Ya. I'd imagine it goes by when you registered or alphabetical order or something similar...

A different test perhaps ?

Very doubtful.

It's just some genius of a reserve was talking to another reserve who just so happens to have his exam during the same period, then decided to announce his theory of reserves have it on one date and non reserves have it another date.

Is there any reserve on here that hasn't their exam Friday - Monday. Just to clarify and end this theory....

Also. Good luck to everyone

I seen a group on Facebook and they are asking when people's times are and if they are reserves, as if the batches are distinguished in that manner. It won't make any difference for the aptitude. Do they think that they reserves are going to get extra points or what haha.

Not at all, like I said, I'm looking forward to it and would rather get it out of the way so I can study for Monday but unless I can get time Saturday evening, it'll be Sunday

Good luck 4P!

I don't think so. I've an exam on Friday morning then straight to work, work on Saturday and an exam on Monday morning so I'll probably do it Sunday evening, I'll do a few practice runs first and then jump into it. I'm actually looking forward to it

You mean you will be waiting to see what others say about it here first!!

Monday to Thursday here too, I think we're okay with dishing that bit of info? I'm not a reserve either

I got my email earlier today, are all applicants designated a specific time frame to do the tests then? I have been given dates to do the tests by, and reading some of the posts on here seems others have been given time frames that aren't the same as mine? just a query happy enough with my times!

Different times! Otherwise the site will crash if 25k go on at same time!!

They do it in order of your canditate number. I.e in order of who applied first when it opened in December

That can't be right, I only applied on Jan 7th, I'd imagine I was one of the last to apply

You mean it used to be 1 for 1?

This weekend!
I registered in 09. Maybe they're doing it in that order?

Ya it used to be one for one but it was easier before. 15 different paragraphs with 4 questions each. So that's 60 questions and you had 30 mins to do it. No tabs just a plain paragraph in front of you, I was doing samples before and getting in the 50's. As for now!

Don't know what way they work it but I sent in my application about 1am that night and I'm this weekend.

Might be just random who knows, best of luck with it.

Same to you. I'm at my wits end looking at the sample material.

I have a sneaking suspicion (or hope) that it might be a bit easier than the sample verbal. If you look at cut-e's website, it appears they seem to cater largely towards professions/ graduate positions. Hopefully the garda verbal won't be so hard.

I'd say the abstract may be a tad harder.
