Sorry great northern

Siraning,
According to an earlier thread, someone said it stays at 32k throughout training period and once qualified ,you get 63k. Thats for GN.
I'll let someone else second this!

 

[Twotwo]

Twotwo or anyone who can answer,
Have you done your medicals?
What is the BMI cut off , if there is one?
I was just thinking I always have a higher BMI due to muscle mass I was told by doctor some years back .
Is this checked in the medicals?

Hey, don't worry about it. I'm in the obese category according to my bmi haha and it wasn't even a issue. I think as long as they can see your healthy and able to move easily then it's not a cause for concern . It's just a crap and out of date calculator to measure people's weight lol

I have a colleague who applied at TL in 2019. He had his DMI interview 8months ago. Have you had your DMI?

Yeah, about a year and a half ago, just before the lockdowns. Passed it, now just waiting on the MMI.

Ok! Possibly pandemic was one of the factors. Hope you hear something positive soon! All the best.

Hi all, I have my DMI for GN this Thursday. I’ve already passed my MMI with a different TOC. I wonder whether that May speed up things in terms of starting training

Are you confident REMI ?

 

[siraning]

Are you confident REMI ?

I'm an optimist

 

[soxiez]

Does anyone know if you're able to change more than one of your answers for the MMI? I've come up with much stronger answers (imo) compared to what I wrote down on the assessment day now I've had time to think about them. I'm assuming they'd let you change 1, but is it possible to change a few?

You can change as many as you like on the day before the interview. You get asked if you want to.

I wasn't allowed on mine. Had to stick with my original answers. Luckily it wasn't an issue. Hopefully they will with you.
