CAST Tests Language issue

Hello! I have been invited for the EPSO CAST tests (verbal, numerical etc) which is good news. However, I'm not sure in which language will I be tested.

In my application, I have put English as my first language at a proficient level and French at a basic level. I thought that the tests are only in English but I'm now panicking what if they are in French and I won't be able to take them. Can you please help me understand how this works? I've started the preparation but in the same time I'm quite worried. Thanks a lot!

Why so many competitions are postponed what is happening in EPSO?

I checked a couple of competitions  (I'm doing transport) I was wondering how big a problem they are facing.

Seems like multiple tests are postponed and will not take place earlier than February.  In my understanding, they blame the outer contractor (the company who made the software where the tests are). 

 

What are your thoughts?  I heard the testing platform is slow and laggy, and the calculator won't work properly.

Notepad Numerical CBT

Good morning to all. I have a question about the way the Numerical - CBT test is organised and more specifically concerning the notepad where we can write during the exam.

From what I understand it is not allowed to use paper for writing and instead we need to use a note pad on the screen (the same as the calculator).

In the numerical exercises I bought from eutraining I only see the calculator on the screen. Could you please let me know about the notepad? It is important to get used to it as well. 

Thank you

I passed the CAST for Political Affairs. Ask me anything.

Hello, everyone! 

I received yesterday the much-expected email from EPSO, informing me that I successfully passed the competition EPSO/CAST/P/13/2017 Political Affairs / EU policies. 

First things first, many thanks to EUTraining.eu and your team! I can honestly say that I think I have purchased all of the questions available for mathematical and abstract reasoning. So it is good I passed the tests since I wouldn't have been able to train anymore through your website anyway... 

Economists Competition

Hello all, I am bit confused with the Economists competition situation. The retesting will be for all the candidates or just the ones that had technical problems? If it is only for the ones that had technical problems wouldn't be a discrimination against all the other candidates? They have more time to study and they already know how the outline of the exams.
