Ditto! Have also passed the assessments + medical so in theory would be straight to interview pending passing the SJT.

Today is the day for me. I'm now on my way to Stratford. Why do I have a feeling if imminent doom.

I feel like I've prepared as much as I can for the MMI. The tests I'm sorta ok about, but lets see.

Good luck mate!

Keep calm and on your MMI just be yourself , listen what exactly you're asking for and just answer it!
Keep us updated!
Don't worry!

I've got a horrible feeling that I'm on my own today. Everyone else here is for an induction. I'm the only one doing the drivers test.

Finished computer tests. Slightly worried about my ATAVT, plus my hand twitched during the 2 hand test.

Haven't found out my results yet, but I'm not massively confident.


Update: we both passed the tests!! MMI this afternoon.

East Side.

Right my MMI is in 15 minutes. They say they'll with results regardless of whether you pass/fail.

Think I've hit some solid examples, but let's see.

I'm assuming it's based on the nearest depots you picked on your application.

Right MMI is done & dusted. Wasn't as intense as expected, it's a bog standard competency interview. I was in there for exactly an hour. Felt like 1 or 2 of my answers were slightly weak, but let's see.

I cheekily asked for feedback & all she said was 'it was a good interview'. But either way I await the call tomorrow or Wednesday.

Don't worry. I made loads of mistakes in my 2 handed test and still passed.

In any case, it's not always a case of you have to complete all of them.

Same here. There were at least 3 occasions on my assessment centre day where I thought I'd messed up and I ended up passing.
It's easier said than done, but try not to beat yourself up over errors you've made - you may well have done better than you first thought

Sorry to hear that. I'm still waiting for the phone call. It's so nerve racking!

Group Bourdon is the real PITA. As you've passed that and now know what to expect, I'm sure that you'll be fine next time

I haven't heard either mate, have you gotta assessment pass already?

I don't even know. I did download like I believe was in the earlier posts and saw the score but don't know if it's a pass or fail
