

Stage 1
Hi guys,
Well done to inertia and planut. I was up same day but I'm guessing that's all the passes out and the fails follow??? Still awaiting mine. Is that how it works or can someone say that they got a pass later from the guys that attended the same day?? Hope so.

December Stage 1
Hi all,
I took the online checking test last night and received the invite this morning to attend the Stage 1 assessment in Fareham I've booked to go at 13.30 on Tues 4th December and am wondering if anyone else on here will be at the same session?

I was going to continue lurking until I got through to stage 2, but highly doubt I'll get there now. 
I spent more time concentrating on correct answers rather than ensuring I completed as many as possible - I only completed 28/50 and 31/40 although on the first paper im 99% sure they are all right, and 80% sure on the second.
I just hope they want a certain percentage of only the questions answered correct rather than a certain percentage of the whole test.
I was thinking accuracy rather than speed would be a better skill being in this line of work - can any ATCO's confirm?
Also, has anyone who made it to stage two done so with a low number of questions answered?
Thanks, Tony

Got my results and I'm through to stage 2. Congrats to all the others who made it. Unlucky to those who didn't, and better luck next time. For those who have had no news yet - don't panic! Your results will come soon I'm sure.
Well this Tuesday (4th) is slightly short notice for me. Does anyone know when the next bunch of dates will be? I don't really want to cancel everything and rush down there next week, but I'd rather not hang around til January either.
Assi... have you applied? Have you passed your online tests? If so, they provide all the information in the email they send you telling you to book for Stage 1...

Sorry to hear that sorinc3, will you re-apply?
I am waiting on my new Stage 1 result still. I am hopeful to get to a December Stage 2 if possible though Fingers crossed eh?
Assi, trust the system mate, they tell you all you need to know, and this thread tells you far more besides that if you read the last 50 pages or so.

Hi Phil,
Yeah I'll probably reapply next year.
It's unfortunate that we don't find out why we failed and what to work on. But at least we have the experience

Hi
I sat mine on 21st and spoke to them today. All successful candidate have been notified and unsuccessful ones have to follow. Sadly that's me.
Any one want to buy a sky test disc? Offers cost about £40

chejar. Well I spoke I HR today and that was what she said. I was on the 21st. If ur after that date then it may be different. I have sat it three times now. Passed that stage twice before and go to final stages. Not this time dip at the first hurdle so gutted.
