    Webitha, would be good if you could let me know when you hear back. I applied last night and I really hate waiting to hear for things like this! I'm a bit worried that I didn't answer the questions exactly as they wanted etc but will just have to see. How did you find the test?

    Well despite getting through I did not pass my first 30 questions. I was invited to answer another 25 and missed out by 6%.

    Hi lang8er

    Am sorry to hear you didn't get through... but do you mind if I ask you to elaborate more? I received an email today to say that I have passed, along with a contract, but, if I understand you correctly, do they monitor your work and let you go if you don't cut the mustard???

    I too want to top up my income while at home in the evenings, and **really* hope that AQA could do it!!

    Thanks!!
  • They've emailed me an application form but who do I put as refernces? Do they check these? Don't particularly want to put my boss or anybody at work down as a reference. Been there 5 years and before that at uni so thats not an option either.
    What did everyone else do?

    Hooray I passed the test. I chased them up today even though I only did the test on Tuesday night, and she emailed back to say I passed. Can't wait to get started, hope the 1st 30 questions will be up to scratch. Are the 1st 30 all checked carefully?

    Anyone else heard back yet from this round?

  • Yup I passed this round, 2nd time trying for me - yipee :j I am really nervous about the next lot of questions, I really want this job, so handy to fit in with our lives.

    I applied for the 82ask.com last November and never got a response. After all the hard work, calculating the umber of badgers required to fill the State building.
