Vision, hearing, drugs and alcohol screen. Weight and height. Then they strap you up to a heart rate machine and measure that.

Hope it went well, any other tips apart from reading the practice material? Difficult to prep for as it's all computer based

Think the practice material is all you really need as it gives you a good idea of what to expect. Don't worry too much about the computerised tests, as you said there's not much to do in the way of practice but they're fairly straightforward so don't worry. To be honest, for Stage 2, I pretty much focused on prepping for the MMI.

Lastly, on the day, trust your instinct and don't second guess yourself too much.

Hope it goes well!

Thank you, seen some threads and comments on MMI so will look into them as well

Does anyone else's careers page say End Of Process? What does this mean?
I haven't received an e mail.

When did you take stage 2?
Last Tuesday, so a week today.

Mine took a day or two but don't worry about times by all accounts I think there is one person dealing with all of it at the moment so they're super busy
Okay, thanks. Wasn’t sure if no news was good or bad. Lol.

Thanks for everyone’s guidance so far.
