    Wishful thinking 1599825790 Its not just your CV you should look at. Your answers to the 69 questions should be rounded and covering the question fully. You could already have a good cv and 69 answers but if you score well but not well enough you dont get past that point.

    The shl tests are only used for one thing. To reduce the applicants down to a manageable level. Think of it like this under normal circumstances you would think 50% is a pass mark. Whatever NWR has set as the minimum bar that is the pass mark. You do the tests and you get told you have met the...

    Dont want to piss on anyones chips but I have a feeling that york campus will stop all courses to protect the ROC staff from corona. The silver lining is with so many signallers being in the older age category corona will create plenty of vacancies. God help us all.

    Thanks for the reply. The chance to re sit is the full test. It would make more sense to re sit the ones that were wrong only. Maybe this company should be thrown into the mix for a new provider. This is the one that I mentioned that does public services learning. https://learnpro.co.uk

    What makes these tests bad is at the end you get told the percentage you score for each section but not what question you got wrong. So it leaves you unsure given that usually theres 4 or 5 questions on each section. It would make more sense to have to go back and redo the questions that you...
