AQA successful applicants??

Quality of answers is important on the review, speed doesn't matter.

Its hard but don't focus on speed to start with, the content is much more important. My SR told me that 1 failed review means a warning, 2 means a in-depth chat with senior staff and 3rd is possible termination. Ultimately it depends a lot on what you are failing on, if you are blatantly ignoring the rules and giving shoddy answers then they will get rid of you asap.

Without straying too far from AQA, anyone got any tips on answering the unanswerable question at Texperts?

Oh god, I've just got my test through. I really really don't want to mess it up. I'm almost too scared to do it!!!

I've looked at the first question and don't even know how to answer it - it's one of those 'what should I do' type questions. Oh god.

I just had the application test back. I haven't opened it yet but that's because I haven't got excel which it says you must have. Is there an alternative? Also, has anyone seen the application form? Some of the layout I don't understand. There's one bit that just says: Yes No.

Who have people put for references that don't have employment history?

The email says

Students who have no employment history can provide contact details for their tutor and a lecturer who can give a character reference

So maybe if you are not a student you could find two other character witnesses.

This brings up a question, do they actually contact your references?

Use https://www.openoffice.org to get very good software for free which will read the Excel file no problem (remember to save it in Excel format as well before you send it back).
