Bond Bond Medicine: General Discussion

Has anyone’s status changed for the bond medicine test within QTAC? Mine still says processing of this information has not yet commenced. Just getting a bit nervous seeing as last year people had an idea if they would be receiving an invite for the test a couple days prior to the emails being sent out
 
i entered the webinar for bond medicine the other week and it said there is a 2 hour cap on the psychometric test this year? does anyone have a source to confirm this ? and how long has it taken past students?

What I've read on this forum by past students is that the psychometric testing is composed of two tests and each test should take about 30-45min :)

ETA: However, I am not sure if we would be put on some watchlist or something if we went a bit over...

Ok can confirm after calling up, there is no time limit. The bond people said they did hav a couple ask about the 2 hr cap, but according to website it says no time limit.

Did they mention the webinar being recorded?
 
The webinar was recorded and emailed to people who registered. This year they changed the psychometric test provider so maybe the new provider does have a time limit but the old one didn't?

Also does anyone know when the deadline to get the invite is? I know they start at 2pm but when will the last ones be sent out?

I thought provider is still the same according to previous posts I’ve seen
 
If you look at Bond's website under FAQs it gives a link to a different provider.

Its still the same exam, I reckon you should aim to be in the 2 hour mark regardless if its timed or not.
Because on the actual Bond website it states:
"Please allow a maximum of one and a half hours to complete the test. Both assessments are untimed but should take approximately 40 minutes and 30 minutes respectively"

Who is the original provider?

Yea that's what I believe as well, the webinar probably was talking about giving your self 2 hours to do it. Doesn't mean there is a 2hr cap.

Okay look no one knows if its timed or not, I would assume the provider is gonna time it but I don't think are gonna automatically end your exam if you go over 2 hours.
 
The Dean said in the webinar this year it is timed for 2 hours but it wasn't in previous years and it normally takes 1/1.5 hours to do
Yea but I don't think it means you have to complete both tests in two hours, I assume... from what Bond people just told me. that's just a recommendation
 
Also does anyone know when the deadline to get the invite is? I know they start at 2pm but when will the last ones be sent out?

They haven't listed on their website when the last invitation to the test will be sent out. As you mentioned, all it currently has on their website is that testing invites will be sent out from 2pm onwards
