Invites are going out for FTE. Congratulations to those who have made it this far. Commiserations to those who have not. From looking at the booking system it looks as though there are 10 slots a day over 5 days? Or is it 20?

FTE
..and I've just recieved the bad news! I'll be practicing my BA mental maths for next year and try and learn the difference between squares and circles and learn my left from my right haha.
All the best for everyone else and good luck at waterside! It was nice meeting those of you on the last FTE assessment.

Funky111; There is only one way you would have looked at that booking system congrats & good luck![/quote
Sorry, I should have made myself clearer. I looked on the 27th and there were only slots in the morning. The 28th (which is the day I'm booked in for) was only afternoon slots. So what I am asking is did anyone have the option to book an afternoon slot on the 27th or morning slot on the 28th as I didn't have that option?

funkyt111: Congratulations - will this be your third year at Waterside? Fingers crossed for you, sure you'll nail it this time around. Back on page 149 am59fly was saying that he (as a CTC candidate) was offered morning or afternoon on 28th, so perhaps that is a shared day with all the morning slots having already been taken?
BaronVonBarnstormer: Also congratulations! It certainly is getting real - many aspects of my life are now holding pending the outcome!
LandingConfig/SpeedBird92/dreambig24/pjh2015: Oh no! I am sorry (and have been there) - but don't feel too bad about it, and use this as an opportunity to reflect on your performance and improve things for next year. You will have a massive advantage having already been through assessment once; there is no better preparation. This thread is also full of great advice - it takes a while to read the whole thing but it's a worthwhile exercise. Page 134 in particular has recent thoughts from myself and a few others around this subject.
Mlea3436/ManUtd1999: Well done and good luck!
On a more general note, has anyone had the opportunity to select an assessment on 20th or 21st? From the information posted here (which may well be incomplete!), the dates seem to be allocated as follows:
20th ?
21st ?
22nd OAA
23rd OAA
24th CTC
27th FTE
28th FTE+CTC
29th FTE+CTC
30th FTE+CTC
1st FTE

That was my understanding based on the available information - but to get a complete picture on this requires some co-operation as we can each see only the dates for our own FTO at the time of booking.
Thanks for the additional info; it is looking like the FTE & CTC dates overlap quite a bit. I was hoping to be able to meet some of you but the OAA dates appear isolated at present.
