What I will say is that the AC coaching I went on was worth the money and it gave me a different angle on how to approach certain tasks in the AC itself. If you feel it would help if say do it.

Stay focused and calm ( i would recommend a red bull if you are able to take it! dont lose concentration, there's no reason why you cant finish the IST within the time frame

Hi E18, It was yea, same process as it is at the moment, you do it online then again at the AC, had a quick check of my emails and really happy to see I have my feedback from it. If you're wondering the feedback isn't tailored to you individually, just gives you your result and the pretext of what you were actually doing, a good memory refresh!

It was still the data card test in 2015 as it was marked out of 75!

However there was also parts of the test done online, perhaps it was just the SJT or the verbal reasoning test, it was again tested at the AC. The data card test was just done at the AC...if my memory serves me correctly.....which it already hasn't , although I do remember it being particularly difficult. Yea apologies for getting it wrong, clearly my memory doesn't stretch back perfectly 3 years ago
