I'm thinking most people will have been in the same boat with the aural, it was pretty intense but at worst you had a 25% chance of getting the ones you didn't know. I've done A level maths and to be honest think i probably only got 2 or 3 wrong on the first paper.
The physics was strange....I'm not convinced the maths paper should have been more than an hour long but at least it had things to calculate.... A lot of the physics you either knew or didn't (ie the newton law one or the resistance in circuit) I think the physics was the worst for me but think overall I did quite well.... The thing with these schemes is your against a large number of people with good abilities so the pass mark could be extremely high!
I'm hoping to get through this stage but I think the next one is where the real pressure is on...interview and pilapt tests in one day... wheres the prozac!!!(is that an anti depressant or a stress related?!)
Good luck all, hope to see some familiar faces in early Dec! ( If I'm there and not in a local public house drowning my sorrows!)
p.s I know a few people there were pprune 'viewers' but didnt want to put things on here, this is what it's for and i think you'll find there arent as many spelling, grammer (oh my god cardinal sin...grammar) and general know it all's on this section as there are on others!

I am also through. Dead pleased because I thought my physics had let me down.
I'm back on the 6th December - anyone else got that date?
Looking forward to the Morrisby Profile - all 3 hours of it

Hi,
Got the e-mail from tim this morning. Yay!
So, writing essays, researching flybe and practicing how to cheat on personallity tests for the next couple of weeks!
I'm back on the 7th dec, not the 6th, so i take it there must have been a few of us got through to warrant the various dates. I heard someone say it was simply an 80% pass mark for all three papers in stage 2. Anyone know if thats true? Not that it matters really, just wondering what the odds are for phase 3.
ttoam
P.S - i hate PILAPT.

It looks like those who have got through have been emailed and the rest of us need to wait for the bad news by letter. Well done to all of those who got through I wish you all good look and success!

Tim emailed me without me emailing him.
I'm up on the 8th and am driving over from Bristol, probably the day before. Anyone want a lift? PM me.
Well done ttoam & Severo; all the best everyone else.
Has anyone ever done one of these morrisby profiles before? could you give us an idea of what to expect?

Well done to all of you that have got through, it’s well deserved after getting through that bunch of tests.
I guess the rest of us will just have to wait for the letter and open it gingerly hoping there might be that slim chance that it says “Congratulations” and not "Unfortunately you............."
