Would someone share their latest assessment day experience at CTC,, please!

[Fostex]

Is anyone else waiting for more slots to open for the FTE/Lampton Pk assessment? I was sent a reminder email from BA that I need to book a slot soon but none are showing as available.

[EZY_FR]

I would call FTE as soon as possible. I'm sure I was told that the 13th was the last available date.

[LandingConfig]

Also, the last of the FTE assessments are being held at Hilton Garden Inn, which is right outside LHR.

[Fostex]

I was in contact with FTE several times last week asking when more slots would be released. I'll give them another shout on Monday!

[All at sea]

So after initially feeling fairly confident about the assessment I am now very doubtful I got through. This waiting game is going to be the end of me. Pass the tequila.

[EZY_FR]

Know the feeling all at sea, I definitely feel like I flunked through the interview and the BA maths test in particular. I'm very doubtful I've made it to stage 3, but it isn't over until the fat lady sings! At worst, it's good interview practice.

[funkyt111]

I wouldn't worry too much guys. It's normal to have doubts after an interview. Most people struggled with the BA maths test. It's not an easy test and therefore everyone will find it difficult.

CTC

Hi, guys
I would like to know whether there will be any verbal reasoning test at CTC? I have heard from various people and not sure whether there will be one when doing the computer test. (From previous MPL assessment I did with CTC there wasn't one)

Also the Numeracy test you do, @EZY_FR stated that he did the 'BA maths', does it mean the standard Numeracy test for CTC is now changed in match with the FPP?

Thanks

[EZY_FR]

I did my assessment with FTE, so I cannot comment on the difficulty of CTC's tests.

What was the BA maths exam like?

[EZY_FR]

I can't give details of what it entails, since that would give everyone yet to do the assessment an advantage and BA wouldn't take too kindly to that. I personally found it tough. All I'll say is that make sure you're mental maths is good, make sure your upto scratch with GCSE maths.

@EZY_FR

The last part of what you just is giving other candidates a massive advantage....When you have attended the assessment yourself why would you want to give people an advantage to perform better than you??

[PPRuNeUser0207]

I meant is it done without a calculator and is it multiple choice

[PPRuNeUser0207]

Thank you, I was under the impression it would be.

Yeah my bad, I've made the required changes. And to answer your question jumpseat, yes it is multiple choice.

Has anyone heard from Oxford a more specific date than 'mid-April' to hear back?

[DavHdd]

Unfortunately no ... I guess we've just gotta keep wainting until the bell rings

[nickbrazel]

I spoke to Oxford last Monday and the lady said to expect an email within the next two weeks (from when I spoke to her) - how reliable that will be I don't know!

What did the other schools say to their candidates?

[DavHdd]

I think finding out when is the last day to take an assessment at CAE for stage 1 will tell us when to expect a feedback ... Everybody has to go through the selection before any FTO can start evaluating candidates'performances
