Instructions on the test state you MUST go left to right only , you will fail if you don't
Not sure about missing some half way through a line , I presume your finish point is where the last strike is ,
You are told "change"
very quickly & promptly & you just need to get cracking on the next...
I'm not sure of the pass mark but I passed this last week as part of my assessment day , I personally didn't find it that difficult. The instructions are very clear on the test paper, you have to follow an order in which the faults are set out as most important to least important and list the 2...

Wow only 1 out of 14 ! Well done you , there was 7 of us on the day and 4 of us made it through. 2 got sifted in the first round and 1 was sifted at the last sift which was a shame as, as a group we had bonded well throughout the day. Southern do seem lengthy with the recruitment process however...
Oh god I didn't like that test lol ! & admittedly at one point I thought I'm not going to pass that ! I actually think those 3 computer tests at the end were probably the hardest, you need concentration for these and after doing tests all day you're starting to feel it though probably that's why...
Hi Mandy , best of luck for tomorrow, just relax ( I know easier said than done lol ) I left my nerves at the door for once ! & just kept positive thoughts, have a decent breakfast before you go to get your brain working, once you start the tests it's quite full on but you do get breaks when...
