Thanks very much. Have since been told that my maths wasn't high enough even though my overall score was ok! Gutted.

It's laid down on the RN website here, within these downloads: Naval-Publications | Royal Navy

In addition to the "all-up" score there are usually minimum scores for many jobs in individual sections regardless of the total score, especially with regard literacy and numeracy. It's theoretically entirely possible to score 99/120 correct overall but underscore for any job and alternatively score 0/30 in two individual sections, but still pass.

I recently applied and currently awaiting a date for my RT, any idea how long this normally takes? I only recieved the email today but was just wondering how long I have to prepare for it? I know there's alot of really good info on this forum but any tips would be greatly appreciated!! Cheers

Hi, i was phoned by the AFCO about 2 weeks after the email, they gave me 2 dates to choose from.

Hi Luminox, cheers mate, they've been in touch and I have my RT on 23rd August!! Really bricking it now :-/ I believe the hardest part of the test is the time limits rather than the questions themselves.....

Ah well, we'll see

hi chris, i passed my test early july , its not that hard,but the time does put you under pressure.If you get stuck on a question guess the answer and move on!does anyone know when the interviews for SG2 begin?checking my emails everyday but still no reply,starting to think im not getting in!thanks.

Recruitment said the closing date was the end of Sept, so I'm guessing you wont know until after then, how long after taking the RT did you know if you'd passed/failed?
