    i didnt have a medical and was placed in the WRAG.
    others get placed in the support froup without a medical.

    the fact that you didnt need a medical means nothing and you will have to wait for the DM to reach a decision

    Your medical could be either WRAG or SG or you could get marked down as a Failed to Attend and your claim will be closed (yes it does happen exactly like this).

    Yes I understand that, I didn't have one last time and was put in the support group.

    What I was really getting at was she gave me the impression that I didn't need to be assessed, she even said I shouldn't have been asked in, so was thinking is that an indication they are going to leave things as they are and has anybody had the same experience?

    I didn't fail to attend so don't see how they could do that.

    You can't take it as an indication of anything, except that you will pass into WRAG or SG. Assuming you don't get put down as failed to attend.

    Nobody does see how it could happen until it happens to them.

    it isnt the ATOS hcp that makes the decision though.
