Fair enough, so is it true that TEA part one the low tone is the tone played first and for part 2 do you just circle the double symbols?

You've asked the same question elsewhere lol and @OneLowban was very clear in his instructions in a previous thread.....

Bournemouth, great at least l will have someone to chat too.
I have applied for the vacancy but as I have already completed all the psychometric tests for another TOC already and passed I am hoping The fact I haven’t heard is because I don’t need to do the tests and can go straight to DMI.

Just wondering if an interview is included in the assessment day. Any ideas?
Each TOC does it differently I think. Some do the MMI and DMI on the same day and either way around. The only thing I haven’t completed is the DMI.

You’ll be invited back for the MMI if successful at the assessments with SWR. Unless they’ve changed it recently. I believe you do the stage one and two assessments on the same day, bar the MMI.

I think they have since changed it. I completed my computer assessments today and was asked if I was available this Wednesday coming to potentially sit a DMI.

I didn’t find them too difficult, but it’s hard to judge how well you have performed. The problem is there’s very little you can do in terms of preparation for them.

One piece of advice I found on here that worked well for the 2-hand co-ordination rest, was to not complete the practice examples straight away. It allowed me time to get used to the controls.

How difficult are they?
I did mine yesterday at Southampton. I really wasn't sure what to think but the 3 of us in our group passed.
The 2 hand coordination test is definitely a balance between speed and accuracy as I did go out of the track at least a couple of times on each test.

Been studying the practice material. It only shows 3 dials is that the most you can get?

No there will be more than 3 as you go through the real test. In addition you will get some dials with more than one number that you have to prioritise accordingly. The practice material is a good foundation to work on though.
