    I think you just need to keep calm, there's no time limit, so just make sure you are following carefully and think about your answer.

    There isn't really a way to prepare as such, although it isn't a typical Maths set of questions, if you don't feel comfortable with numbers maybe have some practice in that area

    Hi, thank you for your replies! In addition to numerical practice tests, would mock case studies help?

    There is not much really you would be able to do to prepare, the material will be new so it's just being able to analyse what has been said. You're not timed and you can log in and out so there's plenty of chance to work your way through

    Will logging in and out affect your results evaluation?

    Is there a deadline for this to be done by?

    Stage 3 there will be some questions which require a video response and you will need to prepare for a time limit on these individual responses. London is closed currently. For the North applications are open until November 16th

    Thank you! I read online that London is open for March 2020 start - is this a possibility to apply to?

    Can I just ask where you saw this? It should just be 2019 roles not 2020
