Me too :)

They might want to mix the OPC assessments up a bit, as people go into the tests nowadays knowing so much about them! If those tests were timed though I’d have stressed out haha!

Yeah 3 parts for me..Core Skills Abstract Reasoning Test Part 1/2/3! Must be testing different ones out of different people haha!

Actually...there were only 2 on part 1 that I just couldn’t figure out haha! Part 2 & 3 aren’t too bad either. Glad that’s done now haha

They’re wrecking my head haha

Yeah that’s I’m going to do, when I eventually get the email I’ll give the OPC a call and clarify it before I do anything else haha!

I do back myself, I have done since the start but if you fail then it overrides the current pass you have and you can’t take the same test 3 times meaning train driving can no longer be your career. Coming along this process I thought they did the MMI until I received the email telling me they...

Thank you so much for your wise words. I and others were actually just pointing out that Avanti make a point of choosing to do a different interview style to all other TOCs which in turn penalises every other MMI pass if failed. I’m sure many in this position wouldn’t take the risk of doing the...

Anyone just received the ‘YOUR INVITATION TO ONLINE ASSESSMENT’ email? Nothing to do with the next stage OPC assessments though haha

They haven’t told us what exactly we have to retake or how they are working it with the MMI/CBI so we can’t yet. As soon as I get an email I’m going to ring them and find out and pull my name out the hat at that point.

I have to agree!

Yes I’m guessing it works both ways. Why they all can’t stick to just one interview technique baffles me!

I think it means let’s say you’re in the pool for TPE who do the MMI and you pass the CBI for Avanti, the MMI pass for TPE is erased meaning you can no longer be in their pool. I’m going to wait for OPC to confirm any of this. Seems a bit backwards!

That’s so so wrong! Why can’t they just say MMI and do different pass rates like the rest of the exams wanting enhanced pass rates.

I thought it was in addition to but apparently it’s in place of and if you’ve passed the MMI but decide to take the CBI and fail it, that then overwrites your MMI pass. Which sounds so stupid! If they’re saying it’s 2 different interviews, it should be classed at that and you should have 2...

A lot of people have been going through this process for years, doing the exams multiple times, so you kinda pick stuff up as you go along haha

They only have to give you 7 or 14 days (can’t remember which) for the practice pack. So they’ll send it in due course

Competency Based Interview search for it in the threads, tells you all you need to know :)

But it does say...”we may need to place your application on hold until such time when we are able to accommodate larger gatherings of individuals.” So there’s more than 48 but that’s the first sift and then the rest are in the pool waiting for their assessment invite/date. Guessing they’ll do...

I’m guessing so! That’s amazing!
