EPSO COMPETITIONS

Does anyone know how they will score the upcoming AST computer based Multiple Choice Question test? 

For example 3 years ago I have taken part into an AD competition and in that case we had four tests (Verbal reasoning, Numerical reasoning, Abstract reasoning and Situational judgement), the minimum pass marks had to be achieved in all tests in order to qualify for the next stage of the competition, however only tests Abstract reasoning and Situational judgement were used to calculate the total score.

Will it be a similar thing for AST?

Hello, I have a question concerning the packages for CAST. Since CAST FGIV and EPSO AD5 are apparently of the same level of difficulty, does it mean that someone who is preparing for CAST FGIV should buy package for AD instead of CAST? I am afraid that perhaps CAST questions could be easier than those I will face in CAST FGIV... I would appreciate an answer, thanks in advance!

Hey everyone!

Today I have received the notice from EPSO that unfortunately I did not pass the MSQ test for Visual Communication Assistant, which had one of the lowest applicant numbers (around 300) I have seen.

My results were, as received, following:

Test (a) :   Verbal reasoning: 8.000 /20 (pass mark: 10/20)

Test (b) :   Numerical reasoning: 7.000 /10

Test (c) :   Abstract reasoning: 9.000 /10

Total for tests (b) and (c):   16.000 /20 (aggregate pass mark: 10/20)

Hello,

I open this thread to comment about this competition, Research Programme Administrators (REA/TA/AD6/01/18), to be elegible to work at the Research Executive Agency (REA).

Although just finished the Assessment Centre tests from AD5 generalists, one never knows... I will apply for the "Engineering, ICT, Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry and/or Space science", with 30 positions at the reserve list.

Regards.

I was browsing through your training packages but couldn't find one specifically designed for Linguistic Assistants.

Which do you recommend? The Linguist package or the Assistants package?

Thank you.

P.S. I would also like to know what happens in the case of a repeted purchase of a question package. 

Do you guarantee that all the questions are going to be new or not?

Hello,

Is it possible to find somewhere language comprehansion tests to practice in Bulgarian language?

Thanks!

Dear all...Am I the only one that realized a problem on the test of IT literacy? According to JO of EPSO it should be different from those we buy from eutraining. If you go on samples in EPSO website, you get a different test from those in eutraining. 

Hi everybody,

The indicative planning says that the second testing period for the computer-based multiple-choice tests is from 19/03/2018 to 05/04/2018 (CAST - Project management).

Do you know if there will be a third testing period for 2018 as there is no the deadline for the application ? Or the second is supposed to be the last one this year ?

Thanks in advance for you help!

Is it possible to get more help on the “Organising and Prioritising” questions? I can’t figure out how to get to the right answer on a few questions and the explanation given is not very detailed, at least not for me. Is anyone willing to help? Many thanks in advance. 

Hi!

I am preparing for the EPSO AST/SC testing - Basic IT literacy. To which version of Microsoft Office do the EPSO questions relate? I suppose the EU Training questions relate to the same version.

Thanks!
