    What date was your test? Mine was 14th.

    I had a feeling they would be coming thick and fast and early.;). Mine will maybe be here soon then. Not hopeful at all.


    Mine was the 12th, you'll be grand, wee buns to you pyg

    Are many people getting their results early? i did my test last week so technically should be waiting till about 21st june for my results...hoping they come earlier though coz i cant wait any longer and its only been a week ! lol

    Im dreading incase ive failed by 1 mark because i didnt get the last circle in first paper coloured in properly..and i was 100% sure it was the right answer as well :mad:

    mind u i imagine ive failed it miserably ! lol

    Got my letter just under 2 weeks early and passed. Was sure that I hadn't as the mark was so high and I guessed the last 4 numerical ones! Got to really knuckle down for the ac now!

    Commiserations to all those that failed.

    Well guys I got my letter today and it was really early too and I am delighted to say I PASSED :D. To be honest I found the IST tough as you have no time to check answers and when I heard 55 was the pass mark I said no way but like I was told make sure you answer them all.

    Anyhow enough said lets move on to preparing for the Assessment Centre.

    Congratulations to all who passed and for those who didn't keep the chin up.

    I had my IST on 12th of May and got the letter this morning, saying that I've passed! I'm over the moon now, because after sitting the IST I was quite nervous and man, it was tough.
    A friend of mine had his IST the same day, but his results haven't come yet. But it seems, that it won't be long for the ones who took it a bit later to get their results back.
    Congratulations for all who passed, and BEST of luck for the ones who are still waiting!

    I heard a rumour about another recruitment campaign in September?

    ...Although I'm quite sure it's simply that, a rumour?

    Unlucky mate, I wouldn't be too disheartened about it. It was a really tough test, just give it another shot next year.

    Yes I do! Unfortunately as I recall I was drinking something fizzy as I read that - some of which proceeded to emerge from my nose, whilst I tried to extract oxygen from the rest. Picture a dragon with hiccups....:D
