Hey Paraskevoulla!

Really? Cool ! It's nice to have more Cypriots around

Well i went through with the application in August! And in September i got an email stating that my application has been processed and that i will get an invitation for November.

I contacted yesterday and said there is a waiting list so if i don't go in November i will get invited for January.

So when did you apply? Are you studying anything else right now?

I sent my certificate of visual performance two weeks ago and today I received an email stating that they will contact me for the phase 1 test.

How reliable is the railway service in Belgium? I'm currently planning the route to Maastricht for my phase 1 test. There are only 20 minutes between the train arriving to Liege Guillemins (from Bruxelles Midi ) and the train from there to Maastricht.

Belgian railways and "reliable" in one sentence?
You must be joking!

Seriously, I'd try to get an earlier train if possible.

Yes, it is normal. Wait 2-4 weeks, then you can ask them kindly if they have received it or not.

Sigh ... you know tehblizz, it actually might be helpful if you tried reading the info they provide on their website first (check the FAQ's on ATCo recruitment):

Hold a certificate of secondary education showing that they have successfully completed studies at advanced level (university entrance).

Dear Moira, thanks for answering me and sorry if I wasn't specific enough in my question. What I was asking is if there was an actual grade limit in your diploma, for eg. here in Italy your high school diploma can go anywhere from 60/100 to 100/100, and I was wondering if they put a limit to that (for eg. not less than 80/100)

thanks again

Ok, seems like I misunderstood you then, scusa! I think it would be best to just call them directly if you want to get such specific info.

If I recall it correctly, "back in the old days" 70/100 used to be the absolute minimum for tests during training, anything below that was a no-go, so I would somewhat expect them to require similar minima with regard to your high school results.

For now: in bocca al lupo!

Hey, everyone!

I am currently applying for ACT in Bulgaria. I've been reading the formun for qiute a long time now and I would like to heartly thank everybody posting info about the application process

I have a question regarding the FEAST simulators: are feasttest.com and Skytest easier than the real FEAST? Furthermore, do you reckon that feasttest.com is generally easier than Skytest?
I payed for feasttest.com and I've been practicing on it, but I can't help thinking that the tasks there are not at the level required...

Thanks in advance and good luck to everyone applying for Eurocontrol
