    Sorry for the delay in replies guys... That's what I thought and why I was fairly confident about using it at the time, now they've got me thinking it clearly wasn't a good answer, don't be worried though, I'm sure you'll be fine, most people here are clearly passing I've just done something...

    Hi Stigy, thanks for the reply! Yes that is very helpful :) Your example is very good, I can see why they would like that as an example. My example is rather boring, I'm currently a HGV driver and I used the example of just getting to my destinations during the bad snow weather we had and...

    Hello all, I heard back from the OPC today about why I failed my MMI. The person who phoned me wasn't the lady who interviewed me, it was a man, he had access to the interview notes though so he was able to provide me with an answer as to why I failed. He says the area I failed on was question...

    Cheers guys :) Yes Stigy it’s my first one, I believe this means I have to wait 6 months before applying anywhere else? Yes hopefully the feedback is specific and helpful, I hope it’s not a generic reply! :)

    I got my stage results today, I sadly failed the MMI. It has an email address I can email to get feedback on the test so I'll email that, not sure if they'll provide much though. I'm gutted but not as upset as I thought I would've been, I kinda expected it, I did feel like the MMI didn't go too...

    Yeah they asked in the DMI which I would prefer, they went through some of the differences with them both and I picked HH, sounds like I would enjoy it more, although I would of course be happy doing either haha :)

    Yeah I got the impression when there that Crewe is particularly short and in need of drivers. Also @Nishhh, I I’m curious on that too, on my stage 2 someone said that in their DMI they told them they do provide a hire car for the training but I’m not sure of the specifics, whether it’s for...

    No mate Crewe is my closest, I live in North Wales. Who did your MMI? Was it 2 ladies conducting your stage 2? Names starting with J & S? (I don't want to mention any names just in case lol). Hahaha 2 months is painful although at least you know you're in and have a job lol, I could be waiting...

    I’m in the same boat mate, I had my DMI and MMI at Crewe 3 days ago and I’m down for Crewe, I live 1 hour 10 mins ish from there and they seemed fine with the distance. The last 3 days has gone slow! Hahaha

    Congrats on getting to the medical stage! Hopefully I'm there one day haha. At first I thought the MMI went well, everyone else came out of it all stressed and saying how bad it was, but I came out feeling fine and feeling how it wasn't too bad, but not long after I realised some of my answers...

    Freightliner Various Trainee Drivers

    Thank you both :) Hopefully it went well, we’ll see. I’m not too hopeful about the MMI, I feel like it didn’t go amazingly, I was last up too. The computer tests weren’t too bad, the first one with the grey square wasn’t nice, it wasn’t difficult but it’s just painful to sit looking at a...

    Congrats :) Like @Seejwalker and @Lendog2012 have said, the practice material they have sent you is sufficient. There is software available for free on the forum though for the Group Bourdon test which is useful - https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/group-bourdon-tool.156417/ Other than that...
