    remember there is no negative marking, so you don't lose points for a wrong or missed answer. Most people (I am told) will not complete the test in the 2 hours so try and relax and concentrate on each question rather than rushing to try and get more answered. I am also assured by a friend who sat it 2 years ago (and got an excellent mark) that you will get a higher marl of you skip completely the units that have you stumped and go back to them if you have time later.

    thanks for that advice Traveller. I was wondering if it was better to leave something if you were unsure or have a go and get it wrong. I made some silly mistakes because I didn't read things properly last night but it was about 9.30pm so my brain wasn't functioning as well as it would have been.

    I will try and pop on here after my test and tell you how it was in reality. So nervous!

    Just in case you get a chance to see this before your test this afternoon, it really wasn't that bad. You get 10 minutes to read through before you can start writing, so you can answer the first questions in your head during this time. The hall that I was in was quite chilly so wear something cosy. And arrive early to avoid standing in a queue for registration for ages.

    The test itself wasn't too bad. Just read through carefully before you answer and you will be fine

    Best of luck!

    well I think that went very average
    I don't particularly feel very good about it. I didn't finish it, I had 4 questions I didn't get time to answer. I don't think I was 100% confident with any of my answers but I spose thats the whole thing with most of those sort of tests. Anyway will have to wait now till the 15th to see how atrocious my score is!!

    I'm sure you did better than you are thinking. I'll be right here with you in your agonising wait though.

    Anyone else just sat the stat?
