Just taken dfft only managed about eight or nine questions despite working very swiftly as took time on one with a few faults

Confident those answered I got right but worried I didn't answer enough

Clearly twenty is impossible

Think different TOC's use different pass marks.

Was told for LOROL we needed the higher pass, I managed 13 and started on 14 and got through.

I don't think anyone knows the pass mark but I did a DFFT with FCC 3 years ago. I certainly didn't get very far through (can't remember how far) and now am a driver so you'll probably be fine! :)

15 minutes went very quickly

I actually quite enjoyed the test but the last question I only part answered as I noticed the fault with the greatest priority I put the wrong way round it was a train with three faults I think. I was delayed checking my answer that said felt like I answered loads and was surprised time was up so quick

You had to really concentrate on the detail especially the battery dates

I also Made sure my answers were with the correct train easy for the eye to wander to a wrong diagram

Let you know how I do passed everything else to the companies higher standard so hoping pass this additional test

Passed :D

Goes to show quality over quantity with this one I think that guy who failed on eight (become a driver thread) probably made too many errors as I didn't answer many more and certainly don't remember answering ten..enhanced assessment as well

Its definitely quality over quantity with this one - you hurry them and you'll make mistakes. While I doubt you get marked down for wrong answers you obviously score lower!
