    Well worded reply. Also when your speaking on the phone try to relax, I got caught up in the nerves personally and that's the only thing I wish I had more control over. The interviewers are nice people (well at least the one I spoke with was) and seem to be able to pull any additional info out...

    No, my application is still in process. I'm probably getting ahead of myself to be honest but I want to be as prepared as possible.

    Hi guys, can I just quickly pick your brains regarding the tests for Northern please? What tests are included in the psychometric please? I'm practicing the GB test already but is there any others I need to practice? SCAAT or similar? Thanks in advance
