I have trouble in my left ear, I was told in my medical that the standard for driver is lower than for a guard.

When I did it in 2019 this wasn’t a test that was marked, it was just to ensure you can do reports, some TOCs don’t even do this test?

Was this the Written commutation test? I seem to remember this wasn’t a pass or fail?

No news is good news, I know some who have been rejected after SJT so sit tight. When I applied in early 2019, I don’t think I heard anything for 4/5 months.
