I have just completed the EU test for AD competition. And as it has been mentioned in other topics I have to say that compared with the EU training test all the test are more difficult. The verbal one the question is longer so if I would finish 3 min before in the Eu training test in the epso test I couldn´t finish 3 questions. Numerical test questions were very different but not very difficult if you are ok with math. And for abstract test was also more difficult than the ones in EU training.
I bought the full test pack almost for nothing to be honest. I feel I waist my money and my time. I think Eu training should compensate us in a certain way. Clearly test are out of date and they are useless.
Hi,
Hi,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We understand your disappointment with the exam and the tests. Our simulations are based on extensive feedback from EPSO candidates and on professional input from a Chartered Occupational Psychologist. We're confident that our simulation matches EPSO's style, level and complexity. At the same time, we're refreshing our database continuously, refining the difficulty level, including during the 2017 exam period. Despite your frustration with our services, we hope your exam will nevertheless be successful. If you'd like to share more specific feedback with us, please just send us a message via our contact form.
Best, David
Practising with just one
Practising with just one source has never been enough. Practising just a couple of weeks, either. I have no supporting data, but on average, I'd say one would need to practice about two months and with different sources (books, different online tests) to start getting good results. Very few people pass all stages of an EPSO exam the first time they do it. And this year in the generalist competition they went back to the kind of abstract test they used to do about 10 years ago. EU Training is not EPSO, they could not have predicted this.
juan, you have all the rights
juan, you have all the rights to be angry. since EPSO does not publish the exam questions, the trainers and us all have to act in complete darkness. this is the nature of the exam, this website is just a reverse engineering of the candidates´ experience. in my view it's quite a good training site and your money offered you a picture on what other candidates use as material. i remember the days when if you wanted to practice in advance there was only one book available only in a small bookshop in Brussels, but the exam was much more honest too.
